Tune your room with a calibrated mic. Calibrate your mic with an accurate calibrator. Don't calibrate your mic with the room.

If you're using or switching to Software SPL metering then you need an accurately calibrated mic. That doesn't happen by running white noise and comparing it to the level on your handheld meter and then calibrating your software to that.

Your room's response and the eq of your white noise playing in that room does not actually represent the frequency curve of your mic. The only way to calibrate a mic to be useful for room tuneing and for SPL or RTA monitoring is through a real calibrator with accurate reference noise.

SMAART, Open Sound Meter, and MxU all use the same math/science for tuneing. Accuracy doesn't come from the software if it's one of those 3. Accuracy comes from how you calibrate your mic.

Quick tip: SPL metering is included in @mxu.app Dashboards, no need for expensive software anymore if you have MxU for your team. 😉
