    Setting Up for the first time

    Thank you. Attached may help others. It is a simplified version of the setup. Doesn't cover all and everything. It got a link from miniDSP in their newsletter and made my own from it, which is attached. The main benefit from it was setting the levels. The rest need the REW user guide and...

    THANK YOU. I sorted the level too. I had a newsletter from miniDSP and it also had a link to an idiots guide to setting up their mic and REW. Set Quad to #3 on volume which was a comfortable loud. Set Generator to -20db and slowly moved it to -23db to get SPL Meter to read 75db Put the -23db...

    No. My preamp is a Quad 33 which then goes into a miniDSP 2x8 kit and then into the power amps. The laptop connects via a USB on the front of the miniDSP and via a 3.5 stereo jack in the Laptop headphone socket into a pair of RCAs on the Quad 33. The mic goes into the laptop via USB. Is this...

    Setting Up for the first time

    Hello all, Bit new to all this. I had a go at setting up\my miniDSP 4x8 using REW and my wife's laptop and the miniDSP calibrated mic. Then all seemed to go horribly wrong so I am starting fresh. I have bought a new laptop and installed both the miniDSP software and also latest REW. So stage...
