I have a DNA SC48 processor, the factory presets are downloaded off the website.   

I’ve got a lot of gigs on my SM80’s and have made a couple small tweaks to the settings but they made a big difference to me when I first got the processor. 

I’ll find the document they’re from and post it or the settings tomorrow when I have my laptop at hand. 

The SM80’s do sound great, but they are not Danley’s smoothest box, out of the box.

Some heads have built in movement programs you can access from the onboard menues but those may or may not be anything like what you want. With a DMX controller you can get the effect you want but usually not with the cheaper hardware versions, to get smooth movements requires a controller with built-in movement macros(a shape generator). I have 2 hardware controllers here that can do this easily.. the Blizzard ProKontrol MH and the ADJ WMX1, and just about any software based system should be capable of doing this you just need an interface of some type. I haven't used the Vibrio software so can't comment on that specifically but I have tried to use another architectural software package recently to control moving heads and it wasn't terribly successful.


There is an open box WMX-1 on eBay save a few bucks.  It is a super nice box and you can plug your hazer (if you don't have one get one, it's a must) and par/wash lights into it in addition to the automated fixtures.   


Here is a video of it in action https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/WMX1--adj-wmx1-standalone-dmx-lighting-controller

Further to Caleb’s comment, the factory processing on the SM80 involves quite a lot of midrange reduction.  Might be interesting to get another ear on it with the appropriate EQ in place. 

Either way, congrats on the new rig; it sounds like it’s suiting your needs.

Interesting, where did you find the factory processing settings for the SM80? I have never seen or heard any mention of this in the op guide, spec sheet, or on the Danley website.
For the listening test I ran them flat, when I used them I had a EQ preset that I made myself that had a very slight boost at around 2K and a very slight cut at around 300Hz. I want to emphasize the boost and cut was very slight.
The SM80 always sounded very good to me with very little EQ. Of course I was using channel EQ on the input sources. I've had several BEs run my system over the years and I always asked if they applied much EQ to the Danleys. The answer was always no, they already sounded fine. I used the SM80s almost exclusively outdoors.

There are rare reports of the DNAs having problems as well.  Anything can break.

No processing, EQ flat, 100Hz high pass filter was engaged on the QSC amp powering the SM80

The SM80 needs EQ at least, otherwise it will sound harsh.  It's a bit unfair to compare a raw speaker (IE, not how it will be used in real life) to a heavily processed speaker. 

I do like the dispersion pattern of the Meyer better; I just wish they used 12" drivers instead of 8".

He was a very different kind of person and musician.
Grace Shaker might be my favorite album ever.

Just curious if you had any processing on the SM80 for this test?

As boburtz pointed out (and I don't know how he got away here without the username Bob Urtz), it's the GS108T that's the managed version.  The GS108 is unmanaged.


If you were Bob Urtz you could put your name together too.  Some people are above the rules.

Worth noting that the GS108PE v3 is the same as the 108T v2 except it has 4 ports that supply PoE.
