Running sound at your church or small events without formal training? SoundCoach is the assistant standing next to you at the console. MEASURE IN REAL TIME • Decibel meter (dB SPL) with session history and color zones, so you know when volume is safe and comfortable. • Full-screen 31-band spectrum analyzer (RTA): see exactly which frequencies dominate your mix. • Feedback detector: an alert tells you which frequency is taking off before the squeal ruins the moment. DESCRIBE THE PROBLEM IN YOUR OWN WORDS "Sounds boxy", "too metallic", "can't understand the vocals", "it booms". No technical vocabulary needed — pick tags or write it the way you hear it. GET CONCRETE ADJUSTMENTS AI combines your description with the real analysis of your room's sound and gives you prioritized steps: which frequency to EQ (with exact gain and Q), how to set the compressor or gate, and what to do with effects. Every adjustment comes with a plain-language explanation of what will improve. PRIVACY FIRST Audio never leaves your phone. All sound processing happens on your device; only numeric analysis data goes to the cloud. No sign-up, no accounts, no personal data. BUILT FOR VOLUNTEERS SoundCoach was born for sound operators at churches and small events: people who serve with heart and learn on the go. Measurements are approximate (iPhone mics aren't calibrated instruments), but more than enough to make better mixing decisions. The free tier includes the meter, the spectrum analyzer, the feedback detector, and a limited number of AI recommendations per month.
