AVCommander vs MeterWorks Sound Meter

Turn your iPhone or iPad into a professional AV control center. Communicate directly with any equipment via TCP, UDP, HTTP, Telnet, WebSocket, and JSON-RPC protocols. Build your own custom interface with buttons, sliders, and toggles, arranged exactly the way you want. AVCommander is a dynamic control application designed to interface directly with professional AV equipment over IP networks. Rather than relying on pre-programmed logic or third-party control processors, the app generates UI on-the-fly based on added devices. KEY FEATURES Dynamic UI Generation The interface is built automatically from your devices. Add any device, and the app creates the appropriate controls — power buttons, volume sliders, input selectors, and more. Scene Management Create scenes to execute multiple commands with a single tap. Configure "All On" to power up your entire system, or "All Off" for shutdown. Add any number of commands to each scene. Command Automation Set repeat timers for any button (0.5 to 3600 seconds). Perfect for automated presentations, looped content playback, or scheduled commands. UI Password Protection Secure your interface with a 6-digit password. Use with Guided Access to prevent app exit and disable Edit Mode for end users. Recommended for installed systems. 17 Languages The app supports 17 languages, making it accessible to users worldwide. Dark & Light Themes Comfortable interface in any environment. Dark theme for dimly lit control rooms, light theme for bright spaces. Screen Rotation The UI adapts automatically to any orientation. Rotate your device and the controls adjust instantly. SUPPORTED DEVICE CATEGORIES Audio DSP Processors: Volume control, mute, recall, and preset management Video Matrix: HDMI matrices, seamless switches, multiviewers, and scalers Video Wall: Processors, LED screen controllers, projection systems, TV panels PTZ Cameras: VISCA protocol, preset recall, and tracking control VCS Codecs: API command support for video conferencing systems Congress Systems: Microphone control, chairman side, active mic management Lighting & Automation: Light control systems, motorized shades, blinds Custom Devices: Digital signage players, any TCP/IP controllable device with API support SUPPORTED CONTROL PROTOCOLS TCP, UDP, Telnet, HTTP, JSON-RPC, WebSocket, TCP Server (receive commands from equipment) DRIVER LIBRARY Download ready-made configurations for popular devices from the built-in driver library. Drivers are automatically updated and added via GitHub repository. Simply download the required driver and import it into the app with one tap. FULL SYSTEM CONFIGURATION Download complete equipment configurations with full command sets to your device. Share entire room configurations with colleagues. With JSON import and export, you can load, save, or transfer the complete configuration of multiple devices at once. Perfect for replicating settings across projects with identical equipment. BRAND COMPATIBILITY Barco, Biamp, BrightSign, Crestron, Kramer, NEC, Novastar, Panasonic, Sony, Spinetix, Televic, TVOne and others STANDARTS PJLink, VISCA and others COMMAND MANAGEMENT Manual device addition with IP address and port configuration Base command sets for each device type Create custom commands — buttons, sliders, toggles Bulk import and export via JSON files Driver library with ready-made configurations

When noise becomes a problem, the loudest number doesn't win — the complete log does. MeterWorks Sound Meter is a sound level meter and noise log in one: measure, document incidents, export the log PDF. No ads, no subscription, no account. NOISE LOG — THE HEART OF IT • Every incident with start, duration, type, and measured level — turn any recording into a diary entry with one tap • Tag events with one tap: bass/music, footsteps, dog, drilling, traffic … • Pro: automatic events — when the level crosses your threshold, the entry creates itself with start, duration, Leq, and max level • Export a log PDF in the tabular form landlords and mediators expect: date, time, duration, type, measured levels, notes — with a methodology footer • Fair by design: the app stores NO audio — only level values. No secret recordings, no legal gray zone MEASURE • Live readout with a big dB(A) value, Fast/Slow weighting, smooth real-time graph • Leq, LAFmax, LAFmin — the numbers that belong in real reports • Pro: dB(C)/dB(Z) weighting and L10/L50/L90/L95 percentiles (background vs. events) • Offset calibration against a reference meter — wide ±25 dB range, because devices drift YOUR DATA IS YOURS • Free: PNG export of any measurement • Pro: CSV of the full per-second series (LAeq/LAFmax/LAFmin) — spreadsheet-ready, shared in seconds • Pro: multi-page PDF report with statistics, level history, and the event table FREE VS. PRO — NO SURPRISES Free is a real instrument: unlimited live measurement, three recordings of 10 seconds each, 3 manual diary entries per day, PNG export. Pro is a single one-time purchase: recordings without time or count limits, auto events, CSV, log PDF, percentiles, dB(C)/(Z) — all future Pro features included. No subscription, ever. WHAT THIS APP CANNOT DO — HONESTLY iPhone microphones measure reliably from roughly 30 to 100 dB(A), within ±2–3 dB after calibration. Certified, court-grade measurements are beyond any smartphone — apps promising that are bluffing. The log serves documentation; the in-app page "Limits of this measurement" explains exactly what works. TYPICAL USES Document neighbor noise · back up a complaint with timestamped data · level a home theater or rehearsal room · compare machine and fan noise NO SUBSCRIPTION. NO ADS. NO TRACKERS. All measurement data stays on your device. MeterWorks is a family of honest measurement apps: Vibrometer for vibration, Teslameter for magnetic fields — just as honest, just as subscription-free.
