HouseCurve is a multi-tool for audio systems. Use it for room correction, adjusting equalizers, setting subwoofer phase, choosing crossovers and more. Features: * Sine sweep and real time pink noise measurements * Sweep measurements can be averaged as they are collected * Alternatively, use real time tool to collect moving mic measurements (MMM) * Compare measurements to a selected target curve * Create and edit target curves * Generate room correction filters (PEQ or FIR) * Filters compatible with a variety of systems including Roon, Volumio, CamillaDSP, EqualizerAPO, miniDSP and Crestron DM NAX * Display magnitude, phase and group delay * Use with built-in or external microphones * Connect with AirPlay, Bluetooth, headphone jack (analog) or use external stimulus HouseCurve measures in-room frequency response by listening to your audio system play a sine sweep. Measurements are displayed on top of a target curve, making it easy to see where adjustment is needed. Multiple measurements can be averaged to fully capture how the system sounds in the listening area. With small changes and repeat measurements, you can manually tune your system to the target curve. If your audio system has a parametric equalizer or convolution engine, HouseCurve can automatically generate filter settings to match the target curve. HouseCurve can help with home and car audio system tuning, from system equalization and room correction to subwoofer time alignment and speaker placement. Visit housecurve.com for more information on how HouseCurve works and how to use it. HouseCurve will produce acceptable results with the built in iPhone/iPad microphone. Using calibrated external microphones will provide higher accuracy. The free version of HouseCurve can measure your audio system and display a magnitude plot (aka "frequency response"). Additional features, such as room correction filter generation, advanced measurement tools and target curve editing can be obtained via in-app purchases.

About

.dynamics MOVE

Features
Read full description

.dynamics MOVE is the mobile extension of PK Sound’s powerful .dynamics control software, designed to give users real-time access to robotic system optimization from phones and tablets. Offering remote, real-time control of PK Sound’s patented Multi-Axis Robotics, .dynamics MOVE allows engineers to walk the venue, listen critically, and mechanically adjust the line array system's vertical and horizontal coverage. By prioritizing mechanical optimization first, users can achieve more consistent coverage, improved intelligibility, and greater impact across complex spaces. In addition to robotic control, .dynamics MOVE enables control of the DSP built into each loudspeaker module for fine-tuning once coverage is mechanically optimized. The app integrates seamlessly with the desktop version for a flexible workflow that adapts to any stage of deployment - from load-in and soundcheck to showtime.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: .dynamics MOVE at none against HouseCurve's 2. .dynamics MOVE also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.6). HouseCurve's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 3 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
