Studio Acoustic Planner turns a scan of your room into an acoustic treatment plan you can actually build. Walk around once with an iPhone Pro and the LiDAR maps every wall, the ceiling and your desk. No LiDAR? Type the room size or draw the floor plan. Either way the app computes your room's acoustics and hands you a plan in order of what matters most. WHAT YOU GET, FREE • The scan, and your room in 3D • The acoustic summary: decay time, proportions, and the room modes most likely to be audible as bass peaks and dips, with note names • Placement, in full: where to sit, monitor spacing, ear height, toe-in, and the subwoofer position chosen by physics • Two guided ear tests that find your listening spot and speaker positions by listening, no measurement microphone needed • Unlimited rooms THE FULL ROADMAP (one-time unlock per room, or Studio Pro) • Every treatment action for your room: first-reflection panels, corner bass traps, ceiling cloud, rear wall, each with exact placement, the size to build, and a materials list • Build specs and how-tos for each panel • REW import: bring in a measurement sweep and see predicted against measured. The plan sharpens against the real room, and a second sweep shows before and after • Exports: PDF, the materials list as a note, and a handoff to your AI PLACEMENT FIRST, PANELS SECOND Most of the improvement in a small room costs nothing: it's where you sit and where the speakers go. The plan puts those actions first and lets you check each one off. Panels come after, sized and placed for your walls, not a generic diagram. MADE FOR HOME STUDIOS Bedroom studios, mixing rooms, podcast rooms, practice spaces. Yamaha, Genelec, KRK, Adam, Neumann, Focal, Kali, PreSonus and 30 more monitor brands in the catalog, with true cabinet dimensions. PRIVACY Everything stays on your iPhone. No account, no analytics, no tracking. The camera and LiDAR are used for the scan only; nothing is recorded or uploaded. Studio Pro is an auto-renewing subscription (monthly or yearly) that unlocks every room while active. Rooms planned under Pro stay unlocked if it ends. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and can be managed in your App Store account settings.
