This capability then allows your v8 measurement environment to be spread, not just across multiple monitors, but across multiple computers.Īs with all new versions of Smaart, Rational Acoustics have made many under-the-hood improvements to the Smaart code base and development environment. Smaart's integrated API allows any copy of Smaart v8 to act as a host to any other copy of Smaart v8, meaning you can create a rig with one computer acquiring the input signals and performing the measurement computations, while another acts as a client and remotely accesses the measurement data. This mode-less window can be configured to monitor any of Smaart's input signals via a simple grid configuration process.Ĭontrol for the Smaart I-O gain and phantom power are now integrated directly into the Smaart v8 interface. For this they created the Broadband Meters window. The new Active Plot Legend, or APL, window details the contents of the active/selected plot, showing the names, colors and trace offsets of Live and static data traces as well as providing the controls for hiding/showing the traces.Ī long-time user requested feature is the ability to continuously view input signal levels, as well as monitor parameters such as SPL and LEQ for multiple inputs simultaneously. To address this, they added a command menu and a user-configurable command bar of large, touch-friendly buttons that can be used to call any of Smaart's keyboard-based, Hot-key commands.įor static data, Rational Acoustics have overhauled the trace storage process to allow for better direct access to your larger file structure of captured traces, without cluttering up active memory space trying to keep everything loaded in RAM in case you need it. The increased use of Smaart on tablet/touch screen computers complicated using Hot-Key commands. So they took that concept a step further in v8 and applied it to all interface control elements Rational Acoustics heard from many users that they really liked the hide/show data bar feature available in Smaart v.7 Di because it gave them the ability to maximize the plot area, especially during show time. It is like being able to run multiple sessions of Smaart simultaneously. Rational Acoustics have added the ability to drive multiple windows, each containing its own set of tabbed workspaces. Many users expressed a desire for a tab-based interface where one could configure and switch between multiple workspaces, so Rational Acoustics have expanded the basic measurement group paradigm from v7 and now organize our configurations into tabs which include not only the configured measurements, but also the layout and plot view as well.

Smaart v8 offers new ways to manage your data and your measurement environment, new multi-window capability, a new tab-based interface, added functionality for use on tablets and touch screen computers, computer-to-computer API capability and much, much more.Įasier, More Intuitive Measurement Configuration
#SMAART 7 PRICE SOFTWARE#
With Smaart v8, Rational Acoustics are breaking out of the single window, fixed GUI world to allow increased control over your software environment, allowing you to adapt and expand Smaart to better match your specific applications. From studio to stadium, shop to show, Smaart v8 fits the needs of any measurement situation. Smaart v8 is the most powerful, flexible and adaptable version of Smaart to date.
