Introduction

Welcome to WildTrax 2027, the multitrack recorder built for production sound: film, television, broadcast and live events. WildTrax is made for recording, reporting and delivery, not editing or mixing, so everything in it serves one goal: clean, well-labeled audio that post can trust.

System Requirements

Operating System

Hardware

Audio Hardware

WildTrax works with any Core Audio interface.

Network

Additional Software

Performance scales with your hardware. A dedicated interface, a wired network and closing background apps give the most stable experience in the field.

Installation

Step 1: Download WildTrax

  1. Go to https://wildtrax.io.
  2. Download the latest WildTrax 2027 installer for macOS.

Step 2: Install

  1. Open the downloaded .dmg file from your Downloads folder.
  2. Drag WildTrax into your Applications folder.

Step 3: Launch WildTrax

  1. Open your Applications folder and double-click WildTrax.
  2. If macOS asks, confirm that you want to open it.

Step 4: Grant Permissions

macOS asks for each permission the first time WildTrax needs it. Click Allow:

You can change these later in System Settings → Privacy & Security. If you turned Microphone off, turn it on there and reopen WildTrax.

Step 5: Log In

Sign in with your WildTrax account, or create one. See Account and License.

Step 6: Create or Open a Project

The Project Manager opens at launch: start a new project, open one, or pick a recent one. WildTrax detects your audio interfaces automatically.

WildTrax 2027 installs alongside WildTrax 2026: they are separate apps with separate settings. The first time you open 2027, it can bring over your 2026 preferences and login.

Account and License

WildTrax uses your account to activate your license and unlock the features of your plan. Manage it in the app (Preferences → Account) or online at https://wildtrax.io.

Creating an Account

  1. Launch WildTrax and choose to log in.
  2. Your browser opens the WildTrax account page. Create an account with your name, email and a password.
  3. Confirm your email from the message we send you.
  4. Log in. The browser hands you back to WildTrax, which is now signed in.

Logging In

  1. Open Preferences → Account and click Log In.
  2. Sign in on the account page that opens in your browser.
  3. WildTrax signs in automatically when you return to it.

Plans

WildTrax plans unlock features in tiers: Demo, Basic, Essential and Pro. Features that need a higher plan are labeled in the app. Your current plan is shown in Preferences → Account.

💡 Demo is free, and it's more than a trial. It doesn't expire, and everything outside its limits works: metadata and timecode, sound reports in CSV and PDF, the Library, Player, Timeline, Spectrum Analyzer and Toolkit. Use it to learn WildTrax before a job, prepare a project, fix metadata on files from another recorder, or build and deliver a sound report. Demo records 2 tracks and holds 2 sample pads and 2 playlist entries; custom routing, accent colors and your own logo on PDF reports need a paid plan.

Subscriptions can be canceled at any time with no further commitment; access continues until the end of the billing period. Use Manage Subscription to change your plan, see billing or cancel.

Devices

Logging Out

Click Logout in Preferences → Account. Logging out doesn't delete projects, preferences or recordings; they're there when you log back in.

Quick Start Guide

A few minutes of setup makes sure inputs are patched correctly, recordings are clean and metadata is right from the first take.

Step 1: Connect Your Audio Interface

  1. Power on your interface and connect it by USB, Thunderbolt or network (Dante, MADI).
  2. Launch WildTrax. In Preferences → Device, choose your Input Device, Output Device, Sample Rate and Buffer Size.

Step 2: Patch Inputs

  1. Open the I/O Matrix panel on the Input tab.
  2. Click a cell to patch a hardware input to a track. Option-click patches a whole diagonal at once.
  3. Check that each track shows signal on its meter in the Tracks panel.

Step 3: Set Up Tracks

  1. In the Tracks panel, set the track count and name each track (Boom, Lav 1, …).
  2. Arm each track you want to record.
  3. Use Monitor All, or each track's monitoring controls, to listen.

Step 4: Set Up Files

  1. In the Files panel, add a Destination: the folder recordings are written to. Add more destinations to record to several drives at once.
  2. Add files to the destination, choose each file's tracks, bit depth and format, and set its name with tokens such as {scene}, {take} and {tc}.
  3. Set file size or duration limits if you need them.

