microphone

If there is a better thread for this type of question, please point me their direction. I'm trying to learn REW to do some room treatment measurements, and have a question about calibration files. I have a Dayton EMM-6 microphone that I purchased through Cross-Spectrum Labs, that came with...

So my cats have decided to chew through my MCACC microphone cable for my Pioneer sc-lx83. The AV receiver is dated 2011 and Im having trouble getting hold of a replacement for it due to the age. The part number is APM7009 and I have literally gone through every link google has given me. The...

I want to setup my audio system in my car using proper measuring tools. The problem in a car is that the distance from the right speaker is different to the speaker from the left. Since I have an audio processor in my car, I can make a time alignment setting, so I can delay the sound coming...

Recently, we bought two low-noise mics (4955 by B&K) plus amplifier (Nexus 2690), to perform measurements down to 0 dB HL. Their noise level is ca 6.5 dB (A). To make further experiments, I would help me know what kind of mics they are. Attached data sheet does not say that much. Are they...

Hi if a mic has a sensitivity of 10mV/Pa can I use this for SPL on the top of the calibration file. If not can I convert this for SPL? Thanks in advance

a question to all users REW when measuring a single speaker (left or right) place the microphone towards the speaker, or you let the central location? (Aimed at the center between the two speakers) thank you

I am planning to EQ my home studio where I mix orchestral music. My personal research has lead me to two uncalibrated microphones that have a relatively, flat response curves; I would say, flat enough to use to find major problems in my room, the dbx RTA-M and the Presonus PRM1. I am very aware...

Hi, I'm new to this forum and room equalization. So a "Hello" to all! ;) My first question is which microphone type to use? The pre-amp is a Behringer Firepower FCA610 USB-Audio interface with two TRS/XLR microphone inputs (+48V phantom power) connected to an Ubuntu 15.04 (Linux) machine. On...

That microphone is supposed to have a flat response and I was hoping that somebody else here used it with REW with good results. Thanks in advance.

Hello, my experimental setup consists of a microphone (Rode Lavalier) and a PC with Labview software. The task is to record sound for the frequencies 125Hz, 250 Hz, ...., 6000Hz, 8000 Hz and various sound levels in dB(HL). Kindly ask to inform me whether I need to calibrate the microphone...

Hi all I would like to know if the XTZ microphone pro needs "normal" 48v phantom power. I would be very happy if someone could measure that on the included usb-interface. Thanks. Andy

I've followed / used the work of Dr. Earl Geddes to tune automotive audio systems professionally to down right spooky / lifelike results. I used specialized commercially available hardware and software to achieve this. But who can afford this if they want to apply similar principles at home...

Is there any way to record short audio files with REW? I am especially interested in this feature, because I don't know which other recording-software would support calibration files for the used microphones. I currently have a UMIK-1 and would like to use this to record short audio clips (up...

I'm looking to do a full system calibration, ie: set EQ curves of each speaker independently, and am gathering information to help me do it correctly. I am using a Tascam US-122 external USB sound card, which has both 1/4" and XLR inputs. It also has phantom power ability. As far as I can...

it's probably a stupid question : suppose i have a calibrate micro M1 and a non calibrate one M2 using M1 i take a measure (loading M1 file in calibration space) =>A1 using M2 i take a measure in the same condition ( unloading M1 file of course) =>A2 is the export measure of (A2-A1) represent...

Hello, Everyone. I am dealing with REW for some days and now I guess I managed to do something right. However I have some questions and probably you more experienced guys can help me: First I have measured my room with my Microphone AKG D88S. Very much probably not the best mic, but this is...

Hi, When making measurements at the center position, left ear, and right ear positions, do I point the mic upward or towards each monitor? Regards,

Am a new user of REW. Just tried using the Yamaha AVR YPAO microphone with REW, it seems to work quite well (more sensitive than the laptop built in microphone). However, I notice the freq response from 1khz - 20khz drops off about 15db from the lower ranges (20hz-1khz). Has anyone tried the...

The XTZ Microphone Pro is another calibrated mic to consider. Read about it in this thread.

Just getting to work with REW and picked up the Dayton UMM-6 microphone with calibration files for various axis positions. Though it would be neat to see if a laser sight would fit onto the microphone itself. For room measurements I should be using the 90° cal file and pointing the microphone...
