A free Mac and Windows app monitors wireless-mic battery, RF, and audio status, with a separate pickup screen for performers.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-22 issue.

For: Live-production RF technicians and stage crews
Worth noticing: A five-second audio waveform is shown alongside RF signal to help distinguish wireless dropouts from audio spikes.

Field notes

The desktop app discovers compatible receivers on the network and serves a shared browser view for the RF desk, audio lead, stage management, and a monitor near the mic table. Its five-second audio waveform sits alongside RF signal, giving crews a way to distinguish a wireless drop from an audio spike while RF remains steady. The homepage lists Shure systems and some Sennheiser models; Sennheiser support is explicitly marked unconfirmed on real hardware.
