Now enter the "Audio I/O" menu and check that both sampling frequencies are set to 48 kHz. Now you can start the program itself.īy default the program is monitoring only the left channel, normally you don't have to change this. If you have the nVIDIA Soundstream, set line-in slider at about 1/4. With most soundcards you can set all slider at full. In recording side select line-in, if you can mute the others, do it. This is crucial if you don't want to have some nasty microphone feedback. If you can't see the line-in slider, enable it through options/properties and mute it. In playback side all sliders except wave/mp3 and master volume should be muted. Enter by double-clicking the speaker icon on the lower right corner of your desktop (if you can't see this, enter through control panel).
Before you start the program, check your soundcard settings. You can just connect the other channel (use left) or both. This better file is actually property of Edward Mullen (perfect for his mic), so everyone who's using this file, remember to thank Ed!įirst you have to make a simple loop from line out to line-in using the normal RCA cables and proper 1/8" connectors. Don't use the file that comes with TrueRTA. It's basically very flat even without any corrections, but here is a correction file for it too. Much better choice is a Behringer ECM8000 microphone and a Behringer UB802 preamp/phamtom power. The digital version does not need any corrections when connceted from the output jack. I personally have the older analog model, but the newer analog will work just fine. With the correction file it is reasonably accurate down to 15-16Hz. Frequency response of the RS meter limits up to around 10kHz (even with correction file). Save it as a text file along your other correction files (in "TrueRTA/Mic calibration files" folder). NOTE: Check the end of this post, more info about RS.

You can download the correction file from here. You can find few compensation charts for it, but none of them is perfect for your meter. You can use the Radio Shack SPL meter as a microphone, but its accurancy is not very good. For example M-Audio MobilePre USB is great. Use a USB or PCMCIA soundcards with laptops. I haven't yet seen a laptop with a decent soundcard. Integrated soundcards like nVIDIA Soundstorm will work, but they are more difficult to calibrate, you need to set the input/output levels very carefully with them. If you have some expensive soundcard, it will most probably work. Soundcard must have line in and line-out connections. Most modern soundcards will work just fine, for example almost any Soundblaster (Live, Audigy, Aydigy2 etc.) is fine.

Computer/laptop equipped with a decent soundcard.Ī 500 MHz Pentium III class PC with 64MB RAM running The program itself is very small (~1.4MB installed), but the project files are around 10MB each, so make sure you have atleast that much of free space on that drive. Here is a little proof why 1/24 is recommended.īefore anything, read the help files/topics, they are very helpful. If you absolutely can't make it, take level 3, it comes with 1/6 octave resolution. Level 4 retails $99.95, but it's all worth it.

I definitely recommend level 4, because this way you get the full 1/24 octave resolution, which is almost a MUST, especially if you are planning to some EQ'ing with BFD or similar.
#Truerta support upgrade
True Audio offers four different upgrade levels from 1 to 4. To make the most of it, you need to purchase an upgrade. Unfortunately the demo is quite limited so you can't really use it efficiently. The free demo of the program can be downloaded from here. TrueRTA is a nice and small RTA-program (Real Time Analyzer) made by John Murphy.

Then choose another program and check the "Always Open With" box. Mac: Right click (or Ctrl-click) the RTA file, then click "Open with" > "Other.". Now select another program and check the box "Always use this app to open *.RTA files". Windows: Right click on any RTA file and then click "Open with" > "Choose another app". Associate the RTA file extension with the correct application.
