Does anybody know some software to meassure room acoustics and create waterfall charts like this:

And her I found one: http://www.audionet.de/main/service/car ... .html?L=en
It's called Audionet CARMA 3.0 and it's written in Java. Here is an example output of the left speaker in my living room:

This looked interesting as we are looking into building a sound room for music practice.
However when I attempted to run it and it crashed demanding Java 1.5 and I am running 1.6/
As the need isn't immediate I will look into adding a link/pointer or adding Java 1.5 sometime in the future......

I have this java version: jdk-6u24-x86_64-1
I had to cd into the directory and then start by java -jar CARMA.jar

Thanks
I will give it a try.. didn 't think to do that as I have the jre which usually will preclude having to run a java -jar command..especially since this is an exe

In a German HiFi forum someone told me this one is even better: http://www.hometheatershack.com/roomeq/ He said it has a higher resolution at the waterfall chart.
It's written in Java, too. And it's for free, but you have to register to the forum there (hint: bugmenot.com has a usable login)
I did not try it yet, but I will as soon as my measurement microphone arrives. I've bought a Behringer ECM8000: http://www.thomann.de/gb/behringer_ecm_8000.htm
I mean: what's the use of a measurement if the equipment sucks
