    Is anyone else experience this issue? When I'm running sweeps, all of my measurements are defaulting to 1/48 smoothing even though I have no smoothing selected in the analysis preferences.

    Hi, I noticed that ever since I updated to OSX 10.11.4 I could no longer get a measurement to generate. When I try to run a sweep I cannot get REW to generate a measurement. It just shows a -180db line. RTA doesn't work either. I use to be able to make measurements prior to 10.11.4. I tried...

    Hi, I've been using Rew for a couple of years, so I do know the basics. I have an old laptop running XP that I use to take room and frequency measurements.
