It seems like a Windows / Pioneer driver issue. I just tested it in Linux and don't have the problem.

I hear you, but if the OS or other device is inducing noise or is off for whatever reason, it renders the UMIK unreliable and I still need to adjust for it by using the other microphones as reference. An example of noise via USB is the front panel (external usb drive) has more noise than the...

When running speaker measurements on my AVR, I always have to first run a pink noise to ensure that the SPL for each speaker is correct. For Example, if I select the FR speaker and run pink noise, it sounds and truly measures about 10dB too low. But if I select the FL speaker and run pink noise...

btw, the mic for the AVR, the phone and the HyperX Quadcast 2 all show 75dB based on the results of the AVR's room correction. So I use that as cross reference to show some trust in the phone as being good enough.

thanks. I don't expect the phone to be reference but I'm just looking for close enough rather than 5 or 10dB.

thank you!

Sorry if it's been answered but is there a reason why the install package no longer includes java? I haven't had success installing it with java separately. It keeps saying it's not install even after setting the installed version as the default.

Here's a screenshot of Windows. In Windows the SPL meter is higher than the phone. There's no way for me to reduce it to match the phone. I tried the HyperX Quadcast 2 usb mic and that gave me the option to use the 'Calibrate' button to match the phone.

'named default' must be a linux thing since it uses general drivers.

I get the same results with Default and the named default, but I'll use the named input going forward. However after restarting REW, I have to adjust the OS input volume by a different amount than I previous set it. There's something else throwing it off. I'll have to check Windows again.

John, yes I believe I did the steps you mentioned, shown in the pics (in Linux). Doing that did not fix the mismatch between the phone and umik. However, I lowered the OS mic volume to get it to match. Does this resolve my issue? But in Windows, the mic volume is too low even though the OS...

I'm using a UMIK-2 and none of the readings match up. Am I not understanding the REW SPL meter correctly? What does the dB(C) S window represent vs the dBFS in window? With other mics, I could manually calibrate the mic ,dB(C)S, to the reading on the phone, but with the UMIK, it does not allow...
