Speakers can be measured anechoically, almost, up on a pole outdoors. Headphones provide easy access to anechoic listening. REW can certainly measure the FR and Distortion etc. of an Amplifier or other electronic device. Sorry I am not familiar with Karlson.

Unless the Mic is precisely equidistant to both tweeters, HF cannot sum accurately. Measure L, R, and L+R

I don't know what that Silver Bullet thing is. On a quick look, I see a Mic Preamp Gain of up to 85dB mentioned. How many dBs of Gain are you applying to the Mic?

Ahh, a very sophesticated device, even a system. Does it have Mic Preamps? Which Dayton Audio Mic? If it NOT the USB one you will need the Mic Preamps.

My recommendations vary between Centre of the Head and the Two Ear positions. As well as Measuring for it's own sake, I reckon it best to try to find the optimum (least bad) mic position. It is very important to use the Mic on a Boom stand, NOT the table stand which daftly comes with various...

Hi Dave. Which Apogee are you using? Which Microphone?

Can you measure it using REW? Play with the smoothing........how narrow is it? Is it on individual speaker measurements? Is you ceiling plasterboard or frame with perforated plaster tiles?

IMO Loopback is not necessary. Way down the line if you need it for particular precision work, you will know. The popular USB Mics cannot provide Loopback. The PMIK-1 did and I believe the little MicW has a splitter which will make it happen...

I don't usually do this myself, I just send a Sweep Wav to Remote Clients. But I intend to shortly, after I do a new Dirac Live Setup using an NTI 2230 Lab quality mic! The sweep file is generated by REW, or FuzzMeasure. Import the WAV or AIFF into any DAW and play normally. Record. Present...

ProTools has never played nice with other interfaces or the OS. John's solution of Playing Back a Sweep and Recording the Speakers and Room should work nicely. I do this with Remote Clients.

Que? No comprendo! I am using it in a Professional Studio scenario. The improvement is very specifically targeted and the success is audible.

ProTools was originally a Mac Program...... Your task looks overwhelming to me. I have never bothered to try to measure my rig with Dirac Live included. Although I am curious.... now that you mention it....

Tx. Every day I wake up and look at myself in the mirror, shaving, and say. " Am I an Artist?" I am convinced that Immersion can be created in the Playback Rig.

Atmos has always been available. Can be easily grown in a hot climate.....

I love Dirac, use it every day in the Studio. But for Measuring REW. Here is what happens when the Measuring Mic is not precisely central. Comb filtering destroys the HF.
