ANSI Type 1 Accuracy

Advanced DSP algorithms deliver precise sound pressure level readings compliant with ANSI Type 1 standards for professional measurements.

A/C/Z Weighting

Choose A-weighting for occupational noise, C-weighting for low-frequency and peak levels, or Z-weighting for flat acoustic research.

Spectrum Analyzer

Visualize sound energy across 31 frequency bands with the built-in 1/3 octave spectrum analyzer to identify problematic frequencies.

Noise Dose Monitoring

Protect your hearing with NIOSH-based exposure tracking. Color-coded alerts warn you of safe, caution, and dangerous noise levels.

Precision Calibration

Device-specific profiles for every iPhone and iPad model, plus manual calibration support for external measurement microphones.

RT60 Measurement

Measure room acoustics with built-in RT60 reverberation analysis. Evaluate acoustic treatment and optimize studio or venue sound quality.

Frequency Weighting Options

Choose the right weighting curve to match your specific measurement requirements.

A-Weighting (dBA)

The standard for measuring environmental and occupational noise. Matches human hearing sensitivity and is required for OSHA and NIOSH compliance measurements.

C-Weighting (dBC)

Ideal for measuring low-frequency noise and peak sound levels. Commonly used in entertainment venues and for assessing hearing damage risk.

Z-Weighting (Flat)

Unweighted measurement providing the true acoustic energy across all frequencies. Essential for acoustic research and audio production.

Precision Measurement Tools

Fast and Slow Response

Toggle between 125ms fast response for capturing transient sounds and 1-second slow response for steady-state noise measurement.

Nine Measurement Ranges

Select from ranges spanning 30dB to 130dB to optimize display resolution for your environment, from quiet studios to loud industrial settings.

Peak Hold and Statistics

Track minimum, maximum, peak, and Leq (equivalent continuous sound level) values throughout your measurement session.

Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer

Visualize sound energy distribution across 31 frequency bands with the built-in 1/3 octave spectrum analyzer.

Noise Exposure Monitoring

Protect your hearing with integrated noise dose calculation based on NIOSH recommended exposure limits. The app tracks your cumulative noise exposure and alerts you to potentially harmful sound levels.

Safe

Below 70 dBA

No hearing damage risk

Caution

70-85 dBA

Prolonged exposure may cause damage

Danger

Above 85 dBA

Hearing protection recommended

Session Recording & Export

Record measurement sessions and review your data with detailed graphs showing SPL variations over time. Export your measurements as CSV or JSON files for further analysis, reporting, or compliance documentation.

RT60 Reverberation Measurement

Measure room acoustics with the built-in RT60 measurement tool. Analyze decay time to evaluate acoustic treatment effectiveness, optimize studio acoustics, or assess venue sound quality.