Step 5: Enter Metadata

  1. In the Metadata panel, fill in Project, Scene, Slate, Take, Roll and Note.
  2. Choose which fields increment with each take and reset when the scene changes.

Step 6: Set Timecode

In Preferences → Time, set the frame rate and time source (Time of Day, LTC, Tentacle Sync, MIDI Timecode and more).

Step 7: Save Your Project

Choose File → Save Project (⌘S). The project (.wtx) stores routing, tracks, files, metadata and settings so you can reopen the whole setup later.

Step 8: Record

Press Record (⌘⌥R) to start a take and Stop (⌘⌥S) to end it. False Start (⌘⌥F) marks a take as a false start. After each take WildTrax updates the sound report and advances the metadata you set to increment.

First-Time Setup Checklist

The Workspace

Main Window

Panel Frames

The workspace is made of frames, each holding one or more panels as tabs.

Status Bar

Keyboard Navigation

Projects

When you launch WildTrax, the Project Manager lets you start a new project, open one or pick a recent one. The window title shows "Edited" when there are unsaved changes, and WildTrax asks before closing a project with changes. If WildTrax quits unexpectedly, it offers your unsaved changes back the next time it opens.

Preferences

Open Preferences with ⌘,. The tabs are General, Time, Device, Sound Report, Account, Session and Guest Mode.

General

Time

The Time tab sets how WildTrax counts and stamps timecode.

Device

Sample rate and buffer size can't change while recording. If your device disconnects, WildTrax tells you, falls back to another device, and switches back when yours returns (never mid-take).

Sound Report

Account

Your login, plan and devices. See Account and License.

Session

Remote control: the session server that control surfaces, the WildTrax iOS app, Stream Deck and other tools connect to. See Remote Control.

Guest Mode

What Guest Mode locks, an optional exit PIN, and whether WildTrax starts in Guest Mode. See Guest Mode.

Panels Overview

Each panel handles one part of the workflow, and all of them work while recording. To arrange them, see Panel Frames in Main Window.

Panels in WildTrax 2027

The Add Panel menu groups the panels the same way as this table.

Toolkit ▸ Python tools Your own panel scripts (see Python Scripting)

The Script Editor (Window → Toolkit) and the Log (Help → Show Log) open as panels too, but aren't in the Add Panel menu.

The Input Matrix and Output Matrix from WildTrax 2026 are now one panel, the I/O Matrix. Hover any toolbar button to see what it does.

Recording

Audio goes through four stages on its way to disk, each set in its own panel:

  1. Inputs on your audio device are patched to tracks in the I/O Matrix.
  2. Tracks are named, armed, monitored and metered in the Tracks panel.
  3. Files, set in the Files panel, each record a chosen set of tracks: one track makes a mono file, several make a poly file.
  4. Destinations are the folders files are written to. Add more than one to record to several drives at once.

Tracks Panel

The Tracks panel is the heart of the session: every track's arm state, name, monitoring and level in one view, whether you are recording two mics or a hundred tracks.

Track Rows

Each track can show these elements. Choose which appear, and in what order, with Track Layout.

Toolbar

Control What it does
Buffer Indicator How full the recording buffer is: green, red while recording. Click to switch between a full-capacity view and a pre-roll view, where amber shows headroom in use. A ! badge means samples were dropped this take.
Track count Set the number of tracks
Add Track Add a new track
Remove Track Remove the selected track(s)
List / Grid Switch between rows and a grid of tiles
Meter Orientation Horizontal or vertical meters
Track Layout Show, hide and reorder track elements; name and icon size; name over the meter
Meter Settings Meter scale: thresholds and colors in dBFS, floor and label step, with a live preview
Buffer Settings Pre-roll (audio kept from before Record) and post-roll
Monitor All Tracks Monitor every armed track

Tips

Metadata Panel

The Metadata panel holds what identifies each take. It's written into every recorded file (iXML and BWF) and into your sound reports, so post can find and sort everything.

Fields

Increment and Reset

Take, Slate and Roll each have two options:

Use Reset to Default to return a field to its starting value.

