One could also purchase (5) of the Lectrosonic TM400 measurement kits. The lower blocks work well around the country so you shouldn’t have too many problems. We would recommend block 470, block 19 or block 20. (5) HM plug-on transmitters (specify block) This is a list of the gear needed which uses the 1RU Venue receiver frame: Note that I use Earthworks measurement mics so the list includes the adapter needed to have those work with the HM plugin transmitter. Below are the answers I received from John Muldrow Lectrosonics. Having recently worked with Sound Mirror (a classical recording firm) on an opera production and then installing a new sound system at the Indianapolis Zoo, both using Lectrosonics wireless gear, I wrote the company to ask how I might build a multi channel More soon… Optimum System Solutions – “Optimization Before Replacement” In the meantime the good news is that it works (given the right gear and configuration). I would share the information here and now but Arthur stated that he’s working on an official document on the subject so I’ll let him get that all done and then provide access to that information. His response was both quick and lengthy, providing all the details one could hope for. At this point using Line 6 wireless gear for audio measurements is a departure from the industry standard “tried and true” Lectrosonics gear and doing so requires a bit of courage & experimentation to get it all to work. Come to find out he likely has the largest Line 6 measurement rig in the world at 5+ channels. – Arthur Skudra profileīased on multiple posts to the Rational Acoustics forum Arthur has made on the subject of using Line 6 wireless gear for audio measurement purposes, I emailed him a few days ago to ask him what his current thoughts were. If you already have a XLR mic and interface.ARthur Skudra is a Rational Acoustics Smaart instructor among other things: It might cost a little more upfront but so worth it compared to a usb microphone since you can use open sound meter with that and get useable results all the way up to 20 khz.Ī combination of the Dayton Mic and one of those interfaces would range anywhere from about $160-$300. If you are just starting out in tuning, invest in a XLR measurment microphone like the dayton Emm6 and a device to interface with your computer. Smaart was worth the purchase for me for that stuff.

I will be using it when I teach waves to my physics classes and my wife is also a theatre teacher so will be showing her how to use it and her tech students for their shows. I would even suggest purchasing Smaart di 2, it will save you a bunch of time. If you are going to be measuring a lot of different things, I would at least get a XLR microphone and something like a motu m2 or focusrite 2i2 and use open sound meter. So overall, I can definitely recommend open sound meter and if you aren't using it (even with a usb microphone and a cheap loopback device) you are missing out on very valuable information. Smaart has a lot of keyboard shortcuts that makes things super quick to measure.
Smaart always remembers your settings, probably that autosave everything. I created a m4 and a usb sound card setting and switch between the two instantly when I was taking those measurements.
Smaart just remembers all of your stuff everytime. Like close it on accident and re-open without changing anything it will remember. It does seem to remember if everything is ALWAYS plugged in. It doesn't remember if you unplug something. It will take overall more time because you have to change all of the settings every time you open it.
Overall Open sound meter works well enough if you are just tuning one thing and then putting everything away. Saving -> Smaart auto saves everything and recalls everything upon opening, Open sound meter doesn't even warn you before you exit.ask me how I know. Setting up and Measuring again -> Smaart is easier (it remembers and you can easily create pairs to switch) Initial measurement setup -> Open Sound Meter was easier I have been playing with smaart only for a little bit (The demo then I purchased my own copy recently). Here are some final thoughts after playing some more with Open Sound Meter vs.
