I've been thinking about some way to determine the EQ settings that's better than trial and error. In a perfect world, I'd like some piece of software that lets me map out the frequency response of my system and then provides me with EQ settings to make it as flat as possible. (Actually, in a super perfect world the empeg would use it's mic input to do a self calibration.) I looked around the net a bit and didn't find anything that did this. The closest I could find were programs that would let me apply EQ settings to a recorded wav file. I was thinking that maybe I could record some pink noise on my laptop and then EQ that. It's not really what I want, though.

Anyone know of any software that provides what I want? Alternatively, I could write my own program or at maybe a spreadsheet that will plot out simulations against my input. But I'd have to learn a lot more about EQ and especially the mysterious Q parameter before I could do this. (I understand what Q does from an intuitive standpoint but I have no idea how to factor it into calculations.)