Markers

Click New Marker (⌘⇧M) to drop a timecode marker into the note while recording, to flag a moment for post. Markers are also written into the file's iXML sync point list.

Note Bank

The Note Bank stores notes you use often. Open it from the toolbar to add, edit or insert notes.

Toolbar

Control What it does
New Marker Add a marker at the current timecode (⌘⇧M)
Manage Note Bank Add, edit and insert saved notes
Horizontal/Vertical Split Switch the panel between a horizontal and a vertical layout

Tips

Files Panel

The Files panel decides where recordings go and what they're called. In WildTrax 2027 the folders you record to are called Destinations.

Destinations and Files

  1. Click Add Destination and choose a folder. Add more destinations to record to several drives at once (a mirror).
  2. In a destination, click Add File. A file is one recording output: choose which tracks it contains.
  3. Set each file's format and bit depth (16-bit, 24-bit or 32-bit float). WAV files switch to RF64 automatically past 4 GB.
  4. Name the file with tokens (below).

Filename Tokens

Click the { } button in a filename field to insert a token at the cursor, or type it.

Token Becomes
{project} {scene} {slate} {take} {roll} {note} The metadata fields
{track} {input} Track name, input name
{tc} {fps} Start timecode and frame rate
{date} {time} Date and time
{year} {month} {day} {hour} {minute} {second} Parts of the date and time

Date, time and timecode tokens all use the first sample of the take, so every file in a take matches, and matches the timecode written inside it.

Example: {scene}_{take}_{tc}.

Files Toolbar

Control What it does
Add / Remove Destination Add a recording folder, or remove the selected one
Add File / Remove Files Add a file to a destination, or select files to remove
Expand Tokens Show file names with tokens filled in
Auto-Arm Arm tracks automatically when they're assigned to a file
File Size/Duration Limits Split recordings by file size, duration or both

Tips

I/O Matrix Panel

The I/O Matrix routes audio in and out of WildTrax. Switch between its Input and Output tabs at the top of the panel.

Input

The grid connects your device's inputs to WildTrax tracks. Click a cell to patch that input to that track; click again to remove it.

Output

The Output tab routes WildTrax's monitoring and playback to your output device's channels: headphones, speakers, IFB or transmitters.

Playback sources (the Player, Playlist, Sample Pad, the LTC Generator and the Signal Generator's live output) each choose their outputs from their own routing grid.

Virtual Inputs and Outputs

You can set more matrix channels than your device has, to patch ahead of time. These virtual channels are marked ◌ and carry no audio until a device with enough channels is connected.

Toolbar

Control What it does
Open Device Settings Open Preferences → Device
Hover shortcuts Show the matrix's mouse and keyboard shortcuts (Input tab)
Name tracks after their input Copy each input's name to the tracks it feeds (Input tab; locked while recording)
Reset all input / output names Clear the names you've typed. Dante names, if any, come back
Show Dante channel names Show the names read from your Dante device (Dante devices only)
Re-scan for Dante channel names Read the names from the Dante network again (Dante devices only)
Device and channel count Choose the device, and how many channels the matrix shows. Channels beyond the device's own are virtual

Tips

Snapshots Panel

Snapshots save a chosen set of settings under a name, so you can bring them back later: a scene setup, a different cast's track names, a second unit.

Store

Click Store and tick exactly which settings go into the snapshot. Snapshots can include:

Storing over an existing snapshot replaces it, starting from the settings it already had ticked.

Recall

Select a snapshot and click Recall. WildTrax shows what will change first, then applies it exactly as if you had made the changes by hand. Snapshots can't be recalled while recording.

Recall Safe

Recall Safe picks settings that no recall will ever change, whatever a snapshot contains.

Managing Snapshots

Double-click a snapshot to rename it. Select one and click the trash button to delete it.

Review and Delivery

Library Panel

The Library is new in WildTrax 2027: one place to browse, search, review and fix your recordings, from this project or any folder or card.

Locations

The sidebar lists where your files are:

Right-click a location for more options.

⚠️ Erase Card… permanently deletes everything on an SD card. Right-click the card and choose “Erase Card…”

WildTrax shows what's on it and asks you to confirm.

