Performance Manager version 2.1 integrates Rational Acoustics' Smaart acoustic testing and measurement software directly into the Performance Manager workflow, providing audio technicians and engineers with unprecedented access to measurement information - all delivered over the network in real-time.
"We are pleased to collaborate with Rational Acoustics to integrate industry-leading Smaart technology directly within our software platform, which now includes extremely powerful measurement integration for seamless measuring and tuning operations," said George Georgallis, product manager, tour sound systems, Harman Professional Solutions.
"With version 2.1, real-time frequency and phase response measurements are displayed and controlled within Performance Manager, allowing engineers to measure and adjust system parameters from one screen. This simplifies and accelerates the system optimization process while eliminating opportunities for errors."
"JBL Professional has taken great advantage of the Smaart API to provide an elegant, easy-to-use interface for controlling and viewing Smaart measurement data within the new Performance Manager 2.1," said John Aldrich, director of technical services, Rational Acoustics. "This integration underscores the shared commitment between both companies of providing comprehensive and powerful software toolkits for today's audio technicians and engineers."
In addition to Smaart software integration, Performance Manager 2.1 features an entirely new Go-Online mode that offers more intuitive options for system synchronization and management of online devices.
