Audio Frequency Analyzer vs Sound Spectrum Analysis

"Audio Frequency Analyzer" is a powerful real-time audio analyzer (RTA) app for iPhone. With its simple operation, you can easily measure and evaluate your sound environment. This app measures the frequency response in 30 split band scale of 1/3 octave in real time. It can also display the FFT analysis results. It supports calibration for 1/3-octave bands. By adjusting the characteristics to match not only the built-in microphone but also your external microphone, it achieves high measurement accuracy. "Audio Frequency Analyzer" can be used for various applications, including sound room tuning, speaker settings, audio equipment testing, stage setup measurement, sound mixing environment evaluation and noise environment investigation. Features: - Frequency spectrum response measurement of 1/3 octave unit, 30 bands. (OCT) - FFT Analyzer (FFT) - Observation frequency range: 20 - 23000 Hz - Logarithmic amplitude display. - Touch-scroll function to adjust visible amplitude ranges. - Display the measured value of 1/3 oct bands at OCT mode. (dB@OCT) - Function to change the graph slope at FFT mode. (Slope): -3dB/oct (less than 1kHz), +3dB/oct (1kHz or higher) - Peak hold function. (Hold) - Average display function. (Avg): Time linear averaging. Fast-2.56sec, Slow-12.8 sec - Display response control. (Fast/Slow) - Reset of Measurement display position. (Scroll) - Snapshot of Measurement display. (Snap) - Calibration function in OCT mode. (Calibrate): 1/3 octave band offset and total offset setting. - Supports built-in microphone, headset microphone, and external digital audio connection. Note: The first time you access your microphone and photos after installing the app, the iOS system will ask you for permission to access them. If you have not enabled this setting, the app will not be able to access them due to iOS system privacy restrictions. Please enable the access permission in the iOS setting "Settings > Privacy & Security > Photos or Microphone". Please visit our iOS app support page for more information about this app.

The application is designed for analysis of a sound spectrum in real time (with a microphone). Besides, the application can be used as a measuring instrument of noise level (not for exact measurements). • Sound wave. • Fast fourier transform (FFT). FFT size: 2048 (the accuracy of determining the frequency of ±12 Hz), 4096 (±6 Hz), 8192 (±3 Hz), 16384 (±2 Hz), 32768 (±1 Hz), 65536 (±0.5 Hz), 131072 (±0.2 Hz). • Linear and logarithmic frequency scale. • Linear frequency scale with maximum details (there is a choice for the displayed frequency range). • Linear and logarithmic amplitude scale. • Octave bands (1/1, 1/3, 1/6, 1/12). • Window functions (Blackman, Hamming, Hann (Hanning), Blackman–Nuttall, Gaussian, Flat top). • A- and C-Weightings. • Peak hold. • Exponential spectrum averaging. • Peak frequency detection. • Values of any point (for frequency scale and sound wave (at maximum detail)). • Sound level meter (dB SPL). You can calibrate your microphone by launching a signal generator with a sinusoid frequency of 1000 Hz on another device and making the volume very low. When the sound is almost inaudible, it is necessary to find the amplitude for the frequency of 1000 Hz on the spectrum (FFT size: 16384). This value should be multiplied by 1.2 (to compensate for spectral leakage). It will be the reference value for your microphone. ESTIMATE THE TOTAL NOISE LEVEL BY USING THE SOUND WAVE MODE AT THE MAXIMUM VALUE. • Sample rate: 48000 Hz. • Taking a screenshot by lightly touching the screen. • Export data to a WAV or text file ("Y=[y1 y2... yn]", "y1;y2;... yn", "x1;y1\nx2;y2;..."). Number of points is adjusted via "FFT size". • Automatic stop in the sound wave mode (when increasing or decreasing signal strength). • Automatic stop in the spectrum mode. Now you can stop data collection when the start of the fading signal reaches the end of the FFT buffer. The beginning of the signal is not calculated accurately (just like with an automatic stop in the sound wave mode). • Test wave. • Saving the measurement results in the application. Files with saved data (SavedData_[date]_[time].txt) can be copied to a desktop/laptop computer or transferred to another iPhone using iTunes. There are buttons for quick loading and comparing saved files. • Dark theme. • List of frequency peaks. If several peaks have a common base, then they are considered as one peak. The minimum height of the peak for octave bands is 2 dB. • Interpolation of frequencies in the list of peaks. To interpolate the frequency of the peak, select the Gaussian window (the accuracy of determining the frequency can increase by 10-100 times). The calculation is not done for the extreme bins or if the adjacent bin is zero. • Calculation of the amplitude (in the list of peaks) using neighboring bins (to compensate for spectral leakage and use of the window). The number of bins used for calculation is written in brackets. • Collecting recent data (last minute). You can move over all collected data. The amplitude of the waveform can be changed in the sound wave mode. • Calibration file. The app recognizes only files for the UMIK-1 microphone, but you can specify which microphones you need support for.
