SoundMeter X vs Formula Canvas

SoundMeter X turns your iPhone or iPad into a handheld data-logging sound level meter (SLM), data-logging noise dosimeter, stereo signal generator, multi-channel data recorder, and real-time whole or 1/3 octave band spectrum analyzer (subscription or perpetual license required for most features--14-day free trial available). Input signals can be acquired from any available audio input path. Sensitivity calibration can also be performed for any audio input device and/or input channel. Direct hardware support (automatic sensitivity calibration, based on factory-defined values) for The Modal Shop’s 2-channel 485B39 USB-ICP interface and miniDSP’s UMIK-1, UMIK-2, and EARS microphones. In addition to real-time sound level measurements, SoundMeter can stream raw sound data to audio files, and store acquired sound level data, including date, time, and location, in CSV or TXT (tab-delimited) files, MAT-files, or high-resolution PDF images for later retrieval from your device. SoundMeter may be downloaded for free from the App Store. Additional tools and features are offered via in-app purchase. The SoundMeter Pro subscription includes: - User-defined custom metadata in saved audio and data files - Level MeterLp, Leq, Lx sound levels -- Standard Flat, A, C frequency weighting -- Standard Fast, Slow, Impulse time weighting -- Data logging. Data can be logged as often as every 0.1 seconds for up to 8 hours, every second for up to 72 hours, or every 10 seconds for up to two weeks. -- Event notifications - Max Levels Meter -- Traffic-light-style meters make it easy to monitor 2 separate sound level thresholds in 2 independent user-defined frequency bands. -- Define lower (warning) and higher (limit) sound level thresholds for overall (full audio band) levels as well as for individual octave frequency bands. -- Store user-defined thresholds in files for later recall. - Noise Dosimeter -- 8-hour Noise Dose, Projected Dose, TWA calculations -- Criterion Levels: 80, 85, 90 dB -- Exchange Rates: 3, 4, 5 dB -- Data logging. Data can be logged as often as every 0.1 seconds for up to 8 hours, every second for up to 72 hours, or every 10 seconds for up to two weeks. - Real-time Octave Spectrum Analyzer (RTA) -- Lp, Leq, Lx sound levels -- Supports whole or 1/3-octave frequency bands -- Standard Flat, A, C frequency weighting -- Standard Fast, Slow, Impulse time weighting -- NC, RNC, and NR references curves, NC, SIL, and NR values -- Data logging. Data can be logged as often as every 0.1 seconds for up to 8 hours, every second for up to 72 hours, or every 10 seconds for up to two weeks. - Multi-channel Data Recorder -- Supports up to 8 channels -- Live monitoring of recorded data -- Metadata (including calibrated sensitivity) embedded in audio file (AIF, CAF, WAV), optionally saved in separate data file - Stereo Signal Generator -- Left and right outputs assigned to arbitrary hardware output channels -- Random and pseudorandom (periodic) noise sequences with white or pink spectrum -- Linear and logarithmic frequency sweeps -- Dual periodic waveforms with arbitrary frequency and phase difference - MultiTool -- Powerful data monitoring and project management (Add 2-6 subtools, depending on screen size, and save configurations for easy recall at a later time.) The SignalScope X Pro Tool Set subscription can be shared between SoundMeter X and SignalScope X. It unlocks all tools and features of the SoundMeter Pro subscription in SoundMeter X and all tools and features of the Pro Tool Set subscription in SignalScope X (iCloud login required).

Formula Canvas is a native math workspace for writing formulas, building study notes, and preparing clean LaTeX without fighting plain text syntax. Create expressions visually with a structured math keyboard. Add fractions, radicals, superscripts, subscripts, sums, products, integrals, scalable brackets, matrices, equation systems, accents, Greek letters, arrows, relations, set symbols, and common functions. Tap to place the cursor, move through formula structures with direction controls, and undo or redo edits as you work. The live LaTeX preview keeps your source visible while you edit. Copy LaTeX instantly, or unlock advanced export and sharing with Formula Canvas Pro. Formula Canvas also includes a document workspace for longer notes. Combine text blocks, formula blocks, and handwriting blocks in the same document, then keep everything organized in a local document list. Use the drawing canvas for quick geometry sketches, annotations, diagrams, and handwritten ideas. Apple Pencil is supported through PencilKit, and built-in shape stamps help you insert lines, arrows, rectangles, and ellipses quickly. Built fully native with Swift and Core Graphics, Formula Canvas is designed for responsive formula editing on iPhone and iPad. Key features: - Visual WYSIWYG math formula editing - Structured keyboard for symbols, functions, calculus, matrices, and formulas - Fractions, roots, scripts, limits, integrals, matrices, delimiters, and accents - Tap-based cursor placement and structural navigation controls - Live LaTeX preview with copy support - Multi-block documents with text, formulas, and handwriting - PencilKit drawing with Apple Pencil support - Shape stamps for lines, arrows, rectangles, and ellipses - Local document storage on your device - Optional one-time Pro upgrade, no subscription Formula Canvas Pro unlocks unlimited formula documents, advanced LaTeX export and sharing, and handwriting and drawing tools.
