So, arrange the measurement choosing one of the three geometry setup and click “Next” button to
proceed.

Wiring

Connect an ASIO audio card to the PC where the FIR wizard is running, with its proper connection
(USB, Firewire, etc.). Connect the (normally balanced) ASIO card output (XLR or TRS) to the
balanced input (XLR) of the DSP device (e.g the LPP Controller).

Connect the microphone output to the mic input (normally XLR) of the audio card and turn the
