:TThank you!

It looks like this right now but is other threads and in some tutorials I see it look like what I "expect" it to look like, as an example How is this done?

I set up a short sweep and positioned the capsule of the mic right in front of the tweeter (trickier than I expected!). Both tweets measure out essentially flat to 20KHz. All good. Thanks to all who helped.

I've done text files from EQ, but I can't figure out if there's a way to generate a convo WAV file.

:laugh::laugh::laugh: Good luck!

I think I understand your rhetoricalness. :) So maybe the question is - how much over the ambient SPL is enough for the sweep SPL to be effective?

If I use a calibrated SPL meter and run it right up to the midrange, say, just to get an easier way to read SPLs, what should it measure right up at the speaker to do this?

Is 4M new? I thought 1M was the longest sample rate; that's what I'd been using. Here's what's got me scratching my head. After reading about this I decided to see if my tweeters could reproduce out to 20KHz. My speakers are well designed, with a FR spec'd out to -2dB at 20KHz. I set up my...

Yep, I do. And I never go above 75dB SPL. What if I was using the longest sweep length available?

I've never gone above the -12dB level shown on the Measure panel. Hmm, I might have it -9dB once. How high is too high? In the past I'd always use the longest sweep. Is -12dB at the longest sweep potentially dangerous?

I've heard from some folks that running sweeps, like the one in REW, can damage some tweeters - specifically the more fragile metal types like beryllium. Is there any way that the sweep in REW - even at its longest length - could do such a thing?

Ah, so I guess it was reading the cal file from my 5.19. I wasn't expecting that as I installed the beta in a new directory.

But with the beta, how? In versions up through 5.19, if I launched it and hadn't set an SPL calibration, on first Measurement it would tell me so and prompt me to do a calibration. That doesn't seem to be there anymore with the beta.

@John Mulcahy, the Measure With These Filters function works great! :jump: But I'm confused with respect to what used to be the calibration with Pink Noise. When I went to Measure there was only a Check Levels, and as I had not yet done a measurement with this beta release I expected it to go...

Hey, that's great! Thanks John.
