Fast and smooth real-time spectrum analyzer for iPhone and iPad. Bars, line and spectrogram. IEC-style SPL, calibration, alarms, peak finder. Flexible and customizable.
A Lifetime purchase. No Subscriptions.
Spectrum Eye shows the frequency content of what your mic or interface is hearing - smoothly, at high FFT sizes, without freezing the UI.
Version 2 is a full rebuild: Metal plot, bars / line / spectrogram, calibrated SPL, and mic correction on the live spectrum.
For music professionals, audio engineers, sound technicians, installers, car audio, and audio students. Equally at home as a quick check or a plot you leave running.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Monitor sound quality at concerts and rehearsals
• Ring out feedback in stage monitors
• Find resonances in rooms, boxes, instruments and cars
• Check spectral balance of playback in the studio
• Practice frequency-aware hearing
• Measure SPL with A / C / Z weighting and Fast / Slow / Leq
PLOT
• Bars, line, and spectrogram - the configuration button is in the top right corner
• Fractional-octave resolution from 1/1 through 1/96
• Line smoothing follows the same octave map
• Peak hold with a slow release, optional fill under the line
• Find Peak (FP) tracks the loudest band in the visible range
• Classic or Overlay layout treats plot area vs scales differently; Overlay is the default
• Pan, pinch-zoom, and a live cursor in Hz and dB
• Frequency visible range presets (Full 8 Hz–22 kHz, Audio, Lows, Mids, Highs)
• Magnitude-range presets
• Spectrogram duration, Jet / Viridis / Inferno / Grayscale color palette
• Light, Dark, or System appearance, plus a custom plot color
• Spectrum update rate: 60 fps Smooth, 30 fps Efficient, or Auto (drops under heat or Low Power Mode)
SPL
• IEC-style meter: Fast, Slow, and Leq
• A, C, and Z (flat) frequency weighting
• Per-route SPL offset so you can calibrate against a reference
• Yellow / red SPL alarm thresholds per weighting, with UI tinting
• Clip indicator and a 30–140 dB level meter bar
• iPhone: Large panel in portrait device orientation; in landscape orientation, compact readout in the top bar
• iPad: switchable large and compact SPL mode
INPUT AND CALIBRATION
• Built-in mics (including iPad position / directivity where the device offers them)
• External microphones and class-compliant audio interfaces
• iOS measurement mode to bypass built-in HPF, EQ, and AGC (recommended)
• Import mic calibration files (.cal, .txt, .csv); optional phase column is ignored
• Per-route calibration curve and IEC weighting on the live spectrum
• Pink noise generator, including with the screen off (Lock Screen / Now Playing)
ANALYSIS
• FFT sizes 4K / 8K / 16K / 32K (default 16K)
• Fall-rate presets: 50 ms, 100 ms, 250 ms, 500 ms, 1 s, 5 s per 6 dB
• Nominal capture sample rate - 48 kHz, display ranges from 8 Hz to 22 kHz
Audio is processed on the device. Spectrum Eye does not record, store, or upload your audio.
Suggestions welcome - the app is in active development.
Includes In - app purchases: tips to the developer only. All the functionality is available once you download the app.
This app allows you to send pink noise through the headphone jack and read the generated output with the integrated mic on the phone.Very well designed and has many options and features. The only thing I would say it is lacking is an overall decibel meter to check loudness, but even if that never becomes a feature this is a great app and does what it is designed to do very well.

Thank You for Your kind review! We will keep working on the app so stay tuned, and thank You for a good suggestion.
Excellent app, one feature request
The_Myth_Maker
Great frame rate, pretty low latency, performs very well. However, I wish the resolution could get as fine as 1/100 or if I could type in an exact frequency to monitor instead of touching the frequency closest to the one I want, not getting the exact one I want because of the course resolution.
Developer Response
Thank You for a valuable feedback. Regarding max resolution: on iPad it’s 1/96 which is almost what You want. Unfortunately, higher resolutions are not practical as it will double the latency, require more computation.
