Hi all,
I'm interested in trying out Audiolense in my two channel system. I'm running windows 10 64 using the onboard sound card to feed an AV pre-amp over optical which then feeds my power amp and speakers.
I'm using the AV amp in two channel mode and I have windows set to to stereo. I use JRiver as my playback device and will load the filters in that.
I have a few basic questions and issues:
- can I confirm that an Umik-1 will be ok for the measurements? I've read something that says you need something other than a USB mic but that was an old article I think.
- I tried the sample/demo mode. If I try 6.17 it crashes immediately after I select 2.0 with task manager saying "suspended". I've added it as an exception in defender, I've turned defender off and I run it as admin, still no joy. 6.0 does load for me though. I'm happy to buy the latest version but I'd like to know it's going to work. In the event viewer I get an unhandled exception error which I can share if it would be useful.
- When I got the 6.0 version to work I generated the test filters and loaded them in to JRiver. The parent CFG file (that holds the path to the others) didn't work, so I loaded the 44.1kHz file directly. It seemed to work although it sounded dreadful, I'm guessing because it wasn't configured for my measured response. I did get the -10dB though, so I believe it was being injected into the playback chain. What was odd was that it seemed to "stick" on. It didn't turn off when I deselected it and even after closing JRiver, and rebooting I was still getting the same distortion. Eventually it went away. I'm guessing that's not normal?
Any pointers here?
Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
