A Feature Idea:

Would it be possible to introduce the option of specifying two Mic Calibration Files, one each for the left and right ear HRTF compensation curves for a dummy head while measuring headphones? Then the switch from "Output 1" to "Output 2" as we do currently could automatically involve the correct HRTF curve for that measurement. Or it could even be a Toggle or Select button on the Make A Measurement panel.

Thoughts? Maybe tuck the idea away down the "wants" list somewhere?

Thanks again for all of your work, John, we would be in the dark ages without REW and your generosity!

The cal file typically needs to change according to the input selection rather than the output, but it's on the list as part of better supporting the miniDSP EARS measurement rig.

Only reason for asking that the cal file change with the output channel selection is that I am used to having the output channel switch smoothly, while the input selection has not (historically, have not tried it for awhile and it might switch more smoothly now). It also would work a little better with my setup (for the same reason), but if you tie it to the input selection, I will change my setup to match. Thanks!
