Room acoustics measurement software [message #94705]

Hi everybody,

I'm redoing the acoustics of my room at home and I'm using suggestions for
bass traps and absorbers from Ethan Winer http://www.ethanwiner.com/acoustics.html

What I would need now is a software (Mac) to measure the nasty ringing frequencies
at a given spot so I can install absorbers and diffusers accurately.
I found this on the net http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/25161& vid=470175&mode=info
Anyone familiar with this, or maybe other suggestions?
Any help in this domain is highly appreciated.

Best regards,
Ab

You can pretty well cut the cost by 2/3rds if you are able to do the DIY
thing

www.recording.org has a acoustics thread...check it out

also John L. Sayers forum at http://www.johnlsayers.com/phpBB2/index.php

Lot's of good ideas as well as experienced people to answer your questions

As for software I used ETF 1.5 as well as a couple of others but
unfortunately I lost them when my Laptop died

I was thinking of using a B&K 4006 (omni) through Metric Halo ULN2 interface.
I'd only need the software.

I agree, I use MH interfaces all the time but hoped to get along with a less

pricier software for my needs. Thanks anyway.

Don, thanks for the info.
In fact, this project is a DIY one and since it's the first time I do a thing
like that
it's a hell of an adventure. I'm sure the room will sound better than before.

Ab
