Hi,
Depends what part you want to measure... the recovered signal, the average carrier or peak envelope power of the whole thing? 😕
Cheers!

I want to measure the frequency response of a sweep on CD to make corrections on the analog filter for a nonos DAC.
@ 20kHz it is already modulated like in the picture, and I am not sure how the amplitude should be to have a linear response.
The question might be, what does the ear detect, the maximum peak value or something else ?

Ah, now we have this in context, you are witnessing "aliasing" - a beatnote when the sample frequency is (hideously complex math) with the recorded frequency.
When I encounter this, I usually try a different playback device 🙂
The ear detects average and when two signals are concerned, the linear sum.
Anybody that can be more helpful, jump in...

The amplitude of the signal as shown in the picture shall be compared to a clean 1 kHz sine.
So the question is:
Is the response linear if the cursor keeps touching the curve during the sweep ?

So RMS would be correct ?
