Windows XP/2000 Virtual Sound System Software
SoundMan-Server
SoundMan-Server is a Virtual Sound System (VSS) API which
configures and programs in real time with almost unlimited capabilities.
It replaces most traditional audio system components
and license cost is directly proportional to the scope of the
application. The basic configuration is free.
Download SoundMan-Server
Windows XP recommended for optimum operation. Without a license
dongle this runs in Free/Demo mode which provides two live inputs, two outputs
and four playbacks. Note that we do not currently recommend Windows XP Service
Pack 3.
IMPORTANT: REQUIRES a processor with MMX and SSE instruction sets!
Also required for licensed operation are ASIO audio interfaces connected to the
computer with a sufficient number of inputs and outputs.
ASIO4ALL
drivers are sufficient for this purpose.

Free Theatre Sound Design & Show Control Windows GUI for SoundMan-Server
Virtual Sound System Software. Show
controller, sequencer, multichannel programmable live audio processor &
matrix with audio playback. Programs, runs and manages any number of shows,
audio selections and projects. Imports all AB1616 and 1616HD AudioBox
shows and is functionally equivalent to
the model AB1616 AudioBox when used with a licensed 16x16+32x16 SoundMan-Server
or greater.
When used with this licensed software, SM-Designer has 16 live audio
inputs, 16 outputs and 16
playback tracks. The demo/free/offline version has two live audio inputs, two
outputs and four real playbacks while all other channels are in an emulation
mode that accurately
emulates a full size licensed system but outputs no audio.

Windows XP recommended for optimum operation.
IMPORTANT: SM-Designer REQUIRES a processor with MMX and SSE instruction
sets!
Also required for fully licensed operation are at least 16 ASIO audio inputs and
16 ASIO audio outputs. At least 2 ASIO audio inputs and 2 ASIO audio outputs
are required for demo/free operation -
ASIO4ALL
drivers are sufficient for this
purpose. Installation must be done by an administrator but any user can run
the program.
SM-Designer includes three software modules which are installed
by the installer: SM-Designer (a GUI similar to ABEdit),
SM-Assistant (a show controller), and a standard version of
SoundMan-Server.
If you want to update to the latest versions of SM-Assistant and
SoundMan-Server, download them using the links below:

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: This version REQUIRES a dongle for licensed operation!
Please contact RSD for further information.
Windows XP recommended for optimum operation.
IMPORTANT: Shows created or edited with this version are NOT
BACKWARD COMPATIBLE with some much earlier versions.
This will not affect shows using only the show default
MIDI port, but it will require reprogramming
shows made on an older version using multiple MIDI ports.
Therefore, it is important to MAKE A BACKUP OF THE CURRENT SHOW before
upgrading to this version of ShowMan.
We advise you
always to use the latest posted version of ShowMan.
Download ShowMan with Demonstration License File
Unpack this, run ShowManSetup.exe and enjoy for up to one half hour
at a time until it expires three months after creation (see above) or email us
for a demo version for your own use.
Includes E-Show device configuration settings and demo Show with
Scarlatti Sonatas to show how precise cue timing is during
sequence playback.

ABEdit is now technically obsolete for the AB64 although it still allows
the use of an older version of firmware. For the older Model 1616HD and AB1616
it will program all
AudioBox functions including Onboard Shows and load Audio & Show
files into your AudioBox and manage
Projects. Users of 1616HD and AB1616 units should upgrade to
SM-Designer
to avoid problems with SCSI which are being caused by the lack of support for
SCSI processor devices by Microsoft operating systems.
Requires AudioBox Firmware
A439 (Model AB64), V694 (Model 1616HD), or T275 (Model AB1616).
Includes AB64 firmware V439. To use the AB64 with firmware above A439, use
