Mutal Toolkit is the production sound mixer's daily companion — one app for everything you need on set. Frequency coordination, script reading, sound triggers, audio playback, file slicing, metadata — all connected in a single workspace, organized by project. RF — FREQUENCY COORDINATION Build a clean frequency plan for your entire wireless fleet in seconds. The engine scans for local broadcast transmitters, calculates intermodulation products and returns the best available frequencies — drawing from a comprehensive database of wireless devices. Share your RF setup with your team in PRO: invite collaborators by email or SMS from the project manager; transmitters, frequencies and shooting locations stay in sync across devices, with view-only or edit permissions.
