(OctVal) - Power spectrum display function at the time of occurrence of Max. (Display Max) # Control functions - Calibration: level correction value setting, -20 to +20dB - Measurement timer: 1 minute / 5 minutes / 10 minutes / 15 minutes / 20 minutes / 30 minutes / 1 hours - Snapshot (Snap): Save measurement display with time stamp to Photos. Applications: - Live Sound - Environmental noise measurement - Installation of audio equipment - Tuning of audio equipment - Architectural acoustics - Broadcast - Device management Example of the noise level situation: - 130dB: Engine sound of Airplane - 110dB: Horn of Car - 100dB: Noise of passing train - 90dB: In loud factory - 80dB: In the train, Vacuum cleaner - 70dB: Noisy office, Noisy Street - 60dB: Quiet Car, Normal conversation - 50dB: Quiet office - 40dB: In the library, Quiet residential area - 30dB: Outskirts of midnight, Whisper - 20dB: Sounds of rubbing leaves Note: The first time the app accesses the built-in microphone and Photos after installation, the iOS system will ask you for permission to access them. If you have not enabled this setting, the application will not be able to access them due to iOS system privacy restrictions.
