What is QuickEQ?
Cavern QuickEQ is Cavern's advanced and customizable room correction software, bundled with the Cavern Driver. QuickEQ works with various devices,
but uses Equalizer APO for calibrating the sound of PCs.
This section of the documentation deals with the configuration of QuickEQ and exporting its results. On this page, in the other tabs, you can find each of QuickEQ's configuration panels' description.
Export and other guides are available on the sidebar.
Before you start, please note that by default, all settings are set to the values that are correct in most cases.
If you simply select your microphone with its configuration files and press Start, the results will most likely be the best you can get out of your system, and you just have to export it.
Maybe you should try changing the target curve or doing a multi-mic measurement, but in most cases, the default is fine.
Minimal setup
QuickEQ can be a one-click experience, but a single thing has to be set up first: the microphone. The automatically selected system default is most likely the one you'd want to use,
but double checking is always a good safety measure. Depending on your equipment, follow one of the following:
- Using a regular microphone: When the microphone is not calibrated, use the Smoother target curve under the Setup tab. All other options are for calibrated microphones only.
- Using a calibrated measurement microphone: At least one calibration file has to be loaded on the Microphone tab for the calibration to properly work.
After that, you could start the measurement, the default settings are based on what most people like and what works on most systems.
If you don't want to tweak the settings, look at one of the export documentations on the sidebar.
This page and its tabs deal with everything you can modify about EQ generation. All settings can be changed after measurement, nothing requires measuring again.
Controls
