Hi there,

What I want to do is calibrate system so that I can meter K-System specs (Bob Katz).
Spectral PC, Nuendo 3.2, JBL LSR4328 + gear....is the setup. Room is small and with Auralex treatments.
I am all new to this digital measurements thing...
It used to be simple 0VU now is a bit complicated. I do not trust MOTU meters. Never had a need for calibration cause studios where I worked were already set up good. Generaly gain stages in my setup are a problem, and I don't like that.
I'd like to calibrate and measure the frequency response of the total system and mains.
Most of my problems are in the room where the system is (my friend's palce), first I want to correct levels and metering and after I will do detailed acustics in room. At the moment there is no $$$ for anything else. I know the modes of room and problematic frequencies so that is not a hudge deal to correct. And JBL's are handy in the setup, it has EQ!
Settings in REW are a bit confusing and in CueMix too...I played around with MOTU and REW few days ago
and it seams that routing was a problem. Next time I will play around bit more.
JBL Calibration is first and that is easy.
MOTU calibration is next.
Main out to ins 1&2 back (without pres) or 1&2 front (with pres) + REW ???
So if I connect Main OUT and Analog 1&2 back...REW needs to show both in settings - wright?
Well REW shows Main Out but for Input shows only Analog Input...and I guess that actual Analog Inputs are on front.
MOTU is not showing all ins and outs in REW. CueMix should show Main Out.
So correct way is MOTU Main Out to Line in 1&2 front, CueMix Main Out, REW Main Out and Analog in.
Correct me if I'm wrong. If that is all ok, setting levels with SPL meter should be easy, or it might not....we'll see!
After that I will need some guide for the rest.
Any ideas for settings in REW? Is deffault setup ok or do I have to change any settings?


Thanx,
