Just that. Moreover, I've been playing more with MSO, experimenting with different combinations of filters, all-pass on one sub or the other vs no all-pass, etc. Using different EQing schemes in MSO gives different delays. And they don't deliver the same delays as REW using the alignment...

My adventures in DSP continue my understanding declines.o_O For some reason I decided to compare all my historical REW curves for the MSP. I kept 6 curves each for left and right speakers. What I discovered was strange. I found that the respective L and R curves both fell into 2 distinct...

I'm running an enterprise grade media server on win10. Server is a wildly overspec'd HP DL380 G7. So, with Win10 going away I'm considering just ignoring it and carrying on. This unit is connected to the Internet but really doesn't do anything except be a network media server and Plex server...

There's lot out there about imaging/soundstage and speaker positioning, room design, acoustic treatments, recording techniques, etc. But I've found next to nothing on measurements that might be used to improve matters. Is the reason that whatever contributes is outside the realm of...

Sonically I'm getting good results, though I'm still not satisfied that I actually understand the process. And rabbit holes being what they are, I can't resist fiddling until I'm confident that I understand what I'm doing. I'm hoping that you kind folks will indulge me again as I run through...

MSO continues to amaze me. My current challenge, apart from a zillion[^zillion.exp] configurations and just figuring out how to use it at all, entails how deep to go. AND, simply recognize what problems I'm trying to solve. Specifically, it only now dawned on me that the Multi-stage...

So, I finally managed to work through Dave Boswell's excellent MSO 2.0 tutorial twice - first time to just listen and second time to follow along and apply his process to my system. My system is 2 ported subs in opposite corners of the room and I'm really just concerned with MLP. My previous...

Per the title. I'm trying to do the speaker delay process described by Deer Creek Audio's method HERE. On the face of it it seems easy enough, but either I'm doing something wrong or I can't make sense of it. Hopefully The Learned Ones here can set me straight. Room setup is at the...

If you're just coming to DSP as anything less than an audio engineer, mathematician or physicist, the learning curve seems pretty steep. To be clear, I'm not talking about plug-and-play solutions, like Audessy. I refer to REW, MSO, phase alignment, multiple sub setup, yada yada. Beyond...

Is there such a thing at a reasonable price? By this I mean that you put in a CD and a folder of flac files is outputted to a USB stick or HD with all the tagging, etc. It seems like many either don't do the tagging or require further intervention of some sort. I'm tired of the whole EAC...

With practice I've gotten better/faster with these techniques, enough so to obsessively repeat again and again and again and...... Well, faster at least. Anyway, I'm really only interested in EQing for MLP in a 2.2 audio setup. I'm gradually coming to find that my best results are with REW...

My sub cable length is pretty long, about 30 ft, and there's a slight hum. The DAC feeding it has balanced and RCA outs, but Sub only has RCA input so that's what I'm using. Presumably a balanced interconnect would improve matters. Any thought on the best way to convert?? Transformer? One...

The more I learn the less I know. As result I'm back to more fiddling with room EQ and sub integration, cause I'm sure I can do it better. My toolbox consists of MiniDSP Studio, REW, Dirac and MSO. It's a 2ch system with 2 subs and large Magneplanars. I'm less concerned about multiple...

In this thread @LDG_ recommends the EQ method described by Meridian Soundworks as described HERE. The write-up is very detailed and informative and involves various manipulations of REW measurements to create EQ filters for DSP. In a nutshell the process is: Take room measurements - single L...

In years gone by, long before DSP, I fiddled with LEDR and soon forgot about it. Now I've rediscovered it HERE so I gave it a shot. To my delight my system seemed to do the stuff described. But no measurements, no clear way to evaluate the results, no path to improvement unless my system is...

Say I change GD, modify XO or modify PEQ after running Dirac. I don't really understand what/how Dirac works, but presumably it's based on the original parameters. Hence changing them would invalidate the original Dirac run. Can anybody confirm this or comment? Thanks in advance and Happy...

I'm getting my feet wet with MSO and Minidsp Studio for a 2.2 audio system. I'm pretty amazed at what MSO can do. MSO generated delay times for the respective subs that i plugged into the MiniDSP. Using them resulted in an astonishing improvement in low end FR. One sub is in front corner...

Per the title. I'm integrating 2 subs into a 2 channel\ system. The notes I've found say to set XO on the subs rather high, say 100Hz, and not worry, MSO will take care of it all. Subs are a pair of Heco Aurora 30A's, nothing exotic (but amazingly cheap!). So, what about level and phase? I...

I'm exporting REW EQ file to MiniDSP. REW seems to do this OK, though only in .txt format. The REW EQ setting point to MiniDSP and 2X4HD per MiniDSP manual. Yet the MiniDSP console only seems to accept .xml files. I'm apparently not the only one that hqs had this problem. All my software is...

As I keep falling down the DSP rabbit hole I learn more and more how little I know about all this. I've spent many hours trying to optimize positioning, followed by many more trying to tweak Dirac. I'm running the MiniDSP SHD Studio. Somehow, only now, did I figure out how to get REW sweeps...
