Hey there,

To send filters to your device, select "BFD Pro FBQ2496" under the "Equaliser" pull down menu. That should take it away from the "generic" device and start to interact with yours. You may have to do some setup on your machine, and hopefully that will be listed in REW. The 2496 is a little different, so you may have to experiment to get the right means for it to accept communication from REW. If you find that absolutely nothing is going on after all that, try swapping the MIDI connections. Mine are labeled "in" and "out", which, in my case, is from the point of view of the PC, not the BFD.

I started to describe octaves and BW for the BFD, but I found that I'm not 100% sure of how all those relate. I thought I did, but doing a little math and looking at the filter outputs in REW left me unsure. However, if you go into REW and play with those numbers, and look at the resulting "corrected" sub output, it will give you a very good feel for how it will affect the original curve.

My apologies for not having a better answer for the bandwidth thing. I'm sure brucek will know. And I'm sure it's in the manual/setup guide for the BFD. I believe the BW stuff will apply to the 2496 the same as it does to the 1124.
