Correcting w/ Alesis M-EQ 230


Ok, my first post.... here it goes.

I've been using an Alesis M-EQ 230 for correction since I was 18 (I'm 27 now). It's been an excellent piece of hardware. It's a 2-channel (32 bands per channel) +/-12dB equalizer that I bought from Musician's Friend way back when. The system I'm correcting is a simple 2.1 system that I've had for just as long, although the mains have since been upgraded. I'm more into music than I am into movies, thus the simple system.

I've read through the Help file and am curious if there is anything additional I need to know, or that would be helpful, in using REW to correct my system.

Additionally, I have been using a Radio Shack 33-4050, for a meter and mic, since 2004. Also a great tool.

Re: Correcting w/ Alesis M-EQ 230


Your multi-band equalizer is fine for broad correction of your mains, but you really require parametric control over filters to shape them as cancellers of modal resonances (< 200Hz).

For that you would require a parametric equalizer.
