I played with it a little more and I just need to find more test tones and white/pink noise tracks to see how well it works. I am just unmotivated and lazy right now, I really cant get anything done right now. I will try again later.

That is all

sorry to butt in with a noobass question but was is rta?!?!?

RTA = real-time analyzer.. it analyzes your system and tells you how loud certain frequencies are. then youll know what frequencies need to be turned down to achieve balanced levels of frequencies

that mic will be HORRIBLY inaccurate.

this mic is relativly cheap and is pretty accurate

an RTA uses a mic to input data in a processor that displays a bar graph of a certain ammount of frequencies, and you can use this graph to see where your system needs 'eq work'.

its over the top for 90% of peoples installs.

where can i get a very cheap pre-amp for it? will any pre-amp do or does it have to have a certain feature to be accurate?

you can not get a cheap RTA. you will spend at least $100 or more.

i still dont know how a pre-amp is going to plug into my soundcard if my soundcard only has headphone-sized outputs. i dont even see any pre-amps that use headphone-sized outputs... isnt that what im looking for if i already have a mic and a soundcard??
