Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Multi
This audio compressor plugin offers multi-band processing for precise control over different frequency ranges. It features a modern interface with stereo meters and adjustable parameters for each of the four bands, ideal for detailed audio mixing.
- Multi-band compression with 4 bands
- Adjustable threshold, ratio, gain, attack, release per band
- Automatic gain (make-up) mode
- Frequency domain splitting with crossover controls
- Gate and peak lights for each band
- Mute specific frequency bands

This is a AUv3 compatible audio compressor which can be used as plugin with your favourite DAW such as Cubasis, Meteor, Auria or GarageBand. It supports a modern graphical interface and presets with stereo meters for monitoring signal levels. An audio compressor is used to reduce the volume levels of loud sounds above a specified threshold and amplify quiet parts thus reducing an audio signals dynamic range. The dynamic volume changes of a recording means that the overall level of the compressed recording can be increased inside your mix. The recording will also sit inside your whole mix much more easily. There are times when you need to apply different amounts of compression to specific frequency bands such as when compressing drums. In these cases you can isolate say the kick drum and the snare, providing a boost to the kick, while suppressing the snare. This multi band compressor allows you to define 4 bands, with separate threshold, ratio, gain, attack and release times for each. We also provide an automatic gain mode, often referred to as make-up which automatically boosts the signal as you decrease the threshold. Once the compressor gate is triggered simply adjust the gain to suite. This effect effectively splits the frequency domain into 4 bands using 3 crossover controls. We provide gate and peak lights for all four compression bands as well as allowing you to mute specific bands which might be useful if you are wanting to remove a frequency range from the mix. This is one of a suite of AUv3 compatible plugins which will also soon be available from 4Pockets.

Oscilloscope is a professional audio analysis app that transforms your iPhone or iPad into a comprehensive audio measurement system. Whether you are a sound engineer, musician, podcaster, or audio enthusiast, Oscilloscope provides the tools you need to visualize and analyze sound with precision. REAL-TIME OSCILLOSCOPE View up to 3 seconds of audio waveform history with crystal-clear visualization. Pause playback to examine specific moments, scroll horizontally to navigate through captured audio, and pinch to zoom for detailed inspection. Support for stereo, left-only, right-only, and mono summed display modes gives you complete control over your analysis. SPECTROGRAM ANALYSIS Visualize frequency content over time with a professional-grade spectrogram display. The app features a perceptually-accurate Bark frequency scale that mirrors how human hearing perceives sound, making it ideal for music mixing, room acoustics analysis, and identifying problematic frequencies. STEREO CORRELATION METER The XY display mode provides a Lissajous-style visualization of stereo phase correlation. Instantly identify phase issues, mono compatibility problems, and stereo width characteristics. The integrated correlation meter shows real-time phase relationship between left and right channels. FREQUENCY DETECTION Identify frequencies with precision using advanced pitch detection. The app displays detected frequency in Hz, the corresponding musical note name, MIDI note number, and cents deviation from perfect pitch. Perfect for tuning instruments, analyzing vocals, or identifying resonant frequencies. TRIGGER MODES Choose between level-based triggering with adjustable threshold for stable waveform display, or frequency-based triggering for pitch-locked visualization. Lookahead compensation ensures you never miss the transient you are looking for.
