EMM-1 microphone on-axis calibration files

[meni]

Hi,

I have a XMC-1 processor and would like to get its microphone with REW when its pointed towards the speakers and not towards the ceiling.
where can i find the proper calibration file ?

thanks.

I have an XMC-1 and was not happy with calibration results using the Emotiva mike and calibration file so I bought the the UMIK-1 from mini dsp. It has calibration files for direct at speakers and ceiling. The calibration files are unique for the mike you purchase. Direct speaker curves were worse than ceiling. It is possible the version for Emotiva does not support direct speaker calibration. I suspect the current version does not as well as I did not see any option in the software to select direct calibration file. This option is available in the Dirac Live software for mini dsp SHD. The UMIK-1 did produce better speaker calibration curves for the Emotiva T2 and T1. Noticeably better sounding filter results for me. Not sure for REW

ttocs has a thread on calibrated mics, with a lot of discussion on Cal files.
