mini2EQ is a cute little website and standalone program that let you convert a miniDSP calibration microphone's factory calibration file to an equalizer preset that you can import to your favorite software.
I want to use one of MDSP's calibration mics to ensure a flat response in my sound systems. To make sure these mics are perfectly flat, you can get a factory calibration file customized for your exact one. Unfortunately, I couldn't get this data working in any of my favorite free and open-source software using a more common format, so I just made mini2EQ to do this conversion for me.
With mini2EQ, you can now use this calibration file in anything that supports its output formats, such as EasyEffects and Peace EQ.
You'll need at least Python 3.7 to run mini2EQ locally.
Only read this section if you're using the local Python version of mini2EQ.
Click the mini2eq.py file here in GitHub and use the download button on its page to download it.
In your favorite terminal or command prompt, run this command:
python mini2eq.py (format) <input_file>Replace (format) with one of the available formats below:
- APO:
--apo
Optionally, add any of the options below:
- Number of EQ bands:
--bands <n> - Custom output file:
--output <file>
You'll see a new file with the converted data. Import this into your favorite equalizer software and get calibrating!
