After buying one and setting it up this week, I'm thrilled with the results I'm getting in a 300 seat venue (converted movie theater). If you don't understand many of the techniques used in pro audio, the manual is not going to enlighten you very much.
Educate yourself on the strengths and weaknesses of Butterworth and Linkwitz-Riley filters, and which works best in different driver arrangements.
Use the graphic auto-EQ function to see what the mic hears (use an RTA style electret omni). Use the crossover out gain and the parametric EQ to adjust for the trends you saw on the auto-EQ graph.
Just like any EQ, gross adjustments will cause audible phase-shifting. Use as sparingly as possible.
Avoid the compressor, limiters, sub synth, and feedback eliminator.
If the drivers on your speakers aren't on the same vertical plane, you can use the band delay to time-align them. (.0734 msec/inch)
