Yeahh thats exactly what I meant to do, I already started to practice during the lockdown. I meant about the boom in order to make sweeps following the dirac couch pattern and then average them. Better have results of the 2 measurements techniques than 1 don't you think ?
The sweeps I made were fixing the Umik provided little stand fixed to the couch, not very easy to change position other than main listening position this way...
Frankly, for in-room measurements I find sine sweeps good for only 2 things:
- you can do nearfield gated measurements with them to check response north of 1kHz. (be carefull with that as measurements from various close distances may vary due to varios reasons!)
- you can do sweep from LP to mannualy correct phase response
And that's about it. For everthing else, just use MMM RTA with pink noise.
