Museum on your palm. The traditional Japanese art, Ukiyo-e, which has been received well on Apple TV, is now enjoyable with your iPhone or iPad! It also has the clock function, so you can be aware of the time with relaxing classical music. Contains “The Fifty-three Stations of The Tokaido Road” by Utagawa Hiroshige and “Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji” by Katsushika Hokusai and “Beautiful Women“ by Kitagawa Utamaro and Ukiyo-e of Sharaku. Randomly played music is as follows: Erik Alfred Leslie Satie:Gymnopédies Claude Debussy:Préludes, Book1 10. La cathédrale Claude Debussy:Suite Bergamasque 3. Clair de Lune Franz Liszt:Consolations No.3 in D-flat major It also corresponds to Widget. Please enjoy the beauty of Ukiyo-e with the widget, too. The wonderful Japanese art, Ukiyo-e is now also available as on your iMessage Sticker, too. You can enjoy the Ukiyo-e paintings on the Apple Watch. More Ukiyo-e prints will be added for free in later updates. Our development is encouraged by stars from you and we appreciate for all your support.
Audio SA
This app analyzes audio waveforms to create visual voiceprints as TFFT images. It offers extensive customization for FFT analysis, including adjustable ranges, sizes, scales, and window functions. A simple waveform generator is also included for learning purposes.
- TFFT voiceprint image generation
- High-resolution image export
- Customizable FFT analysis settings
- Adjustable audio waveform analysis range
- Simple waveform generator (sine, square, noise)
- Multiple FFT sizes and window functions

"Audio SA" is a spectrum analyzer that can capture voiceprints as TFFT images. The created TFFT image can be exported as a high resolution image. (Image size example iPhoneSE3: 4096×4096, iPhoneX: 6144×6144) If you just want to try creating a voiceprint, you don't need to worry about the settings. Just record your voice and run the TFFT to see the voiceprint. "Audio SA" can also be used for FFT-related learning. You can also check changes in important characteristics such as FFT frequency resolution and dynamic range while switching the FFT size and window function. As an additional function, we have implemented a simple waveform generator, so please try it when learning. The simple waveform generator can generate sine waves, square waves, Gaussian white noise, and their combinations. When using TFFT images for machine learning, etc., it will be necessary to give sufficient consideration to the settings. "Audio SA" allows you to set the audio waveform analysis range, FFT size, power spectrum scale, window function, and drawing color. The analysis range of the audio waveform is set by scaling and moving the audio waveform. The displayed range becomes the analysis range. Tap the play button to play only the analysis range, which is convenient for checking. FFT size can be selected from 256,512,1024,2048,4096,8192,16384,32768. (However, you can select from 256, 512, 1024, 2048, and 4096 during recording and playback.) The power spectrum scale can be selected from Linear scale, Log scale, and Mel scale. For Mel scale, you can set the break frequency. The mel scale is close to a linear scale up to the break frequency and close to a log scale after the break frequency. 700Hz, which is the most commonly used frequency, is set as the default value. The window function can be selected from Blackman, Hamming, Hann, Rectangular. It is recommended to choose Blackman when wide dynamic range is required and Hamming when high frequency resolution is required. Roughly speaking, Hann is a trait between Blackman and Hamming. For Rectangular, no special window function is multiplied during FFT transform. The audio data cut out from the audio waveform for the FFT size is used as it is. In addition, the lower limit of the dynamic range when drawing TFFT images can also be set. It's easy to set up, just swipe up and down on the FFT image. The part displayed as the FFT image is drawn as it is in the TFFT image. "Audio SA" consumes tickets to record audio. Tickets can be earned by watching ads. However, if you purchase "Remove Ads" as an in-app purchase, you will be able to record without a ticket. [details] https://app.brain-workout.org/spectrumanalyzer-e/

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Audio SA at Free against Ukiyo's $1.99. Ukiyo's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On review sentiment and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
