Ultrasonic Analyzer vs Koala Sampler

Ultrasonic Analyzer is a real-time spectrum, spectrogram, oscilloscope, and octave RTA analyzer for your iPhone or iPad. It provides a visual representation of ultrasounds using a sampling rate of up to 384kHz**. You can listen to transposed ultrasounds* and analyze them in real time. For sounds that are normally inaudible, a slowed-down playback option is also available. Ultrasonic Analyzer can be used to analyze the calls of various animals (e.g., bats, dolphins), measure the frequency response of high-end audio equipment, or evaluate ultrasonic sensors. Additionally, it allows you to analyze short imported audio files within a spectrogram context. Features - Sampling rates: 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz, 192kHz, 200kHz, 250kHz, 384kHz** - Real-time transposed ultrasound listening during recording* - Spectrogram analyzer: Color and black & white modes - Spectrum analyzer - Oscilloscope (full FFT window size) - Octave RTA analyzer: Bands – full, 1/3, 1/6, 1/12 (RMS values) - Max/min Octave RTA values - dBFS Meter - Fast real-time response - Adjustable spectrogram frequency resolution - Configurable time interval between FFT computations, with values as low as 1ms or even lower - Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) - FFT window sizes: 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 16384, 32768, 65536 - Recording trigger: Automatically triggers based on specified frequency bands - Zoom and pan capabilities for all charts - Measurement tools available in all charts - Playback analysis - Transposition during playback - Slow-down playback: Transpose octaves down for easier analysis - Picture-in-Picture (PIP) mode: Allows simultaneous spectrogram analysis with a secondary chart (Octave RTA, Spectrum, or Oscilloscope) - Audio input support: Built-in microphone, external microphone (via USB camera adapter or iPhone/iPad dock connector – Core Audio compliant devices) - Sharing options: Share charts and audio recordings via email, social networks, or clipboard - Exporting capabilities: Save audio recordings (WAV) and image charts (PNG) to iOS Document Browser - Audio file import: Load short audio files from other apps or the iOS Document Browser - Supported audio formats: WAV, CAF, AAC, MP3 - Automatic sample rate conversion for imported files - Frequency scale options: Linear and logarithmic - Amplitude scale options: Linear and logarithmic (dBFS) - dBFS Meter weighting: dBZ (linear) - Adjustable spectrogram length (dependent on resolution settings) Tested with (via USB adapter): - Dodotronic Ultramic200K, Ultramic250K, Ultramic384K - Pettersson M500-384 - Avisoft UltraSoundGate 116Un Make sure you are using the latest iOS update. *Requires an external microphone with ultrasonic capabilities connected via a USB adapter. **Real-time analysis at a 96kHz sample rate or higher is only possible with an external USB microphone. Alternatively, you can import files recorded on an external device for non-real-time analysis.

Koala is the ultimate pocket-sized sampler. Record anything with your phone's mic or load your own sounds. Use Koala to create beats with those samples, add effects and create a track! Koala's super intuitive interface helps you make a track in a flash - there is no brake pedal. You can also resample the output of the app back into the input, through the effects, so the sonic possibilities are endless. Koala's design focuses totally on making the music-making process instant, keeping you in the flow and keeping it fun, not getting bogged down by pages of parameters and micro-editing.
