Basic Measurement settings

.ady file

• upload your .ady file here
• browse to the Audyssey calibration file (.ady) generated by the MultEQ Editor (IOS/Android) app
• when prompted, download and 'save' the .zip (measurements) on your computer. Make sure the zip file is unblocked: right-click > properties > unblock
• start REW, go to the 'EQ' / 'House Curve', and select a target curve of your choice
• open the zip file and select ALL (keyboard shortcut: "CTRL+A" for Windows / "Command+A" for Mac) the files in that folder
• left click on the selection (inside the .zip file) and drag & drop them onto REW. Wait until all measurements are imported and '[SPL Adjustments →]' button is enabled
• You can also use custom measurements with ClariQ Next!
• naming still needs to follow $0/1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15 etc for normal speakers
• naming still needs to follow SW10/11/12/13/14/15/16/17/18/19/110/111/112/113/114/115 etc for subwoofers
• naming still needs to follow SW20/21/22/23/24/25/26/27/28/29/210/211/212/213/214/215 etc for subwoofers
• the order in REW doesn't matter only the naming (custom sorting by ClariQ Next)
• Frequency Range Selector
• once your .ady is uploaded and the measurements are loaded into REW the Frequency Range Selector will be availble
• Select a "preferred range" from the frequency index values supported by your AVR
• * The final minumum range used will depend on your suboofer(s) capabilities

• Select cinema type to see target level
  • Offset according to the chosen cinema mode
• Makes it easier to read in REW
• Takes into account specific 120dB spl offsets that are no longer supported!
• Takes into account script 78dB spl offsets
• Takes into account custom measurements

• Here we go.. Be patient!
• Applying Audyssey microphone calibration file to measurements if needed
• Resets, IR windows, EQ target shape, room curve settings and equalizer to 'Generic/Generic' for all measurements..
• Checking measurement names, indices and sorting
• Custom sorting if custom measurements are not sorted correctly
• ClariQ Next sorting, the standard REW A-Z sorting doesn't suffice!
• Sets default target level according to the chosen cinema mode
• Logs current set optimization parameters

• Sets initial trims using mlp measurements
• Time align speakers according to mlp measurements
• based on #measurement count per speaker (microphone positions)
• Spatial averaging of speakers and subwoofers
• normalizes trim levels (ClariQ Next !)
• based on cinema mode chosen
• makes sure trim levels are correct for modes that have a SPL of 75+dB
• Dolby mode (82dB)
• Cedia RP22 mode (85dB)
• THX mode (85dB)
• IMAX mode (100dB)
• Initial Subwoofer bass fil for dip compensation

• Calculates speaker(s) -3dB points
• Calculates High Frequency rolloffs
• Depending on the cinema mode chosen
• Dolby mode - 16000Hz rolloff
• Cedia RP22 mode - 15000Hz rolloff
• THX mode - 20000Hz rolloff
• IMAX mode - 20000Hz rolloff
• default - calculates rolloff

• Calculates subwoofer(s) -3dB points
• Calculates low frequency rolloffs
• Depending on the cinema mode chosen
• Dolby mode - 16000Hz rolloff
• Cedia RP22 mode - 15000Hz rolloff
• THX mode - 20000Hz rolloff
• IMAX mode - 20000Hz rolloff
• default - calculates rolloff
• calculates availble bandwidth
• sets "estimated" XO range based on available bandwidth
• can be adjusted by using the slider range

• Optimize subwoofer(s) delay(s)
• Skipping! - NART handles all sub alignment in step 10

• Finalize crossovers based on usable XO range
• based on (combined subwoofer lowest safe bandwidth + slider range)

• ClariQ Next PROPRIETARY NART!
• Analyzes Room modes (Standing Waves)
• Calculates what speakers can contribute to modal cancellation
• Frequency-dependent alignment strategies
• Band-by-band optimization (20-60Hz, 60-100Hz, 100-150Hz) with different strategies per band
• Multi-band phase optimization
• Support Speaker Architecture
• Between speaker groups
• Depends on calculated bandwidth of speakers
• Advanced speaker support Matrix
• UI/UX implementation pending
• Advanced subwoofer and Multi Subwoofer alignment

• ClariQ Next PROPRIETARY FILTER GENERATION AND CHECKING !

• ClariQ Next SBIR detection
• good indication of expected SBIR
• logs and gives an overview of expected nulls

• ClariQ Next SBIR filter optimizations
• Checks REW generated filters
• we don't want to boost above +3dB as we can't fix nulls with EQ!
• we don't want to cut more than -10dB as we can't fix nulls with EQ!
• logs and gives an overview of active REW generated filters
• logs and gives an overview of any BOOST VIOLATION FOUND
• logs and gives an overview of any CUT VIOLATION FOUND
• automatically corrects the filters to stay within +3dB and -10dB

• Final speaker & subwoofer trims:
• checks if they are within range
• Sets final trims (that will be send to the *.ady)

• Finalize calculated distances
• speaker & subwoofer distances
• Includes NART modal cancellation

• Logs SBIR (BOUNDARY INTERFERENCE) ANALYSIS
• Generating expected final outputs for each channel.
• Updating REW results to reflect the expected final outputs for each channel.

• Constructing .ady file
• Generating CEDIA RP22 report
