Description
Over 42 calculations for pro-audio sound reinforcement and lighting, as well as reference info and utilities. A super handy tool for people dealing with PA, sound reinforcement, sound systems, electroacoustics, pro-audio and lighting
The app is very light (like a typical mobile phone photo), works offline and uses no data bandwidth
More than 42 calculations spread across 26 calculators: - SPL (sound pressure level). Enter sensitivity in dB SPL, power, number of loudspeakers, phase and distance - SPL sum - Air absorption attenuation for a given humidity, temperature, frequency and distance - Ceiling speaker coverage - Time «» Distance - Audio frequency «» Wavelength (includes lambda/2 and 2*lambda/3 for line arrays or subwoofer arrays) - Line Array transition distance (near field to far field) - In-line (end-fire, gradient) array simulation with left/right mirroring - Broadside (line) subwoofer array modelling with electronic or mechanical arcing and steering as well as end-fire/gradient(cardioid) lines - dBu «» dBV «» Volts - Q «» B/W (bandwidth) - Limiter threshold (and times) - Amplifier gain - Speaker cable: low impedance, high impedance (constant voltage line, 70V/100V). Calculates energy and level loss, system damping factor - Electrical and musical calculators that are related to audio. Unit conversion - Lights: DMX channel, RGB/RGBW/RGBA and CMY - Reference info: Pinouts, proaudio (XLR, 1/4", 1/8", SpeakOn, DB25) and lighting (XLR3, XLR5) and graphs (Fletcher&Munson, microphone polar plots) - Utilities (inclinometer, flashlight-needs camera permission that can be later revoked in phone settings) - Link to latest industry news and educational content from DoctorProAudio.com
iOS (iPhone/iPad) version also available
Recent changes: - SPL sum calculator now allows summing with phase distance or time difference - The flashlight / light can now flash at two speeds for signalling use - Improved appearance in dark mode - Fixes fields with occasional flashing background

Very handy At last an app for android that does a range of audio calculations. Does what it says on the tin!
★★★★★Dave Knepper· Nov 1, 2016
So many useful tools here. Pretty much any conversion you would ever need to do, this will now do the heavy lifting.
★★★★☆A Google User· Feb 10, 2014
Great app, but...... A really useful 5-star audio toolkit, but spoiled by the interface - unlike the website version you have to go through 6 screens before you get to the calculators - similar apps like ElectroDroid take you to the calculator you want with a single touch.

Thanks for nice App to calculate DJ Equipment's Question: While calculate Limiter threshold, Power input is in RMS power or any other power ?

This app says it needs access to my camera. Why? Tried to contact the developer via "Feedback", but there seems to be a problem with his email verification system that proves I am not a robot. I followed the instructions, but it just sent another verification email.

Awful, it is super laggy and has ads every 5 seconds
