My original post...before I found a plugin.....
Using the "Generic" equalizer when generating EQ filters.
Anyone know of a VST plugin that follows the bandwidth rules/value as shown in the REW Eq Filters pane.
Or a formula/formulas that can be used to convert...
Would like to use a VST plugin on the master bus of my DAW..designing the filter using REW recommendations from the Eq Filters pane..
Ever thought of coding one to use with this fine software? That would allow you to send/load the data into the VST or RTAS or whatever plugin?
Anyway, any help would be great....Trying to match as close as possible...
I have found a plugin that you can use with REQ Wizard.
It is the ApQualizr by Apulsoft. Or any equalizer that follows the "BW as Octave" Q factor rule...
Notes: Smoothing Setting seems to have an effect on amount of Eq filters generated during matching. More smoothing will result is less eq filter points generation.
Example:
1/3 smoothing yeilding 9 filters
1/12 smooting yeilding 17 filters
Equalizer choices of BFD Pro FBQ2496 and Generic offer the most filters possible.
BFD Pro FBQ2496 offers the necessary bandwidth information, that will be inputed into any Eq plugin that follows "bandwidth as octave" Q factor. Generic does not.
The ApQualizr by Apulsoft follows that Q factor rule also.
Also, the Eq filters window stays open while you are in your DAW, assigning Eq filters.
Sorting the filters by ascending frequency makes things easier.
After measuring your room, go into the "EQ" window.
With "Generic" selected as your equalizer..
And under "Filter Tasks" set "Match Range":
20hz to 10kHz(10kHz is the highest possible)
Other filter task settings at default, or to your liking of max boost,flatness, ect...
Click "Match Response to Target"
Which will generate the Eq filters and Optimize PK Gain & Q
Now click the "Eq Filters" button to see the generated filters.
Now, select the BFD Pro FBQ2496 as your equalizer.
This will very slightly alter the filter response. You will see it updated in realtime in the filter response graph.
You will now have the bandwidths as octave figures, to put into your eq.
Now, you could have started out by selecting the BFD Pro FBQ2496 as your equalizer, before matching, but the results would be different..
Choose which flow of operations gives you the desired corrected response.
You could also turn off your right speaker (solo left speaker), conduct a measurement. Generate filters.
Then do the same thing for the other speaker.
Then enter the values of the left and right independently within ApQulizr, by setting it in L or R mode when making adjustments...
As well as any other experiments you can conjure,, because this plugin can do it all...

Talk about a match in filter response!!
