Rew eq Filters - Slopes?

[mrfye17]

Hi People,

I have a Home Studio Setup with treatment etc and am focusing/listening on different Speaker Positions to find the best one.

I have taken a bunch of measurements and wanted to use the EQ correction within REW (will use Sonarworks on final spkr placement).

I'll be generating the eq correction in REW using the "Generic" setting and inputting the filters in FabFilters ProQ3.

Can someone please tell me what Bandwidth the Generic filters in REW are (db per Octave)?

I couldn't find any info but is probably staring me in the face.

Thank you,
mrfye17

dB per octave is a slope rather than bandwidth definition, but it might be used as a proxy for filter order. The REW filters are biquads, so 2nd order, which might be labelled 12 dB/octave. There was a previous thread on converting Generic Q into a FabFilter equivalent here, see the last 2 posts.
