This quote from AVS about the RMC-1, "Room correction is provided by Dirac live, and runs on all 16 channels with a 192 kHz sample rate. This feature alone makes the RMC-1 a dream machine for obsessive AV enthusiasts seeking the best possible sound quality out of their system." My question is, will the Dirac Live that I have purchased for my XMC-1 be applicable to the RMC-1? Said another way, will I have to pay for a newer/different version of Dirac Live to use for my RMC-1? Or, does Dirac Live come with the RMC-1 and not an add on? Sorry if I missed this somewhere. How many settings will we be able to store on the unit itself? Maybe selectable n the fly?

Unless I am wrong, I think Emo/Dirac offers one Dirac live license per machine /per buyer... Under these circumstances, the same buyer cannot use the license of one XMC-1 on another XmC-1 that he/she owns. If the buyer purchases a second XMC-1, that second one needs to come with its own license (for the free version). If Dirac full is desired for the second one, then it must be bought.
If these assumptions are correct, then I seriously doubt that one can use one Dirac license attached to one XMC-1 on a new RMC-1, unless the terms of the Emo/Dirac Agreement change.
Of course, if these assumptions remain the same, then one should normally expect a newly purchased RMC-1 to come assigned to one proprietary Dirac live license, and to offer the buyer the option to purchase one license of Dirac full.
That is what I have understood regarding the terms. If I am wrong, I am sure someone will correct me.
Just in case, this is from the Emo/Dirac page (If you see any loopholes that enables one to use an XMC-1 license with another one, please point me to it)
Terms and Conditions:
Dirac full for Emotiva will only work with the Emotiva XMC-1 preamp/processor. The 10% e-club discount does not apply to Dirac Full for Emotiva. The 30-day trial period does not apply to Dirac Full for Emotiva. It is a final sale item. If you return your XMC-1 during the 30-day trial period and you also purchased Dirac Full, you will receive a refund for the XMC-1 only.
Your Dirac Full for Emotiva key will be sent to you via email approximately 1 business day after your order is processed. Emotiva distributes keys Monday through Friday during business hours only.
Not the Original Owner? If you purchased an XMC-1 on the used market, the license for Dirac Live LE for Emotiva is not transferable from the original owner. If you’d like to use Dirac Live capabilities with your processor, you will need to purchase Dirac Live Full. Dirac Live LE is not sold separately.

Dirac full is limited to two installs on a computer, if needed one would have to email Emotiva to have their key reset or something along those lines, it has nothing to do with the XMC-1 itself other than only working with the XMC and not the RMC or the EMP-1 that was supposed to be launched, I'm assuming the RMC-1 will have it's own version of Dirac Full.
I could take my laptop with Dirac installed on it over to my buddy's place who also has an XMC-1 and run Dirac Full there

Dirac comes with the RMC-1 and is not an add-on. Same with the XMC-2. It's no longer $99 if I remember correctly.

It's a little too early for this discussion isn't it since the RMC-1 is still months away from reality?

I thought everyone knew the RMC was going to be a statement product costing 5K. I could have sworn Big Dan posted this here.

SO for 9.1.6, I assume they use two of the subs outputs for two of the height channels?
