Trying to learn DSP crossover when you have only GEQ. Waveguide plus midwoofer crossed at ~2kHz:
Example hardware:
it has autotune build in but I think it will not work.
- how to calculate a god HF lift?
- use nearfield plus lets say 1 meter measurements?
- no autotune in eg REW? all manually by trial and error?
- what about step response and tweeter delay?
- better use low order and match acoustic slopes?
- Bessel, Butter, Linkwitz slopes for crossover 6-48dB
Example hardware:
it has autotune build in but I think it will not work.
What are you trying ? Is it crossover filtering or speaker/room compensation ?
Your picture shows Parametric EQ. I assume GEQ is graphic EQ, where only the gain is adjustable with fixed Q-factor and frequencies, often spaced sub-multiples of an octave apart. For a GEQ to be successful, the number of bands needs to be high, for example the common one-third octave GEQ is 31 or 32 bands across.

Point is about methodology/software used to get result fast and efficient, example:

(with GEQ I can define freq/q/gain, with PEQ I can't in that soft from 1 post)

Well, that is in direct conflict with conventional wisdom.

Fortunately, it is also the source of the confusion. If you're planning on using software, you'd have to call it parametric (PEQ). Both VCAD and REW have them.
REW EQ output:
I don't have HS - high shelf. How to use PEQ instead?
Filter 1: ON PK Fc 1147 Hz Gain 1.10 dB Q 1.000
Filter 2: ON PK Fc 2140 Hz Gain -7.60 dB Q 1.446
Filter 3: ON PK Fc 6725 Hz Gain -1.60 dB Q 1.000
Filter 4: ON HS Fc 9928 Hz Gain 5.10 dB
Filter 5: ON PK Fc 17202 Hz Gain -2.40 dB Q 1.573
