Help Calibrating my soundcard.

This is what I get when I measure the soundcard with the loopback.

We're gonna need more information than that.... we can't read your mind.

Using a creative soundblaster and connected the loopback to line in and out.

I was able to get a graph after making the soundcard measurement. Just wondering why I do not get any Input or Input Volume.

Sample rate: 48000Hz
-3dB points: 4.4Hz, 21.833kHz
Input device: SB Live! 24-bit External
Input: No input selected
Channel: Right
Input volume: no control
Input RMS target: -12.0dB
Actual RMS at 1kHz: -21.5dB
Output device: SB Live! 24-bit External
Output: No output selected
Sweep level: -12.0dB
20Hz .. 20kHz flatness: +0.0, -1.2dB

The soundcard calibrate file is good.

The lack of Input volume control in REW is likely because you're using Vista. You must control the levels with the Vista devices controls.

I have XP media center. So I can go on to the next step?

I've never used Media Center before, so I have no experience.

Test it out and see if it works. You were able to produce a soundcard cal file, so I don't see why it wouldn't work.

What do you guys think about this graph? Used the Antimode 8033! The second graph has 1/3 smoothing.

Looks good...........

I was able to play with the crossover and phase. Now I get this what do you think?

Is the dip at the 45hz and 80hz considered a huge problem?

**brucek** · **09-17-09, 01:08 PM**

No, sharp dips are usually not a problem.....
