About AudioTool
SPL (deciBel) Meter featuring RT60, Leq, Sone, Spectrum Analyzer, Spectrogram, Chart Recorder, Signal Generator, Polarity Checker, and Mic calibration. Recommended by "Sound and Vision" magazine. Loved by Audio Engineers worldwide: check out the Reviews! Features: 1/1, 1/3, 1/6 & 1/12 octave RTA modes, Leq (wideband, Octave, variable duration), Sones (Loudness), RT60 (wideband, Octave), Peak Store, Spectrogram, Waterfall, Peak frequency, Impulse, Fast, Medium & Slow filters, Flat & A/C Weighting and film industry X Curve, Averaging, SPL Chart Recorder, Noise Criteria (NC and NR), White/Pink Noise, Sine, Square, Triangle, Sweep, Log Sweep, Warble, Ramp and Impulse signals & loudspeaker polarity checker, L/R select. RTA Store & Load, Hann windows, pinch to zoom, scroll to center. Examples of recent updates (April 2019): v8.0 New Feature: Load one or two stored spectrum files and display both alongside the realtime data. v8.1 New Generator option: swap phase of Right stereo signal v8.2 New Menu option "Set Resolution" allowing to set 4096, 8192, or 16384 sample lengths v8.3 New 1/12 Octave RTA mode Exclusive ISO 1/3 Octave Calibration - can correct for your phone's microphone response. Octave calibration discs are moved up or down to obtain a flat response, and match the overall SPL to that of an external meter. Save/Restore of Cal files (popular Dayton Audio iMM-6, MicW i436, also supported). Use: gig measurements, home theater, acoustics, car, etc. AudioTool FFTs sets of microphone samples. Aliasing reduced by Hann windowing. SPL calculated in realtime. Spectra may be saved, then loaded and displayed with the live spectrum. The "Store" button stores the current live spectrum - "Load" shows a list of stored spectra to select. To hide the buttons, tap the screen. To restore them, tap again. To zoom the scale, pinch the screen. To move the scale, drag it up or down (left or right). A pair of cursors can be shown: each can be moved to any position, and will display the SPL & time/frequency values there. The cursors can be turned on and off in the Menu. The loudspeaker polarity checker can be used to check whether a loudspeaker is wired in phase: connect the AudioTool output to the speaker under test, select "Polarity" from the signal generator screen, then return to the RTA screen. If the speaker is out of phase (polarity reversed) AudioTool will show "Pol ---", otherwise "Pol +++" if the speaker is in phase. The Noise Criteria function shows a set of NC contours overlaid on the 1/1 Octave RTA display and the calculated real time current NC value is also shown. The Chart Recorder shows a moving trace of the SPL measurements over the last few minutes. RT60 measurements (how much reverberation or echo there is in a room or hall) can be made using the "RT60" function, triggered using a loud clap (or similar) to or with Pink Noise from the AudioTool generator. The Signal Generator generates White and Pink Noise, Sine, Square, Triangle and Ramp waves…
What AudioTool Is Used For
AudioTool appears to be a phone app for measuring and analyzing sound with the device microphone. Based on the metadata, it is commonly used as an SPL meter and audio analysis toolkit, with functions such as spectrum viewing, spectrograms, RT60, loudness measurements, and chart recording. That makes it relevant for people who want to inspect room acoustics, check playback levels, or study audio signals in more detail.
The included permissions for microphone access and storage suggest that the app may record incoming audio data, calculate results in real time, and save or load measurement files. Its signal generator and polarity checker also point to practical use in speaker testing, calibration, and basic audio troubleshooting. This kind of app may be used on a phone during field checks, home theater setup, live sound work, car audio tuning, or general acoustics evaluation.
Common uses
- Measure sound pressure levels with the phone microphone
- View frequency content with spectrum and octave analysis
- Check reverberation, loudness, and charted audio trends
- Generate test tones and noise signals for setup work
- Compare stored spectra with live readings
- Use calibration tools for more consistent microphone-based measurements
- Check loudspeaker polarity and basic phase behavior
