Live on stage Concerts and shows become unforgettable
experiences. For this to happen, you need a system that you can depend
on 100 % of the time. The WSM makes configuration more reliable and
easier than ever before, particularly in constantly changing venues when
on tour.
Broadcast/TV studio Whether recorded or broadcast
live: perfect sound and reliability are the fundamental requirements for a
successful television broadcast. Using the Wireless Systems Manager, you
can monitor all connected devices and keep a cool head especially during
hectic production schedules. The strengths of the software become espe-
cially apparent on complex studio networks. With special administrative
rights, you can also manage the workflow in a large team and ensure that
the show runs smoothly and successfully.
Theater During spectacular stage productions and musicals with
m
any performers and channels, control during every scene is fundamental
to a successful show. Using the Wireless Systems Manager, you can
maintain an overview and ensure interference-free and reliable audio
transmission.
Office The preparation of major events require absolute concentra-
tion. Using the Wireless Systems Manager, you can make the adjustments
for your event in peace and quiet from the office thanks to the off-line
mode.

Off-line configuration: Time saving and comfort Using
the WSM, you can prepare all of your settings in off-line mode without
having the necessary hardware connected. You can configure your
system on the computer practically anywhere – even in the office or
the tour bus – as you need it for the production later on.
At the production venue, the WSM loads the configuration, defined
off-line, into the connected devices. This saves valuable time and you
can focus on what matters most: perfect sound for your event.
Multi-Access: control and reliability on the network
The WSM turns you into a team manager: you can provide essential
information to colleagues located elsewhere and check device settings
online without having to leave the room.
You can determine which users have the right to change settings in
the system, with up to six PCs or Macs used at the same time on the
network.
“Scenes”: Able to handle any event Depending on how
many channels you operate, the WSM can be flexibly adapted to your
area of application. You can specify which panels you would like
displayed at a certain point in time in what order and at what size.
These scenes give you a realtime overview over your system.

Panels All important information at a glance, even during hectic
productions: the panels of the WSM display all the necessary parameters
of the system in real-time, such as the RF level, audio level, name,
frequency, status of the battery and more.
The intelligent warning system informs you of possible irregularities
quickly and reliably, such as if a battery has a low charge. You can
customize the size and display format of the panels (e.g. night mode)
for the individual production.
RF level recorder Using this flexible tool, you can ensure that your
wireless microphone system is transmitting the individual signals per-
fectly to every point of the stage or studio. At each antenna, the RF level
recorder determines the signal strength of a wireless transmitter, based
on its position in the room and precisely locates points of poor reception.
This results in interference-free sound and reliable transmission.
RF spectrum analyzer More up-to-date and more dependable than
any list, the WSM displays the frequencies available for your transmission
within a matter of seconds. At a glance, you can see the size of the avail-
able slots in the frequency spectrum and monitor the field strength of all
radio signals present.
