The one thing important to remember though is that a little static EQ is not going to fix all your room problems and allow you to reliably analyze all aspects of your mixes despite what the sonarwoks ad may tell you.

Sonarworks comes with a reference mic which is identical in appearance to the ECM8000, however each sonarworks mic is individually measured, you can download the curves for your personal mic and use them in rew too which is nice.
(It does mostly eq, but I would think there is other stuff going on too). In reaper, it can sit in your monitor chain, which doesn't get bounced. It is a fire and forget solution to apply digital correction to your system, and you can use it with a plugin in the daw. Sonarworks does not really provide you with much info on your room. You can measure how effective your treatment is.

REW is for measuring your room, which is very helpful if you want to find problems with your room acoustics and plan to do acoustic treatment and install bass traps. I use both REW and Sonarworks and they do different things. REW is the tool you would use to take a measurement every time you apply or reposition panels, bass traps or difusors, so you could analyse the effect of the treatment.īy the way, stay away from foam wedges which are labelled as 'bass traps' - they will only attenuate low mids, likely making your bass problems worse. But I might use it to apply correction to headphones though. Personally I wouldn't use SW4 to apply EQ correction to monitors, because everything I've read suggests that doing so would cause as many frequency problems as it would fix * if the room isn't already treated very well before you do the scans\*. Whereas SW4 can be loaded as a VST plugin in Reaper, and therefore apply correction to monitors and headphones connected to your interface?
In other words, you will not have any EQ applied by E-APO when using Reaper and your interface's ASIO drivers, as far as I understand? The application must not bypass the system effect infrastructure(APIs like ASIO or WASAPI exclusive mode can not be used) This is more of a question of the softwares features rather than what I have or where I am as just trying to make an educated desicion for the future. Thanks for your time, also I plan to move to reaper 6 when I can download it so if theres any features there I should look at that will help this endeavour, hints would be appreciated. Am I right in saying that the SwRef4 is a more all in one package rather than REW as you can just turn it on and it will make the adjustments automatically where as REW is not systemwide and I will need to make my own EQ (possible with some complex routing from what I just read on this sub) thus taking more time to complete the process.
little help?)īut with REW it seems that it just references the room and doesn't place any correction? So I would need to add my own handmade EQ to fight these frequencies. and using reaper I know there is a way of adding plugins without them affecting tracks when you bounce them (I forget what is called. With SwRef4 I see that you can have it work system wide so that it is always on. and put them up before I go in to reference softwares) (this will be a month or so away as I need to make acoustic panels first. I have also looked in to Sonarworks Ref' 4 but have one question left unanswered that may be a deciding factor in to which products I go for in the future. I have had a call with my local music shop for advice and he says that he uses REW with a behringer ECM8000. Hey all, I'm just getting in to this room acoustics thing and am moving in to a flat on my own this weekend where I plan to make the main room a studio / living space.
