System Requirements
System Requirements
The minimum system requirements for the Smaart v9 platform have changed from Smaart v8. Please read the requirements below carefully to ensure v9 is compatible with your system.
| Minimum Req. | Windows | macOS |
| OS Version | Windows 10 (64-bit only) | macOS 10.14 (Mojave) |
| Processor / CPU | 6th gen Intel Core i5 or similar/newer* | 6th gen Intel Core i5 or similar/newer (2015 or newer) Any Apple Silicon M series |
| Memory / RAM | 4GB | 4GB |
| Graphics | Hardware supporting DirectX 12** | Any |
| Display | 1024 x 768 | 1024 x 768 |
| Sound | ASIO® or WAV/WDM drivers | Core Audio drivers |
Note: Minimum requirements are established to ensure reasonable performance when default settings are used. Consider a more powerful computer if you plan to use large FFT sizes, or run many measurements at the same time.
*Smaart does not support "Windows on ARM"
**Must support Feature Level 12 / WDDM 2.0+
Licensing Information
Licensing Information
An Annual Subscription License starts on the day payment is received and continues for a period of one year. Annual Subscription Licenses are billed in-full for the entire year at the beginning of the subscription period. Auto-renew is automatically selected as the default setting for the subscription and at the end of the subscription period you will automatically be billed for an additional one year subscription at then-current pricing.
Annual Subscription Licenses are 1-install only and additional installs cannot be purchased for, or added to, Subscription Licenses. If you wish to run Smaart on more than one computer, you will need to purchase a separate Annual Subscription License for each computer.
Annual Subscription Licenses require a periodic internet connection for license validation and renewal. If the computer on which your software is running is not connected to the internet at least once per month, your software may cease to function.
You can cancel your subscription from within your Smaart License Management account any time up to 24 hours prior to the end of the current subscription period and you will not be billed for future subscription periods. You will not receive a refund for any portion of the fees paid for the current subscription period, unless legally required. See our See our Cancellation & Refund Policy for further details.
If you cancel your subscription, your Annual Subscription License will remain active, and you will be able to use Smaart, until the end of the current subscription period. Once the subscription period has ended, your Annual Subscription License will expire and Smaart will cease to function. If you wish to continue using Smaart, you will need to purchase a new Subscription License.

Smaart Suite is the full-featured flagship Smaart program, including all three industry standard measurement modes (Real Time, Impulse Response, and SPL), with no functional limitations.
Suite is the edition that mostly closely matches the functionality found in Smaart v8.
One Interface, Three Modes
Smaart Suite contains all three Smaart modes: Real-Time, Impulse Response, and SPL. Each mode has a data register, plot area, and control bar associated with it and shares the overall program configuration, command, and control structure.
Real-Time Mode
For a majority of Smaart users, Real Time mode is what makes Smaart smart. The single channel Spectrum, and dual channel Transfer Function measurements are essential tools for professional sound engineers all around the world. Real-Time Mode is specifically designed for sound system engineers to be able to accomplish their alignment and optimization work quickly, efficiently, and effectively.
Impulse Response Mode
Unlike Real-Time Mode which primarily displays measurement data in the frequency domain, IR Mode excels at displaying the response of a system in the time domain, with detailed Linear, Logarithmic, and ETC (energy time curve) views, Histogram and Spectrograph plots, as well as frequency response. Acoustical engineers will appreciate IR Mode for its detailed calculations and tables for RT60, STI, STIPA, CIS, and more.
SPL Mode
Smaart's SPL Mode provides a powerful solution for monitoring, logging, and reporting sound pressure level. With SPL history plots, fully customizable metering, remote-viewing capabilities, Alarms and Event Notes, customizable 'traffic light' meter coloring, logging and report generation, and Class 1 or 2 capability with 10 EaZy hardware - Smaart is the industry's leading software based SPL monitoring solution.

Check out Smaart SuiteFull-featured flagship Smaart program including all three industry standard measurement modes (Real Time, Impulse Response, and SPL), with no functional limitations. If you are a current Smaart user, Suite is the direct upgrade from v8.
-
Check out Smaart RTStand-alone version of the Real Time Mode interface of Smaart Suite. RT includes all of the Real-Time mode features in Smaart Suite with no limitations or changes to the FFT-based measurement functionality. There is no IR mode and no SPL mode.
-
Check out Smaart LEAn edition of Smaart's Real Time Mode interface where the measurement settings for Spectrum and Transfer Function are fixed. If you are a Smaart user and have never changed the settings from defaults, LE is the ideal version of Smaart for you.
-
Check out Smaart SPLA stand-alone version of the SPL Mode interface within Smaart Suite. Smaart SPL is ideal for engineers, facilities, or businesses that don't require the real-time frequency and impulse response capabilities found in Smaart Suite.
