Hi,
It's my first post here. Recently I bought new monitors for my studio - PMC TB2.
I use them in my post production studio, mainly mix and master. Studio is well trapped (not professionally, though, all by myself). It has a rather 'rare' shape, being a rectangle with cut in one corner.
Until a week ago I setup my speakers using my ears mostly, basic knowledge and explored best options (knowing my room limitations). Actually I was quite happy with achievements.
Since PMC's situation has change I decided to check acoustics of room properly. So I bought SPL from radioshack and downloaded REW. I managed to calibrate my audiointerface, SPL meter and make first measurements.
I don't have a clue how to interpret those data. I played a bit with speaker setup, moving them in all directions, noticed that graph with data has changed.
Anyway I feel like a blind man, not understanding what I am actually doing.
My goal is to get room EQ as best as possible. i understand it's not only speaker setup, but mostly room and room treatment.
So my question is, what is really wrong with graph below ?
What I should be focused on to achieve best results ?
I spent over 3 days setting up PMC's (very very touchy about placement) and I thought I 've found sweet spot. Then after measures with SPL, I am confused ....
I got dozens of questions, starting from - should I seat in my chair (mixing/listening position) and then start measure, or should I leave the room ? etc, etc.
I hope you guys will help me !
thanx in advance
PS sorry for a photo format... I just made photo off my oder PC (in studio) ...faster option.
