Exporting from REW to Equalizer APO?

I am a big fan of Equalizer APO/Peace which I use for a long time. Only a few days ago I started with REW as well.

I can play with REW, and for example use the "Audyssey One Evo" script (for Audyssey calibration on my AVR), and among many things that the EVO script does, it enables me loading an Audyssey .ady file into REW (since it extracts the measurements), and later on again exporting a newly optimized .ady file that I can load into the AVR.

Now, my goal would be to export everything from REW to Equalizer APO. Basically, that the final Audyssey calibration is running on PC on E.APO, rather than in the AVR.

What do I need to export? I understand there is not only filter settings, but possibly also IR and other stuff? I am not sure whether simply exporting filters (and then loading them into Equalizer APO) is all I need to do? Anyone an idea?
 
When I created DSP files that included phase correction and were created through REW and rePhase I had to export the filters as convolver .wav files. (One for each sample rate I could potentially use and in my case for each channel as well.) However, while I created the general EQ portion of the file through REW, I created to finalized .wav file with phase correction through rePhase. I'm not sure if it is possible to create them from REW. I use those files with ROON as my DSP program.

I followed the instructions here:


That's my personal experience. Sorry if this doesn't answer your question exactly. I'm sure others can add information and recommendations.

But if we are talking the general EQ, all you need to do from REW is export your filter by clicking "Export filter settings as text" near the bottom of this menu. I highly recommend the PEACE GUI for Equalizer APO as it makes it easy to switch between different EQ settings and different outputs.

I've read that it is possible to load convolver files onto Equalizer APO (though I myself have not tried) but perhaps you need to use rePhase if you want to include phase correction. In the meantime see what happens if you try "File - Export - Export filters impulse response as WAV."
 
If you aren't worried about correcting phase you can just export the filters as .txt and load them directly in EQAPO. I would actually recommend doing the filters as text and then only do phase correction via WAV, since frequency resolution is limited in low frequencies using FIR.
 
You can import your REW EQ into Equalizer APO as PEQ, variable band GEQ (1000+ points if necessary), or as .WAV convolution file.

.ADY won't work.
