still no idea what these are designed for compared to other funktion 1 products. studios? bars? small clubs? live bands? bedrooms? outdoor parties? do they have to be installed by Funktion1? Are they all about mid-range with a fundamental for vocals? Compared to Genelecs why would I choose these for my studio, or are they trying to be something else? This video is vague and all about what it was like to experience the development of the product.

Funktion One's are still the nicest speakers I've heard, and I had the pleasure to play on a set only one time. Epic speakers, heard of them from Burning Man )'(
@@Hardishcheese in fairness I’ve got a soundlink revolve that sounds nice and I use an S1 pro as a DJ monitor and it’s fantastic for me doing bar gigs…. But I was always disappointed with the pro rigs I’ve come across in venues. Weirdly it was always not enough mids years ago, with too much bass and harsh top end. Funktion one are a completely different level however so the OPs comment is pure bait
Just something else. L Acoustics or d&b are highest quality made for the road, programmability and flexibility. Evo X speakers just sound amanzingly real and down to earth. I would love to have them in my Studio as my mains.
Agreed, it's a different tool. L-Acoustics has developed and iterated extraordinary state of the art line array systems. They are very good at that. Function-One has developed and iterated extraordinary point source systems. Different tool for different applications.
No. The Turbosound Aspect range was jointly designed by Lawrence Dickie, Jon Crawley and Danny Cooklin. Danny and Lawrence now work on two companies - Vivid Audio and Blast.
Furthermore, Tony Andrews originally founded Turbosound and designed the Flashlight and Floodlight ranges before the company was sold. He then set up Funktion One.
Funktion One is the shittest PA brand available. Any sound engineer that knows what they're doing immediately gets depressed when they find out they will be having to use it.
@@apersonontheinternet8034 You don't have to be a sound engineer, you have to be a human with the understanding of a pure and spiritual music experience. It's not about power.
@@faraonch I never said anything about power. I'm far more interested in audio quality and accurate reproduction of the source material. Function One makes anything played through it sound like utter shit.
Fortunate was I in my younger days to work with TurboSound and then Funktion One. I have not heard anything better since in the live sound reinforcement space. I am almost convinced that the modern love affair for line arrays is one of economics rather than love of quality sound reinforcement. Even got to work with a Res 9 here or there years back, monumental.
That sounds so biased. I have worked with both as well, and have done several setups with Newsham as well. I like the older Turbo for live sound, but the F1 stuff just does not work at all. They have really poor resolution, and they really struggle with any kind of music that has any kind of complexity. If you have never heard anything better for live than F1, you have either not heard much, or you can't hear.
@@AB-80X I wasn't clear enough in my original comment, perhaps it would make more sense to you if I said I only really did it for dance music type gigs? Live sound implies bands which I don't have much experience of (I should probably have said sound reproduction pertaining to dance music) which might be the root of the misunderstanding. For the applications we deployed it, typically large dance music events be it in a field on the Isle of Wight or in the NEC in Birmingham it performed well to my ear. I am not saying you are incorrect but it is rare to find someone who doesn't like Funktion One for this application.
What is your opinion about meyer sound Denley sound amate audio coda audio and void acoustic. Ok fine u may be best but where do find these brands as compared to you
@@unknownregions5014 Stop yourself right there. I have also seen Tony’s videos. What I talk about, has nothing to do with any of that. I have worked with those systems for years, I have also worked venues where Newsham set up the systems with me. Source material? We’re talking live audio here. Fact is that F1 systems struggle a lot of any kind of music which has a complex sound structure. A track like Mau P’s Drugs From Amsterdam will sound fine, but if you play say Vini Vici Distorted Reality and it completely falls apart. Now try a rock song and it gets even worse. I have stood the night before an open air classical concert phoning in a Meyer system after having spent half a day trying to get the Evo 7 system I was given, to sound good for what we were doing. There’s a reason why you don’t see them at live shows and why they are losing traction, and it is not just from a lack of marketing.
@@AB-80X They discontinued it some years back, sadly. They still do the Mini Bass 212 which is similar in design, but it’s not the mac daddy Infrabass 218 🙁
