It has been a part of the software since DSP PC-Tool v2, so pretty much any DSP they have sold has the ability. It is far more refined now, for sure, but they can all do it.

Regarding the auto-EQ - someone above mentioned that it is only capable of auto-EQ'ing using 31 bands of graphical EQ - is that correct? So it won't adjust Q or freq if/as needed like a true parametric auto-EQ? Not saying that is a huge issue - just trying to understand it's capabilities.
Thanks.
Ok, so right now, with my current setup (DSR-1 DSP), I really should be reducing the sub output channels on the DSP since it's capable of 4V output and the sub is only capable of 2V input? Obviously, it's "working" as-is, even without me reducing the sub output channels on the DSP at all, but I guess I run the chance (even if remote) of the sub clipping the input signal at louder volumes. Do I have that right? If I have that right, then that means I would need to lower the output on the DSP and increase the gain on the sub (in this case the sub and sub amp are all in one box since it's an under-seat sub).
Just making sure I understand properly.
Thank you!
We're talking the maximum in and the maximum out, so only at the absolute peak of a transient would the DSP overdrive the amp, assuming the DSP was set at its very max as well. This is one of the best problems to have, btw. Excessive gain from your source is just confidence that you will not have to bring your gains up much. In a musical situation, the chance of this peaking over is extremely slim.
So did the Helix auto-EQ simply make graphic EQ adjustments? That’s what I got when I played with it. Nothing wrong with that, if that’s the case, just curious if I did something incorrectly.
BTW Nick, I sat through the Helix seminar at KnowledgeFest (with Julian & Florian) too. Recognized you there but failed to introduce myself & say hello. You gave me some phone support several months back on an Illusion C8 with shifted motor.
Thanks!

That was me. I’m still waiting for confirmation that the Auto-EQ is limited to graphic EQ changes only, or if there’s a setting to enable parametric changes in the Auto-EQ. When I attempted using it several weeks back, it gave good results sound-wise, but but all changes were at the standard 31 preset center frequencies and no Q adjustments were made.
When I ran my helix dsp i used the auto eq all the time and it really does a damn good job i absolutely loved it
