Hi,

Just a quick question really. Is there a way to disable both the bass drivers and mid-range driver on my Genelec 8341AWM's within the GLM software?
This is just for the purpose of carrying out subwoofer measurements where I require an acoustic reference so just need the tweeter to function.

My interface is an RME ADI2 PRO fs be.
My SAM speakers are fed via AES/EBU 1/2 and my subs are fed from Phones 3/4 via TRS/XLR splitter.
I am using "linked volume" under normal circumstances but obviously need one of my monitors to be active for the reference but it always does a full sweep inclusive of the subs.

You can send the sweep and timing reference to different output channels in REW.
Set the sweep to play on the L channel via your subs and the timing reference on the R channel via your Genelec.

Ahhhhh. So I would need the GLM kit to also be connected to the laptop at the same time!
God why didn't I think of that!! :facepalm:

Bit of a waste of a post really! :D

I have another question though..............

In the GLM kit, as I am using AES which outputs at full signal strength, should I use the "group sensitivity" or the actual volume dial to control the signal strength?
I don't really understand the difference between the two options if I'm honest. Why have two sets of volume adjustment??
