Live SPL with Fast, Slow, Leq and Peak. Log a session, watch the trend, export the data.
Two pieces of pro-audio software, built by a working engineer. PA TOOLS puts a field toolkit in your pocket. PATCHER turns patch lists, stage plots and the whole touring advance into a few minutes in the browser.
An SPL meter, signal generator, cable & power calculator, system alignment, recorder and speaker database — the field toolkit for sound engineers.
See the toolbox → Web AppBuild input/output lists, multi-band festival patches and drag-and-drop stage plots in your browser — then advance the whole tour and share it with the crew.
See how it works →Everything you reach for on a show day, in one app. Measure the room, generate test signals, size your cabling, pre-align the PA, record references and look up speaker specs — offline, on stage, in your pocket.
Thirteen instruments. One home screen.

Live SPL with Fast, Slow, Leq and Peak. Log a session, watch the trend, export the data.

Pink & white noise, tones, sweeps, bursts and calibration signals with automated frequency drops.

Power-cable cross-section from current, length and voltage — with voltage drop and AWG conversion.

Delays and spacing for arc and line sub arrays, from coverage angle, frequency and air temperature.

Factory delay, phase and gain presets for common system combinations — before you ever open the analyser.

Channel counts, boxes per output and max SPL per enclosure for amplified speaker configurations.

24-bit / 48 kHz stereo WAV with live metering, markers and USB-interface input for console capture.

A library of reference tracks and test files with looping, waveform editing and instant recall.

Specs, coverage, dimensions and applications for touring loudspeakers — straight from the manufacturers.

Fire an impulse through the rig and read the first captured peak — positive is in phase, negative flags reversed wiring or polarity.

Measure time-of-flight between your farthest and nearest systems, then get a recommended delay alignment you can copy straight to the processor.

Wavelength, λ/2 and λ/4, period and phase rotation per metre for any frequency — with a live waveform plot and temperature-aware speed of sound.
A real-time analyser with selectable weighting and fractional-octave resolution. Overlay a live capture against a stored reference to see exactly where the room is fighting you — from 20 Hz to 20 kHz.

Stop rebuilding the same spreadsheet for every gig. PATCHER lays out inputs and outputs, patches a whole festival across multiple bands, and draws a stage plot the crew can actually read — and now runs your touring advance, with venues filling in their own details. All saved, exportable and shareable.
Lay out your inputs and outputs the way the console sees them. Mics, DIs, stands, phantom power, groups, monitor sends and notes — fielded, color-coded and editable inline.
Share a single input list across every act on the bill, then flag exactly who uses what. The multi-band matrix shows every band's patch at a glance, color-coded so nothing gets lost at line check.
Drag instruments, monitors, risers and tech onto a scaled stage. Snap to grid, rotate, label and zone — everything tied back to your patch, so the plot and the channel list never drift apart.
Drums, bass, guitars, keys, strings, brass, vocals, comms — ready-made input templates you drop in and tweak. Build a festival rig in minutes and save your own for next time.
PATCHER now runs the whole tour, not just the patch. Plan every date, let venues complete their own details, and keep the stage and FOH talking on the night.
Every show, its status and advancing progress in one table.
A no-login link the venue fills in — answers flow straight back to you.
Per-channel flags and live chat from line check to showtime.
Plan the whole tour from a single dashboard. Add each date, track advancing progress per show, and see at a glance which venues have replied — and which still owe you answers.
| Date | City | Status | Confirmed |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14 Jun | Paris | Done | |
| 16 Jun | Lyon | Open | |
| 18 Jun | Toulouse | Open | |
| 21 Jun | Bordeaux | Open | |
| 23 Jun | Nantes | Done |
Generate a private link and the venue completes load-in, power, PA and parking themselves — no account, no app. Their answers land straight back in your show, flagged the moment something's new.
Stage techs open a read-only link, flag any channel and chat with FOH in real time. Flags move from unread to in-progress to resolved, so nothing slips between line check and downbeat.
Free to try. Nothing to install. Works on any laptop.
