Re: New 2496 not behaving


There could be any number of things you're doing wrong.

I first have to question your filter (-36 dB at 60 Hz, 0.1 Q). The width of filters for the 2496 and 1124 (when selected as the equalizer in REW) express their width in BW and not Q. Do you have the correct equalizer selected in REW?

Be sure the filters are engaged in the eq and not in BYPASS mode.

Either way, the best method of establishing the validity of filter correctness in an eq is to play a single SINE wave with REW (easy to do with the signal generator) and select that frequency for a filter with the equalizers front panel (none of that wacky midi stuff) and set an appropriate bandwidth and start attenuating and observe the audible effect. You'll know pretty quick if it's working.
