RTA (FFT / Spectrogram)
Only for Mac
Free · In-App Purchases
Mac
This RTA app supports simultaneous display of "Audio Waveform", as well as the FFT-based "Amplitude Spectrum" (frequency magnitude) and "Spectrogram" (frequency distribution over time), for audio signals input from a microphone.
(FFT: Fast Fourier Transform, RTA: Real Time Analyzer)
=== Features ===
- Selectable configuration of Waveform / Spectrum / Spectrogram display.
- Selectable FFT size, spectrum Average, window function.
- Selectable frequency weighting (A-weighting, C-weighting, Z-weighting)
- Selectable the type of expressing the X direction (frequency) of Spectrum / Spectrogram. (Linear, Log)
- Display of spectrum peak level and peak frequency
- Peak Hold (displays held past peak values of the spectrum)
- Octave Analysis (displays the spectrum grouped into octave bands)
- Audio signal generation (4 waveform types)
- Pitch meter display
- Zoomed waveform and spectrum display
If you purchase the Pro version via In-App Purchase, you can use the following features.
- FFT sizes: 4096, 8192, 16384, 32768 (for more precise spectrum analysis)
- Log output (saves analysis results in CSV format)

Ratings & Reviews
- This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
- Added an FFT size of 32768. (4096 ~ 32768 are available in the Pro version.)
- Added dB values alongside frequency values when tapping the spectrum.
- Improved the logarithmic frequency axis to show finer numerical labels when zoomed in.