File List

Inspector

Select a file to see its details on the right:

Several Files at Once

Select several files to circle them all, set a note for all of them, or choose Batch Edit to change Project, Scene, Take, Roll, Slate or Note across the selection. Batch Edit shows what the files share, and what will change, before you apply it. Files that can't hold metadata (such as MP3) are left alone.

Right-Click Menu

Toolbar

Control What it does
Show locations Show or hide the sidebar
Show inspector Show or hide the file details on the right
Show circled takes only Filter the list to circled takes
Show audio files only when browsing Hide other files while browsing a folder
Refresh Re-read the current location
Export visible files as CSV Save the list as it's shown

Player Panel

The Player reviews one file at a time: waveform, transport, and a mixer with a strip per channel. It follows the file selected in the Library, and the Library's preview can send a file to the full Player.

Waveform

The waveform shows the whole file with timecode. Show it summed or per channel. Click to move the playhead.

Mixer

Each channel has:

Show the channels as rows or as vertical columns.

Transport

Play / Pause (space bar), Stop, back and forward 5 seconds, and Loop. Choose where playback goes with the routing grid.

Mixer layout: rows or columns Show the channel strips as rows or vertical columns
Output routing Choose where playback goes
Reveal in Finder Show the file in Finder

Sound Report Panel

The Sound Report panel builds your report for post from the files themselves. Every take appears automatically, with its metadata, timecode and file details, ready to edit and export.

Grouping

Group by File, Take, Scene, Roll, Slate, Project, Folder or Circled. Takes are grouped using the take ID in each file's iXML, so files from one take stay together.

Editing

Click any cell to edit scene, slate, take, notes and the other fields. Changes are written back into the files' metadata. MP3 files appear as read-only rows.

Exporting

Click Export to save the report as CSV or PDF. Turn on Auto-save to write the report after every take; in Preferences → Sound Report you can also save a PDF alongside the CSV each time.

PDF

The PDF preview shows the pages live and lets you set:

Track columns match the CSV, and spill onto extra pages when they don't fit.

Tips

Timeline Panel

The Timeline is new in WildTrax 2027. It's where files are assembled into new ones: combining isos from several recorders into one poly file, stitching backup segments together, splitting a poly file, or pulling out an exact range. Your source files are never modified.

Getting Files In

Arranging

The Timeline runs on absolute time: a clip recorded at 10:00:00:00 sits at ten hours.

Keyboard

Keys Action
← → Nudge the selected clips (Shift for ten times further)
↑ ↓ Move the selected clips to the track above or below
Delete Remove the selected clips
⌘= / ⌘− Zoom in / out
Shift-Z Zoom to fit
S Snapping on or off

A nudge moves by a step that follows the zoom, so it's always a visible amount.

Exporting

The range band on the ruler sets what's exported. It follows the content automatically, or drag its handles to set it by hand.

Click Export to open the export window:

Split

Split turns a poly file into separate files, one per channel.

Spectrum Analyzer Panel

The Spectrum Analyzer shows the frequency content of a signal from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Use it to find hum, RF interference, rumble and problem frequencies.

Sources

Choose what to analyze with the buttons at the bottom:

Pick the channel from the menu beside the source buttons. Interpolate smooths the trace.

The Player's Show in Spectrum Analyzer button opens the analyzer on the Player source.

Using It

The analyzer runs separately from recording and doesn't affect it.

Playback

Sample Pad Panel

The Sample Pad plays short audio clips on demand: cues, tones, sound effects or reference files, without another app.

Pads

Each pad holds one audio file. Click a pad to play it; several pads can play at once.

Each pad has:

Right-click a pad to rename or delete it, or set its color, fade durations, channel routing and trigger mode. Pads can also be fired by remote control (OSC or HTTP); there's no keyboard or MIDI triggering.

Loading Samples

Click Add a New Sample to choose WAV files, or drag WAV files onto the panel; dropping onto a pad puts the new pad in that position. Pads play WAV files only.

Toolbar

Control What it does
Add a New Sample Add pads from WAV files. Shows the limit when your plan's pad count is reached
Edit Samples Edit or remove pads

Tips

Playlist Panel

The Playlist queues and plays files from inside your session.

