Sound Level Analyzer vs Level

"Sound Level Analyzer" is the standard sound level measurement app with sound frequency analysis tools. It is available for a wide variety of applications, such as measuring ambient noise in neighborhoods, testing audio systems, checking interior noise in vehicles, checking sound at live events, and much more. "Sound Level Analyzer" has additional analysis features, which are time graph, real-time frequency spectrum analyzer (RTA) and FFT analyzer. It can be used to analyze sound source characteristics. Features: # Measurement and Analysis functions Main (Leq): Sound level measurement (real-time display) - Sound level measurement (dB): Leq (equivalent noise level), Min (minimum value), Max (maximum value), Avg (time average equivalent noise level) - Frequency weighting correction characteristics: A (for noise level meter), C (for sound level measurement), Z (no correction) - Time weighting characteristics: Fast = 0.125 sec, Slow = 1.0 sec Power Spectrum (P.S.): View of frequency spectrum analysis (real time display) - Spectrum analyzer function: FFT analysis, 1/3-octave band response analysis. - FFT frequency range settings: 100Hz - 20kHz (FFT all) / 100Hz - 3kHz / 3k - 6kHz - Measured value display function in 1/3 oct band response analysis. (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. 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 on this app.

Level is a fast, honest sound-level meter for iPhone. A big live decibel reading, plus Leq, Min, L90, and Peak alongside it — toggle on only what you need. A built-in reference generator and calibrated-mic support are there for speaker work or true SPL. One clean instrument, not a busy suite. FEATURES Big decibel reading — A/C/Z weighting, Fast (125 ms) or Slow (1 s) response Four toggleable stats in a 2×2 grid: Leq (energy-average), Min (quietest moment), L90 (background level — exceeded 90% of the time), Peak (true instantaneous peak). Always computed; show only what you need Peak-hold "Max" — a marker holds the loudest moment; tap to reset Reference signals: pink noise, white noise, ten octave tones (31.5 Hz–16 kHz), level-matched. 1 kHz tone pairs with a 94 dB calibrator Play any output — iPhone speaker, AirPlay, Bluetooth, or USB — while the meter keeps reading Calibrated-mic support: Dayton iMM-6C, miniDSP UMIK-1/UMIK-2/EARS, Behringer ECM8000, REW. Frequency correction plus a true-SPL anchor from the file's 1 kHz sensitivity Manual calibration offset Share card — current reading, your enabled stats, and the level bar Full VoiceOver support No account, no analytics, no third-party SDKs, no in-app purchases, no network connections HOW IT WORKS Open Level, allow the microphone, and read the room. Turn on Leq, Min, L90, and/or Peak in Settings → Readings to see them beside the live number in a 2×2 grid. Tap the meter to reset Max and every stat. For speaker work, tap play to send a reference signal to any output — pink noise for level-setting, white noise for tweeters, an octave tone for room modes, or the 1 kHz tone against a 94 dB calibrator. Long-press play (or use Settings) to switch. With the built-in mic, readings are approximate but honest and well-behaved. A calibrated USB mic and its cal file give true SPL. Either way, Level is a measurement tool, not a certified Type 1/2 instrument. GREAT FOR Checking if a room, party, nursery, or workspace is too loud Home theater/hi-fi — matching channels, setting levels, dialing in a subwoofer Car audio — matching and balancing components Live-sound hobbyists and DIY speaker builders Anyone who wants an honest number, without a pro measurement suite PRIVACY Audio is measured live only — never recorded, written to disk, or transmitted. No account, no analytics, no in-app purchases, no network connection at all. QUICK START Open Level, allow the microphone Read the big number (A-weighted by default) Settings → Readings: turn on Leq/Min/L90/Peak to add them to the grid Tap the meter to reset Max and every stat For speaker work: tap play to send a reference to any output; long-press to switch signals IMPORTANT Level is a general-purpose meter, not a certified Type 1/Type 2 instrument. Built-in mic readings are approximate; a calibrated USB mic with a cal file gives true SPL.
