First, let me say (as if you can stop me), I have found REW and the info here and on the avsforums to be absolutely awesome. I just finished successfully equalizing my sub with REW and a BFD pro.
However, like a couple folks in
this thread, I had no luck getting REW to transfer the filter settings to the BFD via a USB-midi interface. I am pretty sure I had everything set up properly (having been through the bfd and rew guides and this forum and the bfd manual), but when trying to send 12 filters for a channel, all I end up with was 11 filters with no change and one filter with some random changes that had nothing to do with any of the 12 original filters I created. I entered the filters manually.
From what I've been able to gleen from the net, this issue seems uncommon. As easy as it is to manually enter the filters, this is a trivial matter, and does nothing to detract from the superb REW/BFD experience. But, of course, my inquiring mind wants to know. I am running an intel laptop on AC power and Windows XP (service pack 2) with an M-Audio Midisport UNO usb-midi interface. I have never used such an interface before, but the drivers appeared to load fine, my laptop recognized it, communication seemed to take place with the BFD, and i even went so far as to manually enable the midi and store functions just before sending the filters. Has anyone got any more thoughts/info on this issue?
