Demonstration mode

All of our software installations contain a demonstration mode, which is automatically activated in case no SmartScope is connected. This allows everyone to evaluate the software. Simply grab our installer from our download page and give it a spin!
For Android phones and tablets we have implemented an Audio Scope, which allows you to test our software on real-world signals.

In case of a crash: please send in the CrashReport!

We're not proud of crashes. On the contrary, we do everything possible to fix and avoid them. Please help us and fellow users by sending in the crash report, automatically generated in the unfortunate event of a crash.

In the meantime, you might want to go through our troubleshooter:
