Software
Most AP Audio Analyzers ( 2700 Series, APx Series, ATS-2) are truly analyzer systems, comprised of measurement software running on a connected PC and the instrument hardware. Both components are necessary to make measurements.
For demonstration purposes, you can run the software without instrument hardware in "demo mode." All software navigation, processing, automation and reporting functions operate, but measurement data is simulated using software-generated random noise. No actual measurements are possible without the instrument hardware.

- Note: With APx, If your PC does not meet the recommended minimum configuration, APx500 performance will be noticeably slow. To improve demo performance in such cases, reduce the number of input and output channels from the default to 2 and be sure you are not running other memory-intensive applications.
