TRACT Sytem Calibration

Auto-correction equalization and time alignment for any sound system

Integrated with Smaart software (supports Smaart version 9 Suite, RT, and LE)

Ideal for live performance systems, monitor correction, and studio spaces

Automatically detects and corrects EQ issues in room acoustics

Applies time alignment to minimize phase problems between system components

Runs as a plugin within Waves eMotion LV1, SuperRack, or any major DAW

Mix with confidence, knowing you are hearing accurate, calibrated audio

Includes both linear-phase and minimal-phase FIR filter options

Features 8 bands of high-quality parametric IIR filters

Restore sonic clarity lost in untreated spaces

Customize your own reference target curves

Save and recall up to 8 measurement snapshots

Designed to simplify PA tuning, front fill delay alignment, and sub phase correction

User-friendly workflow with capture, merge, and auto-calculation tools

General Specifications

Plugin for automatic EQ correction and time alignment

Integrates with Smaart v8 and v9 (Suite, RT, LE)

Compatible with eMotion LV1, SuperRack, and major DAWs

Runs in SoundGrid environments or standard plugin hosts

No additional hardware required

Measurement Integration

Uses real-time spectrum and transfer function measurements from Smaart

Captures and stores up to 8 room response snapshots

Allows merging of multiple captures into averaged snapshot

Reference signal compared to measurement to generate correction

EQ Correction Features

Calculates and applies corrective EQ to flatten frequency response

Includes FIR filter curve generation based on captured measurements

Supports user-defined or factory reference curves (flat, boosted, X-curve)

FIR banding resolution selectable from 1 octave to 1/48 octave

Constrains FIR correction by frequency and amplitude range

Time Alignment Features

Automated delay detection using Smaart's delay finder

Inserts and adjusts delay based on measured vs. current alignment

Track mode compensates for changing delays in real-time

Apply delta function to sync system delay

EQ Processing Tools

8-band IIR EQ (used with or without FIR processing)

Band types: bell, shelf, tilt, flat-top, cut, all-pass

Custom user reference curves can be created from IIR or captures

Phase and Sub Alignment

Phase trace alignment supported for sub and crossover integration

Sub Zoom view for low-frequency monitoring (27 Hz to 240 Hz)

Optional use of all-pass filters for phase alignment

Workflow and Use Cases

Tune full-range speakers, align front fills and subs

Suitable for FOH system engineers or mix engineers

Can operate standalone with IIR only when Smaart is unavailable

Allows accurate, consistent tuning across venues

Display and Control Features

Graph displays spectrum, magnitude, phase, and EQ traces

Remote control Smaart generator and measurements from TRACT

Toolbar includes preset management, undo/redo, and resize options

Latency

Minimal Phase: approx 0.15 ms

Linear Phase: approx 11.7 ms depending on configuration

System Requirements

Requires Smaart license and configuration for measurement functionality

SoundGrid or DAW host needed for plugin operation

Manual or auto configuration of IP via Smaart API connection panel
