room response app

[Bruce Watson]

Is there such a thing as a room response app? Something that would run on a smartphone or laptop that would play a calibration tone and listen to the room and graph the response? Something that would help me apply room treatments (think Auralex, RealTraps, etc.) to give me better sound -- both playing music and 5.1 / 7.1 / x.y sound tracks, and even for making a room more friendly for voice and/or music recording.

I'm sure such things are available for studio design; perhaps it's too much to ask for an app, IDK. But I won't know unless I ask. I've searched and not found anything, but that's no terribly unusual for me. Sigh...

Cool. Hadn't found that one.

I did finally dig up a couple of others. One is RTA and another is Pocket RTA HD. Don't know anything about them yet, but it's nice to see that "there's an app for that." Audio Tool looks like it might be the one for what I need.

There are two closely named audio utility apps...

Audio Tool at $1.99.

and

Audio Tools at $19.99.

"RTA" is one of the apps that the latter software vendor provides.

I'm sorry, it's Audio Tools that I meant. It comes with a bunch of nice tools and you can buy others from inside the app. Depending on what you add on this app can get quite $$$.
