Mixing Software

[Learn2Dive]

Was wondering what gas mixing software some of you use to blend your mixes? Is there something that makes you prefer your choice over others?

Appreciate the feedback in advance.

I use Decom. It is free and easy to use.

I have 2...DSAT and GMP both are good.

Greg McLaughlin from Jack's Diving Locker in Kona, Hawaii, came up with a great web based application that runs on his IPhone to perform Partial Pressure Blending Calculations. It works well if you use either Firefox or Safari as your browser. As it was originally designed as an Apple application, its no suprise that it doesn't work well on Internet Explorer. Apple liked it so much they put a link to it on the IPhone webpage.

You can read more about the application itself at this webpage.

Or download the Gas Charts from Advanced Diver Magazine online here:

Or get all of the formulas out of Oxygen Hackers Guide and put them into an excel spread sheet and away you go.
You can generate your own tables or a calculator once you have the formulas.
It is all simple math plus a little bit of fudge factoring.

Am I missing something here? Who else blends with just a calculator and the software between their ears?

Several Deco programs include a gas mixing program as part of the package. V-Planner works great, however I prefer GMP.

I just finished reading the TDI Gas Blending textbook. Very interesting reading material to read as I sit waiting during jury duty.
