I'm using a Rane PE17 for a parametric; do you have any tips for me on using REW and manually entering filters parameters into the PEQ?
I would say that the only caveat reagarding the Rane would be to select the FBQ2496 as the type of Equalizer in the pull down. This results in the filter values being given in octaves. This would be consistant with Rane that has an octave analog dial. If you select the 1100P it gives you the values in bw/60 (not what you want). The other equalizer selections are displayed in Q. You could convert, but why bother. Just use the 2496 as the type and I think it will be close.

You will have some trial and error because your dials are analog, but measuring only takes a second, so no problem...
