I have an issue equalizing with the dbx. I bought a better microphone (beyerdinamics), but the TARGET curve is not flat, its steeper in the left side so the eq enhances the low bass region according to this line. Is there a way to set the target? So I can make it as flat as posible?
DBX makes a mic for that unit. If you want to go down the rabbit hole with REW buy the recommended mic, of which there is a new version.

When you say it's steeper on the left side, is it a flat line that's just tilted down, or is there a curve that increases bass compared to other frequencies? A down-titled straight line is actually what you'd want from a measured speaker curve near the listening position, usually around 10dB down from 20Hz to 20kHz.
