Read full description

CreamAudio turns your Mac, iPad, or iPhone plus a class-compliant USB or Thunderbolt audio interface (such as a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2) into a complete professional audio measurement bench. The interface's analog inputs become the front end; its outputs drive the built-in signal generator. Multiple precision instruments share one calibrated signal path: OSCILLOSCOPE โ€ข Live two-channel display in normal (Y-t) and XY (Lissajous) modes โ€ข Adjustable volts/division and time/division with pinch and scroll zoom โ€ข Edge triggering with Auto / Normal / Single modes and single-shot capture โ€ข Graticule with division labels and live Vpp, RMS, frequency readouts โ€ข Per-channel DC/AC coupling and vertical offset FUNCTION GENERATOR โ€ข Sine, square, triangle, sawtooth, white and pink noise โ€ข Per-channel frequency, amplitude, offset, phase, and duty cycle โ€ข Sweep, chirp, and burst programs โ€ข Test Tape: an automated alignment-tape sequence (reference tones 400 Hz to 12.5 kHz, sweep, chirp, burst, flutter tone) to record onto a deck and measure back โ€ข Route to the same interface (loopback) or a separate output device SPECTRUM & SPECTROGRAM โ€ข Real-time FFT spectrum with selectable size and windowing, log/linear axes โ€ข Spectrogram heatmap across the recorded timeline FREQUENCY RESPONSE โ€ข Measure response with white / pink / swept stimulus that drives the generator automatically; curves accumulate for easy comparison DISTORTION & LEVEL โ€ข Automatic THD, THD+N, and SNR measurement โ€ข Vpp, Vrms, mean, frequency, period, and duty-cycle readouts โ€ข Built-in analog-style AC millivoltmeter (1 mV to 30 V, dual volt/dB scales) WOW & FLUTTER METER โ€ข Speed-stability analysis for turntables, cassette, and reel-to-reel tape โ€ข DIN / IEC 386 (3150 Hz) and JIS (3000 Hz) reference tones with auto-detect โ€ข WRMS, DIN 2-sigma quasi-peak, and unweighted readings; deviation waveform RECORD, SCRUB & EXPORT โ€ข Record the raw two-channel stream and scrub the timeline to find transients โ€ข Re-run any analysis offline on a selected window โ€ข Save recordings to WAV (lossless) or AAC (.m4a) CALIBRATION โ€ข Map normalized samples to real volts with manual entry or a guided reference solve, so every reading is in true voltage units; profiles persist per device Sample rates up to 192 kHz where the interface supports them. Everything runs locally on your device โ€” no account, no network, no data collection. Requires a Metal-capable device. An external audio interface is recommended for real measurement work; the built-in microphone can be used for casual signals. Requires a subscription or one-time purchase. Start with a 3-day free trial, after which a monthly subscription begins automatically and renews each month unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Prefer to pay once? Unlock everything with a one-time lifetime purchase โ€” no trial, no subscription. The free trial is available to new subscribers. Subscription and lifetime prices are shown in the app and on this product page. All features described below are included once unlocked; there is no separately-priced content.

WaveTone Studio is a powerful mobile audio studio for iPhone and iPad. Import audio and video files, record directly with the microphone, edit waveforms precisely, and export results for music, clips, podcasts, ringtones, or quick audio ideas. Import MP3, WAV, M4A/AAC, AIFF, CAF, OGG, OGA, and Opus. You can also select compatible MOV, MP4, and M4V videos from Files or Photos. WaveTone Studio automatically extracts the audio track and loads it into the editor. Your audio is displayed as a clear waveform with zooming, scrolling, and a playhead. Pinch-to-zoom stays centered between your fingers. Place the playhead anywhere and start playback from that exact position. Selections show their start, end, and duration directly in the waveform, and both selection handles can be dragged for precise adjustment. A compact mini waveform remains visible while you scroll through the editor. Select ranges, select all, delete, trim, copy, paste, fade in or out, and adjust gain. VU meters with clipping indicators help you monitor levels. Silence Trim, Noise Reduction, and De-Click help clean up unwanted passages. Creative and technical tools include Pitch, Speed, Crossfade, EQ, Reverb, Delay, Normalize, Limiter, and generators for silence and noise. Export in common audio formats with options for bitrate, sample rate, and channels. Ringtone ranges can be selected, moved, previewed, and exported directly in the editor. Share or save finished files through the iOS share sheet. WaveTone Studio is made for musicians, content creators, podcasters, DJs, editors, and anyone who wants to edit audio quickly and precisely on a mobile device. Free features: - Audio and video import - Audio extraction from videos - OGG, OGA, and Opus import - Microphone recording - Waveform with zoom, scrolling, and position-accurate playback - Draggable selection handles with time labels - Delete, copy, paste, trim, fades, and gain - Standard export - Ringtone export up to 10 seconds Included with Pro: - MP3, WAV, CAF, and ALAC export - Ringtone export up to 30 seconds - Pitch, Speed, and Crossfade - Reverb, Delay, and EQ with presets - Normalize and Limiter - Silence Trim, Noise Reduction, and De-Click - Insert silence and generate noise
