By purchasing this video series you will automatically receive access to my crossover design video series. 

This video series walks you through step by step on developing a passive crossover. The format is point of view (POV) using my iPhone 13XL Pro, which allows visual instruction on every aspect from rigging up a test crossover, critical listening using test tracks, and use of various software applications. 

The video series relies on the use of ARTA measurement software which can be purchased for $100 USD here. You can download the software for free here but you cannot save with the free version. 

The other software used is free:

Hardware Requirements 

  • Measurement microphone and/or mic preamp (measures frequency response)
