DATS V2

Gowa · November 2018

Has anyone else been having trouble with DATS? I've been trying to measure some coils and getting wacky readings.

Stop fucking around with DATS, buy this and never look back.

Ah, the weekly "why isn't my DATS doing right" post

. Check that its set to 2ch, 48kHz, check the levels etc.

I'll go the other way from JR and say, stop fucking around with DATS, solder some wires to a resistor, then use ARTA, REW, SE, etc and never look back.

So DATS V2.0 is jacked also? I thought they addressed the hardware glitch from V1.0. Jeesh.

That's why I purchased V2.

My DATS has always worked great. But I just order what JR shared.

I never had an issue with datsII not working. However someone swiped my dats II software disk at indy. Hope i never need to reinstall it.

I might have an ISO of that software, Mike. I'll check this weekend to be sure. PE will charge you $20 for a new one.

You don’t really need the disc, the software wan be downloaded for free on the Dayton Audio website. I think the have both the original version and newest version.

JR Is this just and LCR meter or does it display an impedance graph?

PWRRYD · November 2018

I guess I'm one of the rare lucky ones. I have an old version of the WT3 hardware and it has always worked very well for me. Even across several different laptops. Then I swiped Mike's DATS disc and everything went to hell.

It is an LCR meter only, but it accurately measures DCR, ESR, and a couple other things that the soundcard based systems have issues with. Pretty slick device, actually.
