| Getting started HELP! Ok so I got the dsp 1124p hooked up. I made the decision to do this thing manually as I see there are some issues with MIDI hook up. I really can't see this whole process taking less than 2 days to complete. Just to get my first filter adusted and tweaked took all about the entire morning along with the initial raw spl measurements. With all the options of bandwidth and gain I can see myself doing this forever and going How do I know if my unit will work with REW? Or do I have this wrong? Cause now I'm at the point if I can't go that route... The Behringer Ultra Curve graphic equalizer is starting to look really nice. Some suggestions would be great. BTW what kind of cable would I need to hook up to the computer? (if this option still works.) Dave | |||

| | Re: Getting started HELP! What brucek said. Doing this manually can take forever; it’s a snap with REW, well worth the price of admission You should already have an SPL meter, so all you need is a soundcard and a few cables. (If you use a soundcard with RCA connections [like the Creative Soundblaster] you can dispense with the RCA-to-1/8” adapters shown in the picture.) Even without the MIDI, the cool thing about REW is that you can manually play with filters in “real time” - boost or cut more or less, move the frequency center up or down, different bandwidths – and see right there on-screen the change the filter will make to your raw response. Once you’ve smoothed out your response, the program shows you exactly what values for each filter you’ll need to enter into the BFD. That kind of tweaking manually – don’t even want to think how much time it would take. Regards, Wayne | |||
