RTA Lite App Reviews

Not so good. It was showing frequencies that were not even present, unless my i phone was generating internal bass frequencies, that the RTA was picking up- NOT.

Dont know how accurate this tool is, but it seems to be by listening and looking at the results. I had my stereo system playing at 98 hertz at 500hz.

Crashes instantly on iPod touch 3G with OS4

iPod touch, most recent generation with. iOS4

... for basic home audio/theatre analysis/placement with nominal upgrade costs to either the full RTA ($10) or FFT ($20) - free frequency files (pink noise) can be found at audiocheck.net for those wanting to muck around, although the fuller features of zooming, decay, saving, curves and in FFT the 5hz extension (subwoofers) and detailed graphing seem easily worth the $10 or $20 to assist in properly setting up home audio or theatre...

Have an iPhone 4s , worked great before I updated. The sensitivity is much too high, not sure if the app had been recalibrated to newer iPhones mics. Not useful to me now.

Just wondering why the latest update will not allow us to scroll up past 70db. I use this app for sourcing feedback issues in concerts. So my issues usually hit between 90-100 db, so currently this app is now useless to me. And its a shame because this app is so useful.

This used to be my go-to RTA app, but the recent update has rendered it completely useless. It needs to go above 80dB!! I should never have updated.

Shame on you studio six

This is a very good application, however I dont understand why it does not graph up to 20kHz. This would be very helpful. Currently, the graph only goes up to 16kHz.

Cant play with music!! Not cool...

Wonderful app for eqing sound systems, wringing out microphones and monitors. The $1 to remove ads is fair and worth it— the ads take up way too much space, and a buck is cheap for this type of software.

This was a 5-star app. I would have paid .99-1.99 for it to avoid ads. I dont want to pay 19.99 for the app. Its still useful. But, I have stopped using it. Oh well . . .

This is a great app! I use this all the time while running sound at my church. Great for live sound. But it needs more. I would go for the Paid version of this app because it has more- that is more helpful. Unfortunately the paid app is $10.99.- But if you can afford this app, I would defiantly get it!

For those disappointed with this app, youre insane! First, real RTA software costs hundreds. Second, the built in mic for iPhone doesnt reproduce anything below 100Hz very well, you need large diaphragm mics or a real RTA mic to get quality measurements. Do some homework and become a real engineer, you dont see architects building towers with free iPhone apps! Get real!

For a iPhone app i tuned my eq in my car with this and wow what a change in sound! You have to download pink noise and burn it to a disk or thumb drive and play it in the head unit on repeat. Then any low spots adjust the eq to even out the line on this app! Then your done turn it up and enjoy!!

Below a hundred and 25 Hz the readings become very in accurate on the iPhone 5. Desperately needs to be updated for the new microphone and iOS 6. Would easily be a five-star app if it were upgraded for current hardware and software. We know it can be done because the paid version of the app has been updated and works correctly at far lower frequencies than the lite version of this app. Sad because two generations ago this app was as good as a professional set up costing hundreds of dollars.

What happened to this app being useful? I cant meter anything over 70 DB anymore. I used to be able to scroll the meters down well above 110 DB, but now with this update it stops at 70. What the heck?

This program use to go higher than 70 decibels but now it doesnt so I can not pin point frequencies because theyre all above 70 on the graph. Wasnt like this before. Hope it gets fixed!

Cant see graph above 60-70db after update. I did use it a lot and it worked great but now its next to unusable. Please fix :-/
