Hi, I am starting REW set up and during the soundcard calibration I see noticable noise above 5kHz which looks a little unusual. Before goung any further to the measurements stages I wondered if I had settings correct? Screen shot of the sound card calibration trace and preferences screen are attached. Really would appreciate any advice, Best Regards

Looks like a little bit of noise pickup, but the calibration graph is on a very zoomed in scale so nothing to be particularly concerned about. The card is flat enough that you don't need to use a calibration file, which avoids baking that bit of noise into all subsequent measurements.

I'm having trouble getting having REW 'find' my sound card. I have MacBook Pro with Mojave.

Make sure the sample rate selected in Audio Midi setup is the same as the sample rate in REW.
