I'm not sure about the purpose of this product

12.03.2015

This seemed like a fantastic product when I bought it, to do simple dB and RTA-measurements from my ipad/iphone.
However, the maximum SPL you can get into an Ipad is not a lot, mine peaks at around 108dB which makes measurements in loud environments a bit unreliable.
And since most calibrators work at around 110-114dB I haven't been able to calibrate it properly either.

I'm not sure if this is a limitation in the microphone or the ipad, but my guess is that the ipad can't handle any greater input voltage through the microphone input. After all, it's designed for speech not SPL-measurments...

This is however NOT the products fault, it works fine but not very well for the application purpose.

But again, you get what you pay for :)

Great tool for checking out a room

StuartB, 29.05.2015

I use this, along with an app on my phone/tablet, to help set up my graphic EQs in theatres. It is very compact and which means it is small enough to always be in my laptop bag if I ever need it. It seems to give a very accurate reading on the rooms when I run some pink noise through the systems however the app I use has a built in compensation curve for this particular microphone. It's well built and come is a nice neat case.
