Sound is decomposed into two dimensions and displayed continuously over time. The premium version offers a new style of audio recorder/player. This app can be used for analysis of Human voice, Environmental sound, Sound of animals, musics, etc. The specifications are as follows. Sampling rate = 10000 to 44100 Hz Display maximum frequency = 1000 to 22050 Hz Display time range = 2 to 10 seconds Frequency axis display resolution = 100 Time axis display resolution = 10 / sec From version 1.1, recording, playback, import, and export functions based on sound and voiceprints can be used by in-app purchase. In this case, banners will not be displayed. The premium version allows recording, playback, import of external sound source files, and external output. ・Record under the following conditions Sampling frequency = 10000~44100Hz ・Display audio analysis results under the following conditions (audio is played in sync with the analysis screen) Maximum display frequency (high-pitched display frequency limit) = 1000~22050Hz (half the sampling frequency or less) Display time range (time that can be displayed on one screen) = 2~10 seconds Frequency display resolution (frequency axis: number of data displayed on the vertical axis) = 200 points Time axis display resolution (time axis: display interval (pitch) on the horizontal axis) = 50~200ms (10~200 points) ・Importing external audio source files Imports 16-bit linear PCM mono audio sources. (In the case of stereo, only 1ch is imported.) ・External output Outputs as 16-bit linear PCM mono. *To input and output data to iCloud Drive, you must enable iCloud Drive in System Preferences. *******

Read full description

"Wavelet Voice Sonogram" is a sound spectrogram app that performs time-frequency analysis of acoustic signals. A spectrogram is a graph displaying the results of a sound frequency spectrum analysis, with time on the horizontal axis, frequency on the vertical axis, and signal strength represented by colors. This app can perform acoustic analysis and display the spectrograms by using three time-frequency analysis methods, Wavelet analysis, Octave Band analysis, and FFT analysis. It can also record sounds from iPhone's built-in microphone. While playing back a recording, you can search for the desired sound and analyze it. "Wavelet Voice Sonogram" makes it easy to analyze the acoustics of speech, instrumental sounds, noise, and more. It can also be used to learn the basics of speech analysis. Features: - Acoustic analysis can be performed using PCM data recorded with the iPhone's built-in microphone. It is possible to analyze 5 seconds of sound data backward from a user-specified point in time. - Three types of acoustic analysis, FFT analysis, octave band analysis and wavelet analysis, can be performed simultaneously. - PCM sound recording and playback is possible up to about 180 seconds, and the audio waveform graph and FFT analysis graph are displayed. While playing back sound, you can search for sound at any point in time. - Zoom in on a specific 10 seconds of PCM data and play back the sound. Used to find a specific sound at the point in time you want to analyze. - The spectrogram analysis result and time axis waveform can be contrasted and played back. Specifications: - Sampling frequency: 48 kHz - PCM recording time: approx. 180 seconds max. - Sound zoom function (10-Sec): Zooms in on any 10 seconds of PCM data and plays back the sound. - 3 types of acoustic analysis function (Analysis): About 5 seconds (Analysis points can be specified using the Time position slider.) -- FFT analysis (FFT): FFT 2048 points -- Octave band analysis (OCT): 1/48 octave band -- Wavelet analysis (DWT): Gabor Wavelet - Sound recording and playback, sound waveform and FFT graph display (Main): PCM graph, 10sec zoom graph, FFT graph. - Time position slider: Points to the cursor position on PCM graph. - Spectrogram display (FFT / OCT / DWT): 5 sec PCM graph and spectrogram analysis graph (vertical axis - time [0 - 5.0 sec], horizontal axis - frequency [100Hz - 8kHz]) - Snapshot (Snap): Save the analysis image in "Photos". Notes: - The acoustic analysis time varies significantly depending on the performance of your iPhone (product generation). It may take about 5 to 20 seconds. - Wireless (Bluetooth) headphones and headsets are not supported. - The first time the app accesses the built-in microphone and Photos after installation, the iOS system will ask you for permission to access them. If you have not enabled this setting, the application will not be able to access them due to iOS system privacy restrictions. Please enable the access permission in the iOS setting "Settings > Privacy & Security > Photos or Microphone". Please visit our iOS app support page for more information on this app.
