There's been some recent discussion on TacT and other room correction preamps. These systems are relatively (to the SB at least) expensive, and add another (possibly unnecessary) link to the audio chain. Furthermore, they operate off of isynchronous digital data which makes implementation more difficult and induces jitter.
It seems that we SB users have a far more attractive option available - to run a room correction system on the computer, *asynchronously*, and then stream the corrected file to the SB. In other words, calibrate by measuring the room response with a test signal and microphone, and use that and the desired frequency response curve to generate a filter. Then have a SB plugin which convolves the source file with the filter (in faster than real time) and streams it to the SB. I think this is something which could prove very popular with the audiophile segment of SB users, could be extraordinarily rewarding in terms of audio quality. And it really doesn't seem all that difficult to implement. Apparently this is already being worked on here: http://www.duffroomcorrection.com/wiki/User:Hpyle Can hpyle or anyone else comment on the progress of it? is it already available for download somewhere? -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=24519 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
