Mr. Robot, I don't think there is a way to assign a default processing mode to a speaker preset. I think the best way to accomplish what you want is to set up two separate inputs. One for movies and one for stereo music. That way you can set the defaults for each input to the speaker preset and the processing mode that you want. If you are using your Oppo as the source you can use one HDMI out for the movie input and the digital output for the stereo input. Most sources will have more than one way to get the digital output to your RMC-1 (except AppleTV 4K) and you can use these separate outputs to create more than one input. Then you just change inputs and you have all the settings you want already set up.

I have my RMC-1 hooked up, but I haven't had a chance to play with it at all. I'll be doing the firmware upgrade this weekend. I'd like to thank Emotiva for sending out an email about the critical update. I was already aware of it since I've been following this thread, but it was still nice to receive. I have one request to put in on the firmware download process. Can the MD5 be provided so that we can verify after downloading and putting on a USB stick to make sure there aren't any issues? Reason I ask is that the beta firmware was 26MB and the new one is 19MB. That seems like a big difference in code in binary format.

Regarding the size, they completely re-wrote the detection algorithm for the DSP, but an MD5 would be nice

eventually I buy rmc-1 or 2 depend,but now how you make the calibration because not have dirac for now.
thank you

Which prompts the question ; early on the parametric eq was problematic ; has it improved to the point anyone has tried a calibration with REW yet ? Or is it tagged a 2nd tier problem which is understandable ?

Lonnie, I was thinking more about the chain of troubleshooting questions and your final comment "I wonder what algorithm they are using".....Prior to the latest FW, the RMC did understand the algorithm and played all my Atmos and DTS-MA files without issue. Help me understand why the update would take a step backwards and no longer be able to interpret those sound formats? We completely re-wrote the detection algorithm for the DSP. So this means there is a particular format that we are missing in the detection scheme. Thats all. Hhmmm, seems like another "QA Opportunity" ... :-)

Or is it tagged a 2nd tier problem which is understandable ? PEQ filters are working great for me. I used REW to calibrate when I was on v1.1.4 and the results were amazing. Only applied filters to LCR for now. Level adjustments were enough for surrounds and heights.

Getting RMC-1 (with 1.2 installed) delivered tomorrow. Very pleasant experience with EMO Tech Support.

Measure out the distance of the voice coils to the primary seated location and load that in. I then set my crossovers based on the speaker capabilities. Then I run pink noise through each speaker and adjust the PEQ for the response I want. I can usually get it done with one to two PEGs per channel. I know we put 11 per channel but i've never used more then a couple per channel. Hope this helps. Lonnie

Funny. This thread has gone very quiet lately. For a while, it was going up by a few pages per day. Now that these units are quite stable and almost bug free, there's not much left for people to complain about. The WAF on mine skyrocketed after the 1.2 update.

Lonnie,
Any chance we could convince you to post a status update of the known issues currently being worked on? 1.2 was a giant leap in many ways, but I’d love to know what’s on the top of the list? Possibly how soon we can start enjoying DTS movies again without dropouts?

Tim Anyone still having issues may be scared of being banned or pounced upon for slander. Since you’re an owner. Can you please answer whether you can make multiple inputs using the same HDMI input ?

Pretty sure it worked with the umc-1 but was left out on the xmc-1.

Halo,
Emotiva when will you start selling RMC-1 internationally? Thanks

I believe they are referring to "virtual" inputs where you can create multiple user inputs using the same "physical" input. This was one feature I loved about the UMC-1 and they've never implemented it since...

This was one feature I loved about the UMC-1 and they've never implemented it since... O.K. I do have a UMC-1 but I forgot about that. Basically you can plug anything into any HDMI slot or audio analog or digital input and then formulate a virtual input with a name you like that spells out all the physical connections for that input. A physical input can be used for more than one virtual input. I could see this being useful in for example a virtual input called 'cd play" that calls up the bluray player with just two amps triggered on vs having another virtual input called 'BD movie' which calls up the same bluray player with all amps triggered on. Nice feature, but come on, folks here just want a RMC-1 that works for what it was programmed to do. The time for operational suggestions is long past.
