I am currently using an Acourate convolver and DSP filters with a laptop. The signal processing delay is abour 2.7 seconds I am currently using acoustic timing with 2.7ms delay (3ft.) for swept frequency measurements.
I have looked at loopback but I don't understand how they would work with a convolver. Any assistance to make better measurements would be appreciated.

Hello @Sliderule, let me see if I understand you correctly... Your current kit consists of a laptop, the Acourate convolver some DSP filters and some unknown pre/amp and SoundLab speakers...

It would be helpful if you could say what laptop, player app, DAC? and measurement microphone you are using...

Off hand, if you are trying to measure your entire kit including your current convolution solution I would suggest you create sweep tone files that include a timing reference using the Generator function of REW... Then you can play the sweep files through your player and entire signal chain... Separately REW can listen for the Timing Reference and record an accurate measurement...
