But as I explained in my article on the MTRX Studio I chose to replace my HD Omni/ Dirac Live system with the Avid MTRX Studio, as part of my Dolby Atmos Upgrade. I was fortunate that I already own a UMIK-1 USB mic from when I bought my miniDSP Dirac Live 5.1 system. We looked at a range of options and chose to focus on the free application Room EQ Wizard, which together with a UMIK-1 USB measurement mic from miniDSP for $79 provides a cost-effective solution and is the one we are going to use to provide what we believe is the first guide to measuring and setting up an SPQ card. The SPQ card requires that you use a 3rd party application and then somehow translating those measurements manually to create a corresponding EQ curve using the DADman software. The challenge with any version of an SPQ card is that unlike systems such as Sonarworks, Dirac-Live/miniDSP, JBL Intonato, Trinnov, or GenelecвЂ™s GLM the process on the SPQ card is not automatic. That said with 16 channels and even with 16 filters per channel, you wonвЂ™t run out of filters, which means you can configure up to a 9.1.6 system, with 16 filters on every channel and be OK.
