From the keyboard, use Alt+1, Alt+2 etc. through Alt+0 to save to memories 1 through 10. Use Alt+Shift+1, 2 etc. through 0 to save to memories 10 through 20. For example, to save the current response to Memory 5 you would press and hold the Alt key and then press the 5 key.

Note: The most recently measured impedance plot is said to reside on the WT3 “Workbench.” This measurement is overwritten each time the analyzer is run. The Workbench is also overwritten when a memory is recalled or when data is imported. Once you have measured data you want to keep (even temporarily) save it to one of the 20 memories before proceeding with another measurement. All data in the 20 memories is saved with the WT3 project file. Multiple memories can be overlaid to allow for easy comparison of various measurements. Use the memory buttons in the Toolbar to show or hide various memories. After a memory has been recalled it can then be saved to a different memory. After a memory is recalled it is available to be exported to a .txt file.

Show/Hide Memory

These commands alternately show and hide the selected memory.

•From the keyboard, use Ctrl+1, Ctrl+2 etc. through Ctrl+0 to show or hide memories 1 through 10

•Use Ctrl+Shift+1, 2 etc. through Ctrl+Shift+0 to show or hide memories 10 through 20

For example, to toggle the display of the response in Memory 5 you would press and hold the Ctrl key and then press the 5 key. Use Ctrl+W to toggle the display of the Workbench response. In addition to the menu and keyboard commands, you can also toggle each memory on or off at the Memory Toolbar.

Clear Memory

These commands erase the contents of the specified memory.

•From the keyboard, use Ctrl+Alt+1, Ctrl+Alt+2 etc. through Ctrl+Alt+0 to clear the contents of memories 1 through 10

•Use Ctrl+Alt+Shift+1, 2 etc. through Ctrl+Alt+Shift+0 to clear the contents of memories 10 through 20

For example, to erase the response in Memory 5 you would press and hold the Ctrl and Alt keys and then press the 5 key. Should you need to clear all of the memories it is usually easier to just create a new project file by selecting "New" under the "File" menu.

Hide All Memories (Ctrl+E)

This command turns off the display of all memories without affecting the contents of the memories.

WT3 specifications

The Dayton WT3 is a sophisticated and highly regarded tool in the field of audio measurement and analysis, particularly known for its precision in loudspeaker testing. This comprehensive device integrates several advanced features and technologies, making it an essential choice for audio professionals, engineers, and hobbyists alike.

One of the standout characteristics of the Dayton WT3 is its dual-channel capability, allowing users to conduct simultaneous measurements of two different loudspeakers. This feature is particularly useful in stereo systems where matching drivers is essential. The WT3 utilizes a high-resolution analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that ensures accurate and detailed frequency response measurements, providing users with the data they need to refine and optimize their audio setups.

The WT3 is equipped with a user-friendly interface that simplifies the measurement process. Its software is intuitive and runs on Windows, which means that users can easily navigate through various options to configure tests and analyze results. The inclusion of a built-in microphone makes it possible to perform room acoustics measurements, further enhancing its versatility.

Another key technology integrated into the Dayton WT3 is its frequency sweep capability. By generating continuous sine wave sweeps across a wide frequency range, the WT3 can analyze the response of loudspeakers in real-time. This allows for identifying resonances, distortion, and other critical parameters that affect sound quality.

The WT3 also features a range of measurement modes, including impedance measurements, which can be invaluable for understanding how a loudspeaker behaves across different frequencies. This data is displayed in easy-to-read graphs and charts, facilitating a straightforward interpretation of results.

Moreover, the Dayton WT3 utilizes advanced signal processing algorithms that help in reducing noise and other unwanted artifacts that can skew measurements. The device's accurate phase response measurement capability further distinguishes it from competitors, providing essential data for crossover design and speaker alignment.

In summary, the Dayton WT3 combines advanced measurement technology with an intuitive user experience, making it an essential tool for those seeking precise loudspeaker performance insights. Its features and capabilities position it as a valuable asset for both professional audio engineers and enthusiasts dedicated to achieving the best possible sound quality. Whether for designing new speakers or optimizing existing setups, the WT3 delivers reliable performance and accuracy.
