I am trying to use PCD for a crossover I am needing to build. I am attepting to import frd and zma data from PE's Clio files and I am having problems. PCD will not recognize the frd files, while it does recognize the zma files, it acts as it is loading them but nothing happens. The files have .frd and .zma file extensions on them. I have also deleted any text and blank space above the info as someone else suggested.

If this matters, the design I am attempting is using dual Dynavox 6.5's and a Dynaudio D-28 AF tweeter. These will be going into enclosures that will be built in to a wall where the wall will become the baffle.

A second variation I would like to attempt is making the above system a 3 way adding a midrange driver.

I already have the woofers and tweeters, so I am set on doing something using those. The mids are still a big question mark.

The primary use of these will be 2ch. stereo playback with occasional 5.1 HT use.

Check to see if there is any non-data text at the bottom of your FRD file. If so, remove.

Regarding your ZMA, you need to make sure you are loading the required excel add-ins:

Thank you, that worked for the impedance files, but I am still unable to load frequency response files.

PCD does not recognize them in the folder I have them saved in, they don't show up as an option. I assume .frd is the correct file extension for these files in PCD?

Never mind, all of a sudden it decided to work.
