Can I just say hi, good to find this place.
I'm from the Uk and have a project music studio. I have a nightmare space to mix in (nearly square with a low ceiling) and although I have lots of broadband absorption I'm still not happy with the sound coming out the speakers (commercial mixes). My mixes don't translate well, on my net machine however (in a house with a hifi amp and cheap monitor speakers) I can easily make good sounding mixes that sound good on all systems. So it must be down to the room.
So here I am.
I'm reading the instructions and although I have a basic digital spl meter (AZ 8928) I don't think it will be suitable for the task at hand. So do i need to buy a radio shack one? What I'd like to do ideally is run my Neumann U87>avalon 737sp (preamp)>motu2408mkII(soundcard) to take the measurements, would this be possible?
I ask because the inputs on the motu2408mkII are adat lightpipe, fed from a mackie d8b mixer so it's not as simple as plugging a 3.5mm jack into my soundcard.
Can you see a way to do this or would be quicker an easier to buy a known spl meter and borrow a laptop?
Thanks for any responses
