I was just thinking (scary...) it might be useful to be able to adjust sub integration in real time. What I mean is to have the mic at the listening position, your computer running REW near the sub, send 10-250hz pink noise through the appropriate channel(s) covering the speakers you are trying to match with the sub and the sub. REW would then have a real time graph, perhaps a bar chart with 24 bars per octave that you could monitor as you fiddled with the phase control on the sub.
Does something like this exist in REW and I am not aware of it?
Is it a reasonable idea?
I could do something similar with a sound analyzer app on a tablet, but the mic in the tablet isn't calibrated and I couldn't easily have the mic in the listening position while fiddling with the phase control. Perhaps I could cast the app to the TV, but still I have no idea how good the mic in the tablet is.
Right now I run a REW analysis pass, adjust the phase and run again, until I get tired of fiddling or it looks good.
One of my issues is I actually have a sub, and then my DIY mains each have an OB woofer cabinet with a "sub amp" driving the woofers so I have 3-8 times the fiddling depending on how pedantic I want to get.
Interested in what others think of my half baked idea.
