Interesting thread... The problem with DRC of course is that it negates the black art of the acoustic treatment guy...:o)
...and anyone (that includes a few people on this forum) who have used real-time DSP,convolving filters/modelling etc knows that with enough computing power you can do pretty much anything. I've been doing both for many years and...DRC wins for me. However, I've just realised something - like a random thought from space... When I moved house (3 years ago) I didn't re-level the gain controls on my treble and bass amps before measuring the room response and re-applying the DRC - doh! It's going to be a long weekend. I'm probably applying way too much DRC to correct a mid-range suckout that mostly is of my own making (double doh) Thanks guys for triggering that epiphany!
