It is an extra cost license. I can do it with REW but that is a lot of hassle right now when I have so much more to test.
Hey bossman, I was just wondering since this distortion stuff confuses me from time to time (especially when trying to wrap my head around heavily mains derived distortions, or IMD distortions, or some other kinds). When you do THD measurements for devices. It's safe to assume that is worst-case that takes all of the distortions into account right? So while we may not see how much IMD distortion is having a piece of that THD pie, we can rest assured when something like THD is under something for example like 0.1% we surly woulnd't be hearing any IMD coming through as the entirety (or lets say 95%) of the distortion artifacts right?
I am also wondering (since only someone with your experience, and mathematical prowess, among a handful of others here perhaps as well with the math know-how), how much in your experience (for DACs or Amps since you don't measure IMD of speakers) does IMD comprise itself of the entire distortion pie? Maybe you haven't taken notice to ask yourself this question up until now. I was just curious about the aproximate average makeup IMD is present if you were to subtract it's distortions from the THD pie (if such a calculation is even possible and not masked after a certain point by other distortions)?
