Excessive Variation in Measurement While Calibrating Soundcard

[altr]

This is my set up:

Dayton EMM-6
Focusrite Scarlett Solo Second Generation
ADAM AX3 Monitors

I have problems calibrating my soundcard, but maybe I don't really have to do it!?

Thanks!

Your soundcard calibration should look like a straight line ( when done correctly ).

Try turning off ( dis-engaging ) "Direct Monitoring".

The actual value of ( having new users ) running a soundcard calibration is often in the triggering & then catching " user errors / mis-understandings ".

That looks like a room measurement. The soundcard calibration is done without a microphone, connecting the soundcard input directly to its output. If you are certain that nothing the mic captures is getting back to the output (tapping the mic or speaking into it doesn't produce anything from the speakers) you can go ahead without calibration.
