What’s New:
September 7, 2026
– New PA system measurement plugins have been added to the TRACT System Calibration bundle:
– TRACT Measure — allows you to measure your PA system directly within the eMotion LV1 console or SuperRack. No external measurement software or second computer is required. The plugin lets you capture the system’s frequency response and latency, then directly transfer the measurement results to the TRACT System Calibration correction plugin.
– TRACT SPL Meter — allows you to monitor and log sound pressure levels (SPL) directly within LV1 or SuperRack.
– The complete TRACT bundle (including TRACT Measure, TRACT System Calibration, and TRACT SPL) is available for perpetual purchase. It is also included in the Live Plus, Mercury, Pro Show, and SD7 Pro Show bundles, as well as the Waves Ultimate subscription.
