What is an RWF file

RWF files mostly belong to Rational Acoustics Smaart.

The RWF file is a raw waveform data file that stores unprocessed signal data. It is mainly created by software from Rational Acoustics Smaart for audio and signal analysis.

  • Purpose: To record unaltered waveform data for accurate signal evaluation.

  • Software: Typically opened by vendor-specific applications such as Rational Acoustics Smaart. There is also an association with Rotor-Gene Q series data analysis from RawFlow.