Entries

Each entry shows the file name, duration, and scene and take from its metadata. Add WAV files with Add or by dragging them in. Drag entries to reorder them.

Playback

Inspector

The inspector edits the selected entry: title, file, color and routing mode (Auto, Stereo, Mono Left, Mono Right, Mono Center or Custom). Click Matrix… to see the entry's channel routing in its own window; edit it there in Custom mode.

It sits beside the list, or below it with the toolbar's layout switch. Drag the divider to resize it. Close it with the × in its header, and click the Inspector tab to bring it back.

Toolbar

Control What it does
Add Add an entry
Play / Stop Play the playlist, or stop it
Inspector beside / below the list Put the inspector to the right of the list or under it
Delete Remove the checked entries (the files stay on disk)
Loop Repeat the playlist

Tips

Session Tools

Toolkit

The Toolkit holds utilities for preparing, checking and fixing audio.

Clip & Peak Detector

Scans WAV and RF64 files for clipping and peaks, channel by channel: the peak and RMS level of each channel, how many clips and where the first one is. Export the results as CSV. Open it from the Toolkit, or right-click files in the Library.

Signal Generator

Two modes:

Level is the peak level for tones and the RMS level for noise, in dBFS.

LTC Generator

Sends SMPTE timecode out of the outputs you choose, to jam or feed cameras and recorders.

The rate follows your project (50, 59.94 and 60 fps projects send 25, 29.97 and 30 fps LTC). It keeps running when its window closes; LTC out in the status bar shows it.

Don't use Follow WildTrax while WildTrax is reading LTC from the generator's own output; use Start From for that.

Python Tools

Python scripts appear in the Toolkit too. WildTrax includes examples:

See Python Scripting to write your own.

Tile Icons

Right-click a tile to choose its icon: a built-in icon, an emoji or your own image.

Python Scripting

WildTrax includes Python, so you can write tools that read and control the app: calculators, utilities, custom windows and menu commands.

Script Editor

Open the Script Editor from Window → Toolkit → Script Editor to write, open and run scripts. Output and errors appear in its log.

Your Scripts

Scripts you save in your scripts folder (~/Library/Application Support/WildTrax 2027/scripts) appear in the Toolkit as tiles and in the Toolkit menu.

Examples

The Python tools in the Toolkit are examples. Open one in the Script Editor to see how it's built. Saving it makes your own copy, which you can change freely.

Reference

The Python scripting reference lists everything scripts can read and control.

Remote Control

WildTrax can be controlled from other devices on your network: the WildTrax iOS app, Stream Deck, Bitfocus Companion, TouchOSC and your own tools.

Turning It On

Open Preferences → Session and enable the session server. It offers three services:

Turn on Use fixed ports to keep the same ports between launches; each service needs its own port.

Clients and Permissions

Connected devices appear under Active Clients. For each one you can:

Auto-Join lets known devices reconnect without asking again.

WildTrax iOS App

The WildTrax iOS app connects to the session server for remote recording control, metadata and monitoring.

Stream Deck and Companion

WildTrax has a Stream Deck plugin and a Bitfocus Companion module, with keys for Record, Stop and False Start, metadata and more. Recording is never a toggle: Record, Stop and False Start are separate keys, and False Start asks for a second press to confirm.

Subscribers can download both from wildtrax.io/downloads. To build your own tools, see the OSC reference and the HTTP API reference.

Guest Mode

Guest Mode locks parts of WildTrax so someone else can run the session without changing your setup: a second operator, a client or a trainee.

Setting It Up

In Preferences → Guest Mode, tick what's locked:

Optionally set an Exit PIN, required to leave Guest Mode. Turn on Start in Guest Mode to open WildTrax already locked.

Using It

Locked panels stay visible but can't be changed. Recording, transport and everything not ticked keep working.

Troubleshooting and FAQ

If something doesn't go as expected, these are the common fixes.

WildTrax doesn't see my audio interface

No level on the meters

WildTrax switched to another device

If your device disconnects, WildTrax falls back to another one and tells you. It switches back by itself when your device returns, never in the middle of a take.

Files aren't being written

Metadata is missing from my files

Timecode isn't locking

WildTrax isn't responding

Reporting a problem
