What is the difference between an "interactive" EQ and a "Room" EQ. Based on all my posts, and need for flavoring, which one is better for me.
Parametric EQ's offer major advantages over simple graphic EQ sliders or dials....
The 'best' way to measure for setting EQ is using gated time/energy testing (MLS maximum length sequence). Computer programs like ETF 4.0 do this. An easier method is using swept sine testing. TrueRTA offers a 'chirp' function and is easy to use. Pink noise or fixed sine wave testing is the least reliable.
The important thing to remember about any form of EQ is that measurements needed to taken in multiple places in the room. If one only uses measurements from the so called 'sweet-spot' one quickly learns that there can be significant changes when the mic is moved 18" in one direction or another.
Although primarily focused on subwoofers, you might find the info I have posted below helpful. Note that all the pages are still underconstruction
