2-Day Smaart Operator: Advanced Training Class hosted by Rational Acoustics and taught by Jamie Anderson.

CLASS DESCRIPTION

The 2-day Smaart Operator: Advanced class picks up where Smaart Operator: Fundamentals leaves off, taking a deep dive into various topics which extend beyond the Fundamentals course.

Attendance for the Smaart Operator: Advanced class is limited to 16 attendees. All attendees are required to have received Smaart Operator Level 1 Certification prior to registering or provide proof that they previously attended an in-person or online Smaart Operator: Fundamentals course.

Smaart Operator Advanced is certified for 6.5 Renewal Units (RU’s) for the InfoComm (Avixa) CTS, CTS-D and CTS-I programs.

Class price includes class materials, lunch on all class days, a class t-shirt and a Certificate of Attendance upon completion of the class. A $250 deposit is due at the time of registration to secure your spot in the class, with the balance due 2 weeks prior to the class start date. Or, you can choose to pay the class fee in-full at the time of registration. Class fees may be paid via credit card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Discover).

Every class attendee is entitled to discounts on purchases of Smaart v9 perpetual licenses. You can purchase a license at the time of registration and upon successful processing of your registration and payment, a license code will be emailed to you along with activation instructions. Licenses will only be emailed upon payment in-full of class registration fees, so if you choose to only pay the deposit at the time of registration, your license will not be emailed to you until the balance is paid 2 weeks prior to the class start date.

If you choose not to purchase a license during the registration process, you will be emailed a coupon code upon completion of the class to purchase a discounted license from our online store. Coupons are valid for 90 days after the class.

The measurement signals used in the instruction of the Operator: Advanced class will be distributed using a Dante audio network. For the lecture portion of the class attendees must bring a laptop computer with both the latest version of Smaart v9 measurement software and Dante Virtual Soundcard (DVS) installed. A 30 day demo version of Smaart v9 is available online at this link. Dante Virtual Soundcard can be obtained from the Audinate (Dante Virtual Soundcard’s manufacturer) web site at www.audinate.com either by purchase or via a temporary trial installation.
