5/5Best audio test app, period
Works great, nothing else even comes close for iOS. Worth every penny. The folks complaining about cost have no clue. This is highly extensible professional software at a reasonable cost for basic, audio testing functionality. It’s tight integration with their hardware results in a accurate test instrument. Even when using a device’s built in mic, the app’s frequency and SPL compensation provide useful data. The idea that all of this professional functionality be provided for 20 bucks is nuts.

5/5Pro Audio Must Have App!!
I work as a pro sound mixer and downloaded Audio Tools thinking it would be a cool toy to show off to collegues, but not much more. As it turns out, Audio Tools is a "how did I ever live without it?" app! I have used The RTA with the internal iphone mic to rough tune LOUD monitor wedges and FOH systems and so far have been very happy with the results. The db meter works great as does the tone generator. This app literally replaces $1000's worth of test equipment for the price of a Radio Shack db meter!! If you tour as an artist or band sound mixer and don't already have a SMART, Apogee, Earthworks rig, this app is for you, especially if you work on A different PA everyday! I can't wait to try the interface.

5/5Awesome app
I’ve used this app for years now and have not rated it but it has always been up in the 4-5 star range. Great updates and quick to fix any bugs. I thought I bought the SPL pro once but it never transferred to my newer devices. I could be wrong it was quite a while ago, but everything else has always transferred with all my new devices. I found that there is an option to restore purchases but I did have to click the SPL pro button first for the choice to restore to come up. Andrew did respond but I had already figured it out. Thanks for your help and quick response.

5/5Excellent features, accuracy, and support.
So far, I have only made use of the LARSA tool in this suite, but the attention to detail is very high, so I get the impression that everything in this suite of tools is just as good. The author, Andrew Smith, was also very responsive and helpful in email when I asked some usage questions. The LARSA tool is amazing. My goal was to find out if my car stereo had any need for EQ correction because I thought I could hear an unnatural peak at 1.5k. So I was able to pair my iPhone with the car stereo so that the LARSA app played a frequency sweep through the car speakers, while the app simultaneously listened to the resulting sweep with its internal mic, and then graphed it. Sure enough, there was the proof: a hump at 1.5k in the graph, about 8db’s worth. I could then easily make a parametric EQ correction of the exact amount, and now it sounds much better. I was able to do all this immediately without any special configuration, it just worked out of the box. The author has posted about how the app turns off some of the built in filtering and limiting on the iPhone’s internal mic so that it gets an accurate response. For adjusting my car stereo, this was enough for my needs, but it’s great to know that I could also attach a calibrated microphone and get and even more accurate result. The app lets you run multiple tests (up to 8 of them I think) and compare them or average them together. I used this to get multiple samples from different listening positions in the car. It also lets you save and recall multiple test runs, adjust for latency, and other things. Very feature-complete. Final note: the LARSA tool is among the “in-app-purchases”, so you will need to buy it separately, though it has a 7-day trial built in. I think you can also buy it “a la carte”, or with other bundles, in the App Store.

5/5Almost every tool you will ever need
I have used this app for setting up sound systems (pinpointing feed back quick and easy), tuning speaker cabinets, mastering Cds. You will need more than this but its another tool. Few jobs can be done with just one tool. Yes to make some things easier you will need to purchase some additional tools. Still When a mechanic buys a tool box he generally adds more tools. No doubt your ears are your most important tools that you have, but this suit of apps are definitely a huge help. With this app you get a lot for 20 bucks. The additional modules make a complete tool box. With the ability to see what you hearing.
