REW feedback?

[dallas2727]

I'm fighting a losing war to get REW to take a measurement.

My current battle is 2-fold.

1. During "Check Levels" : My line in Left db is far higher than my REW output dB. Even if I turn REW Sweep level to -40 and the output is nill, the Left input is still up around -8.

2. Gettin the room anywhere in the neighborhood of 70db result in fedback through the RS SPL meter and out the channel I'm testing.


FYI - I'm using a ASUS m2n-E with onboard 7.1 card. Updated soundcard driver. using stereo mini->rca adapters.

I'd kill for your guys suggestions. thanks in advance.

On the physical connections, are you by any chance using the Mic Input instead of Line In?

P.S. Your location (Raleigh) has a typo.

[dallas2727]

nope, definatley using the line in according the MB manual.

I'm about ready to give up.

Not sure if we are talking about the same thing here but go into your sound cards playback volume menu(not sound recording volume) and mute the line-in.This worked for me.

I'm 99% sure I already tried that. It dropped my input volumes to nothing. So obviously that's the desired result either.

I am referring to your OUTPUT volume,there should be a separate slider there for "line-in",thats the one you should completely mute.Kind of confusing,but give it a try.

As correctly stated above.

The line-in is enabled in the Recording Mixer, and muted in the Playback Mixer.
