Just got the IKMultimedia ARC3 for my mixing system. It flattened out the low end (had a huge bump at 50Hz) and raised up the high end. Let me know if there are glaring overall issues.

What I did do was re-amp it through a little Home built Fender Champ clone I have sitting here Mic'd with a cheap mxl R40 ribbon that was all set up and added that to the existing sound I had. You can hear the difference in the intro where the Bass is all alone.
Is it overly bright or have to much low end?
There is a big change in the EQ on my monitors and this is the first time I have attempted to use it. My ears are a bit messed up from such a dramatic change, see attached graph. Greens are before oranges are post ARC3 EQ.
Thanks for your input!!

Now I ear the defference on the Bass and It's better (the last revision) just a last check..... try to use a complemetary eq between kick e bass to improove again the lowend.
If you are not sure of your monitor system help yourself using a Earphone that you know comparing your reference song to check the way of your mix.
