#FUZZMEASURE PRO ON IPAD SOFTWARE#
Considering that Clearwaves can do both RF scanning and coordination, why would someone want to export their scan data and import it into IAS? IAS is the most evolved RF coordination software package available.

IAS doesn’t currently provide any scanning function so you have to use it in tandem with something like Vantage, Touchstone Pro or Clearwaves. I currently down own IAS because I want a version that runs on a Mac. It’s used by the biggest players in the RF coordination industry and for good reason. To be clear, IAS is king of RF coordination. – IAS basic professional version feature comparison I have been told that eventually Vantage will incorporate RF coordination but for the moment the data gathered with Vantage will need to be exported into an RF coordination app like Professional Wireless Services – IAS (PC only) If you’re a mac user, you’ll want to go straight to RF Venue’s VANTAGE app (OSX 10.10 or higher) Clearwaves is currently the only RF scan / coordination app I’m aware of. Even better is ClearWaves which is the equivalent of Touchstone Pro with internal RF coordination functionality. In order to take your scan data and export it into a RF coordination app (list to follow), you at least need Touchstone Pro. Touchstone looks and behaves exactly like Touchstone Pro except you can’t export your data. Picture Touchstone, Touchstone Pro & Clearwaves as the same program with different levels of features. Then I purchased the RF Venue – RF Explorer Rack Pro which at the time was bundled with Clear Waves.

I purchased the handheld scanner and began learning how to use it with Touchstone (free). In the meantime, some of them are either free or very inexpensive.
I’ll explain later which ones I recommend and why. I can argue that both are necessary in different situations.įor PC there are a number of options. One downside to the handheld RF Explorer is that it is fragile and due to the USB port being on the bottom (where you would logically sit it down to scan), you have to pay attention to how you place it, etc… With that said, once you have a handheld scanner with the upgraded Rack Pro antenna and the required SMA to BNC adapter, you’ve got the same options without the ability to rack mount the scanner. It will mount in a rack (so it’s safe) and you could permanently attach it to your RF antenna distribution system so you’re measuring RF with the exact antenna system you’ll be using. It comes with a better antenna for the frequency range we’re typically interested in for RF mics & IEMs.ģ.
There are a few nice things about the Rack Pro that warrant your consideration.Ģ. I actually bought the Rack Pro first and quickly realized that for quick and dirty RF work, the handheld version was more useful. The RF Venue Rack Pro is the same radio as the handheld version. I’d recommend upgrading the antenna and adding a SMA to BNC adapter (more details later) The least expensive, simplest for our purposes is the WSUB1G model. If you get one of these there are many different options. I have multiple software applications I use in tandem with RF scanners to measure an RF environment and calculate what frequencies will work and which ones won’t. I also own a Lectrosonics Venue 2 system that can scan internally and coordinate it’s own frequencies (more later).

Fast forward to today and I own a handheld portable scanner as well as a rack mount unit. At intermission I vowed that I would buy an RF scanner, get the software needed to scan and coordinate frequencies and I would never let that sort of thing happen again with giving it my best effort. One of the mics was taking hits for all of act 1. In early 2016, I had a terrible experience mixing a show where we used some wireless mics and I trusted the tour manager to take care of the RF setup.
For most of my career I’ve been fairly RF illiterate but not suffered any serious consequences. I’ve been dealing with RF mics (Vega) since 1990 when I started working at Casa Manana theater.
