Topic: NOOB to Room EQ - measured using REW - what next?

Been looking around and haven't seen a basic description of how to use the results of REW in TotalMix.

I did an L, R, and L+R analysis - I think I did it correctly.  But no idea what to do next. 

There are a lot of tutorials for REW.   But nothing for using the results in RME.

Also, I did not do the loopback test in REW.  I'm assuming the RME's response is probably pretty flat -- am I wrong and this is an important step? 

Thx

Re: NOOB to Room EQ - measured using REW - what next?

You need to process the result with a 9-band PEQ for export. This is not found as fixed preset, use the Configurable EQ to set up one.

The result is a text file that allows you to manually enter the values into the Room EQ panel.

Re: NOOB to Room EQ - measured using REW - what next?

Yikes. 

I see Generic & Configurable PEQ options on the EQ screen.  Do I just change the # of filters to 9?  (pretty much just guessing at this point!). Do I need to recalculate the band widths?

Also I assume my target should be Full Range Speaker as I don't have a sub?  And no idea if I need to set anything else like room dimensions.

Re: NOOB to Room EQ - measured using REW - what next?

Thx - I duplicated the steps in the video.  But the end result is a wav file.   

How do I get values I can import into TotalMix that are divided into 9 bands?

Re: NOOB to Room EQ - measured using REW - what next?

Just bumping this - I followed the steps and created the correction EQ file from REW, but it's just a wav.

Is there a way to get text values from REW or the Wav file that I can import or manually add to TotalMix' Room EQ?

Thx!
