Calibration and Setup

Microphone calibration is vital to ensuring an accurate measurement of your room. This calibration is done with an SPL calibrator. Maintaining consistent sound levels during your services is crucial for a comfy sound environment and to eliminate those noise complaints.

Using Smaart requires knowledge of some best practices. The goal is to ensure the PA system’s output matches the intended audio being sent out. Diagnosing and resolving sound issues is a use case for Smaart in your church to make informed adjustments to improve your sound quality.

Advanced Techniques and Multi-Microphone Setups

Use multiple microphones for a larger venue. Multiple microphones helps gauge the PA system’s performance in different areas. This helps you account for varying acoustic properties across your venue. Interpreting Smaart data helps make precise EQ and other audio adjustments based on a comprehensive sound analysis.
