Transfer Function vs ToneGen PlusMinus

Transfer Function is a dual-FFT acoustic analysis app that is used for sound system audio analysis. Since it can operate with music as the signal source, it can be used during a musical performance to monitor and turn the system equalization during the show. Transfer function includes: -- Magnitude Graph -- Phase Graph -- Coherence Plot -- Delay Finder -- Signal Generator Normally a transfer function requires a two-channel interface, and that is true with this one, also, if you want to use it with program material (music). However, you can use our Transfer Funciton with the internal iOS microphone, if you can send the pink noise generator output to the sound system input. In this configuration, the internal generator is routed back to the input as the reference channel. You can measure delay, magnitude, and phase using this setup. When you use Transfer Function with a two-channel audio interface to run, such as the Studio Six Digital iAudioInterface2, then you can also use any audio source as the test signal, including music.

Signal generator for identifying audio frequencies by manually matching the pitch. Identifying feedback frequencies rapidly and precisely as an audio tech in a concert situation is a crucial function. Sometimes the feedback is intermittent, or only happens for an instant. For decades I and others have used the procedure of holding a heard pitch in my head and them matching it with some sort of tone generator. There are several iPhone apps that I have used, holding the phone up to my ear to hear the tone. They all have either a dial or a slider to set the pitch. An endless dial can be very precise, but is difficult to operate without looking at the screen. A slider is resolution limited by the length on the screen and so can't be precise. ToneGen PlusMinus uses a novel pitch setting UI which I invented 20 years ago for a Palm III app I wrote. It is very easy to rapidly and precisely match a frequency across it's range of 30 Hz to 10 kHz, without looking at the screen at all. The farther up or down from center your touch slides, the faster the pitch changes. Slide back to center and it stays stable.
