I forgot to post this earlier, so here I go. Back when I got my MiniDSP UMIK-1 to calibrate my audio systems I had a little problem. I didn't want to fuss around with REW or pay big bucks for DIRAC to apply a calibration EQ preset, so I used the free and open source EasyEffects package for Linux instead. Not so bad, right? Wrong.
The calibration data MiniDSP provides with their mics is basically a bespoke format that only REW and DIRAC bother to support. I needed some way to apply this data to EasyEffects but there was no obvious way. However, EasyEffects DOES support the commonly used APO format, though! That's why I wrote a special tool that converts the bespoke MiniDSP format to APO so that you can use it in software like EasyEffects with zero fuss at zero cost. EasyEffects only supports up to 32 bands so I also added a way to compress everything down to a lower band count.
The website version: https://slackadays.github.io/mini2EQ/
The Python/source code version: https://github.com/Slackadays/mini2EQ
I hope this helps someone else out there!
