V5.19 beta 10 Windows installer (requires 32-bit Java 7 or Java 8)

Changes in V5.19 beta 10:

• 24-bit data is now supported where the JVM makes it available (currently macOS and probably Linux)
• Added 176.4, 352.8 and 384 kHz to the sample rates allowed for ASIO
• Allow generator to continue running if ASIO output selection is changed - audio will be interrupted briefly, however
• Added a dBc axis option for the RTA (dB relative to carrier, mainly used to present data relative to the level of the fundamental tone in the signal)
• Only stop the...

V5.19 beta 11 Windows installer (requires 32-bit Java 7 or Java 8)

V5.19 beta 11 changes:

• Added Leq traces for the last minute and the last 10 minutes to the SPL logger
• Added * in front of comment lines in the impulse response text export file and a * Data start comment immediately before the data
• Trim trailing zeroes when exporting impulse response as text with window applied, but note that the data will be padded with zeroes so the length is a binary power if required
• Show an error message if the file selected for data import does not...

V5.19 beta 12 Windows installer (requires 32-bit Java 7 or Java 8)

Small changes in 5.19 beta 12, all being well the last before the 5.19 release.

• Improved rendering of text on spectrogram graph images when spectrogram floor is filled
• Small refinement to the IR start detection code
• Changed delay figure with acoustic timing reference back to using IR start time for limited bandwidth measurements (e.g. subwoofers), retained use of the Estimate IR Delay process otherwise
• Bug fix: Added checks to try and prevent occasional exception when...

Something in the Beta 12 version killed the phase curve information when using any kind of smoothing. I'm running Windows 7. I reverted to Beta 11 and the problem went away.

 

[John Mulcahy]

Thanks Chris. That bug made it into the 5.19 release as well, I've fixed it and re-uploaded the 5.19 release files to www.roomeqwizard.com

First beta of V5.20

• Increased audio data timeouts for macOS to accommodate 10.14 Mojave delays in granting audio access
• Changed text for checkbox to lock sine gen frequency to RTA FFT length and included the FFT length in the text
• Added Preferences menu entries to set the REW main window to a selection of predefined sizes
• Bug fix: If not setting t=0 at IR peak the win ref time was not being reset after estimate IR delay, causing incorrect phase for FDW
• Bug fix: SPL...

REW V5.20 beta 2 Windows installer (requires Java 8)

V5.20 beta 2 changes:

• Gave the signal generator a revamp and added a signal waveform preview
• Added fade in and fade out controls to the linear and log sweep signals
• Added AES17-2015 MD and DFD presets to the dual tone signals

• Added a selection of multitone test signals
• Allow RTA lengths up to 1M
• If the...

I have trouble with this edition.
When im measuring with RTA, the db level is not match.
Example, Top right hand shows 75db but the actual measurement is around 55db only.
Any idea, why it become like this? Please refer attached picture for better understanding.

​

 

[John Mulcahy]

The figure in the top right is the rms level of the total signal, the same level you would see on a Z-weighted SPL meter. It will always be higher than the levels at the various frequencies, it is the rms sum of those individual levels.

That is Norton speak for "not a lot of people have downloaded this yet". For a bit more on that see this post and the few that follow it.

The Windows 32-bit installer without JRE is no longer required, the Windows 32-bit installer only prompts to download a Java runtime if one is not already installed.
