Yes, I have found that after reading your post and I was surprised by the strange result in phase. I should pre-process the files in REW anyway.
I did one "lifted up" (REW) that way first, too, but I also found it useful to see how you set it up, too, @XMechanik -- thanks.
Xmechanik, I just read the review of your Mechano23 open source speakers. What a magnificent design!
You put many professional designers and brands to shame. An extraordinary balancing act between performance, complexity and cost.
My most sincere applause.

For those who haven't seen the review: LINK. Amir (the reviewer) is a tough sell, but he loved the Mechano23:
"Innovation sometimes comes from unexpected places. Such is the case with Mechano23 speaker. Member @@XMechanik has produced a masterpiece here. I can't think of a more optimized design in such a packaging and at such a reasonable cost. This is a speaker that you do not in any way apologize for. It rivals the best commercial speakers. Add to this the open-source nature of it and I can't think of more praise I can heap on it!!!"
Take a bow @XMechanik

Is link to download software not active any more (I get to page ''Unfortunately, the page you are looking for in this blog does not exist.'')?
Is software available on any other page?
Thank you and best regards,

Hi, I'm trying out Xmachina and have had quick success with on axis measurements before progressing to off axis and power response. I've read the earlier post pointing to instruction and have successfully loaded all off axis responses which display on the graph. However, when I go to setup the designer task the entire Power resp Target section is greyed out and can't be accessed. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Yeah that one had me for a long time, too. Pretend it's not dimmed and drag that power slider.
What a super contribution to DIY! Thanks for making this software available. The ability to generate and optimize a complex woofer breakup resonance filter like this for the SB woofer for your Mechano23 speaker is impressive. Once loaded into Vituix one can see the impressive performance achieved. The complexity of the filter is high but the parts are relatively small and low cost.
Very nice work!
Very nice work!
I was curious what that 820nF cap did to the woofer filter response, so I modeled a similar bypass on my crossover. It really spikes the dropoff/rolloff cen around 4000hz. That is an interesting effect.
