digital room correction

[Veggen]

Agreed, the EQ is a very broad-brush approach. This is mostly because my perl skillz aren't yet equal to the task of making a good user interface to proper parameteric-type EQ. You may find easiest to edit the settings file by hand:
- Use the remote control to get EQ settings approximating what you want
- Save as a preset "xxxx"
- Look for the preset file xxxx.preset.conf (in \Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\InguzEQ\Settings)
- Edit this file with a text editor. You can change the frequency/gain settings or add as many as you want; just be sure they're in ascending order, and that you keep the XML tags in matched pairs.
- From the remote control: load this preset again.

To approximate a notch filter (although the shape of the frequency response will be a cosine, not a real notch), just have two 0dB frequency points either side of the notch, and set your notch value to (say) -9dB or -12dB.

Sounds good, but I am not able to get it to work.
I have tried making a customised 9 band preset for flattening out the low frequency response of my speakers. The EQ part of my .preset.conf file looks like this:

<EQ Bands="9">
<Band Freq="1">-12</Band>
<Band Freq="10">-12</Band>
<Band Freq="20">-12</Band>
<Band Freq="30">0</Band>
<Band Freq="40">8</Band>
<Band Freq="50">6</Band>
<Band Freq="60">4</Band>
<Band Freq="70">2</Band>
<Band Freq="80">1</Band>
</EQ>

After selecting this preset in the EQ menu, my .settings.conf file changes to this:

<EQ Bands="9">
<Band Freq="60">4</Band>
<Band Freq="120">0</Band>
<Band Freq="240">0</Band>
<Band Freq="480">0</Band>
<Band Freq="960">0</Band>
<Band Freq="1920">0</Band>
<Band Freq="3840">0</Band>
<Band Freq="7680">0</Band>
<Band Freq="15360">0</Band>
</EQ>

It defaults back to the standard 9 band frequencies and seems to ignore all other settings.
So what am I doing wrong?

The first 4 lines is an attempt to filter out subsonic frequencies to cut out low rumble and ease the job for the amp and speakers.
Should this work?
Is there a better way of blocking all frequencies below 40Hz?
Can dB values smaller than -12, or larger than 12 be used?

Also I have tried using a 15 band EQ, but that just changed into 2 bands.

I am using the newest plugin dated 2nd january.
At his point I am only using the EQ part of the plugin, I will implement room corection shortly.

Any suggestions would be most welcome.
Anyone else got this to work?
