The full version runs natively on both macOS and Windows operating systems with shared command structures. It features a advanced multi-window system, allowing you to drag different measurement plots onto multiple external monitors for a comprehensive command-center view. How Audio Professionals Use Smaart Live 1. System Alignment and Tuning
The SPL mode turns Smaart into a professional sound level meter.
To "create a piece" (set up your first measurement) in the full version, follow this workflow: 1. Hardware Connection Audio Interface:
Need specific instructions for a measurement task (e.g., aligning subwoofers with Smaart Live)? Let me know.
Move the measurement microphone to the crossover zone between your main PA and the subwoofers. Observe the phase traces of both systems. Adjust the delay on the subwoofers or the mains until the phase angles match perfectly through the crossover region, preventing a loss of low-end punch. Step 5: Zone Balancing
A 2-day course covering the fundamentals of setting up and configuring a Smaart measurement rig and using Smaart v9 to make basic RTA, Spectrograph, Transfer Function, and Impulse Response measurements.
As one industry professional noted, Smaart Live has been around a long time and offers a lot of features. That longevity, combined with continuous innovation through versions like v9’s improved transfer function engine and SyncSource™ technology, ensures that Smaart remains the gold standard—now and for the foreseeable future.
Rational Acoustics offers two primary models for acquiring the full software:
, is a multi-channel flagship platform that includes all of Smaart's powerful measurement capabilities with no functional limitations. Key Measurement Modes
The magic of the full version lies in its dual-channel Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis. Unlike single-channel analyzers that merely show you a "picture" of the room, Smaart's dual-channel Transfer Function compares a reference input (the signal going into the system) against a measurement input (the signal captured by a microphone).
If you are interested in trying Smaart, I can help you find where to download a demo or show you what hardware you'll need to run it.
Run unlimited measurement engines simultaneously.
The full version offers superior capability for averaging, storing, and analyzing traces.
