[QUOTE="Riley Casey, post: 217273, member: 125"] There are a couple of cross platform options for FFT analysis in the donation ware realm. Open Sound Meter is a very sleek interface but does much of the core measurement functions. Room EQ Wizard is popular with home hifi types and has some over lap with Smaart functionality. They both take some reading up on to get going and they aren't nearly as comprehensive as Smaart but they are an option if your market has you working on shows that pay less than a single Smaart license. Analysis mics can be had pretty cheaply as in under $100. If you have a digital console that will connect to a computer for recording you have your computer interface already in hand. Again even X32s have adequate output delay functionality for things like delay speaker zones although may not be capable of fractional delay times needed for aligning multiway systems but the you likely have that built into a digital crossover. If you simply want a capable Swiss army knife DSP look for an Ashly Protea 4.24D. These have been out of production for a few years, they have Euroblock connectors for I/o and will require a connector panel and a harness and they have serial port control interface so need a serial to USB adaptor but they often turn up on Ebay for $250 and the control software works fine on Windows 10, even on a virtual machine.
