How to test EQ settings in REW?

[Midnight Audiophile]

Hello, after EQing, is there a way to run a sweep to test the settings in REW? I'm on a Mac and use SoundSource so I've just been putting my EQ settings in there then running REW to test them.

you need a loopback....via software or hardware. google it

You can generate the predicted response in the EQ window of REW.

That's what I'm doing with SoundSource. I just wasn't sure if I missed somewhere that it could be done within REW.

You can probably export your EQ as .CSV and apply it to your DAC as soundcard cal file inside REW, though I have not tried that method yet.

• Save the sweeps form REW sound generator with "Add timing ref"
• Load the saved sweeps in: Measure - Playback - From file
• Start and play the same saved sweeps from an audio player.
