I have learned to capture Impulse Responses from speaker cabs. Well, using my Ox Box as a speaker for now.
Wave Arts IR Capture does a great job and is free. Previous attempt using Reaper and ReaVerb ends in a UI WTF.
Needed a clean amp for the sweep signal and got a tiny TDA2030A based solid state amp from Amazon and soldered some sockets to it.
No enclosure so I put it in a cardboard box.
Actually sounds decent!
Signal chain is USB audio out -> mini amp -> Ox speaker input -> ox line out -> USB audio in. Hardest part was getting levels to match sensibly across the chain and not clip the tiny amp.

@optilude@techhub.social you probably know this, but just in case you don’t the Ox has an RCA (yes, really) jack inside tha acts an an aux input and can take line level signals. It works very well and it’s pretty easy to access once the cover is off (and then reattached). I use it for speaker modeling for amp sims that dont have a power amp :).
