Looking for Room Measurement / Speaker Setup Software
I’ve gotten to the point where I am happy with the equipment I have (PS Audio Digital / VPI Super Scoutmaster Reference, NAT Preamp, Maker Audio Amp, Hansen Prince speakers), but I know the speakers could be better optimized. The setup is in a crappy room (too open, with a big couch) but it still sounds really good. Not great though.
Can anyone recommend software / hardware that I can by to measure frequency response at my listening position that I can use to adjust speaker placement? If I need separate hardware above & beyond my laptop that’s fine, though obviously something that works with the laptop’s hardware is more economical. I’m guessing we’re talking a good USB mic and some software but I have no idea what to get.
Thanks!

what am I connecting the RCA cables to? I assumed the software will read the levels/freq data the mic ’hears’ and generate a graph of room response.Connect to your preamp one of the line level input, if you decided to use umik-1 with REW for acoustic measurement, please read the link below to get started: https://www.minidsp.com/applications/acoustic-measurements/umik-1-setup-with-rew BTW, the REW software is free and come with built-in RTA, IME, it is a great learning tool to have. |
