SignalScope X offers a range of powerful measurement and analysis tools to enhance your productivity in areas such as acoustics (sound and vibration), audio, electronics, and electroacoustics.

Standard Features

Included with all licenses

Multi-channel, real-time analysis of signals coming from the Mac or iOS device's selected audio channels
Multi-channel, real-time analysis of AIF, CAF, or WAV audio files
Assign engineering units to your input signals and calibrate external transducers for accurate measurements
Assign input channel units and sensitivities for individual USB Audio devices
Connect lab-grade microphones and sensors to your Mac, iPad, or iPhone with suitable interface hardware
Enhanced support for select hardware from Digiducer, The Modal Shop, and miniDSP
Nominal acoustic sensitivities included for iPhone and iPad built-in microphones
Manually switch between available audio input and output sources
Load microphone frequency response data (FRD) and apply frequency response correction (FRC)
Manually adjust audio sample rates, even up to 768 kHz
Save acquired measurement data to CSV, tab-delimited ASCII text, or MAT files
Save time domain data to AIF, CAF, or WAV audio files
Save high-resolution analyzer display images to PDF files

Pro Features

Additional features with Pro Tool Set license

User-defined custom metadata in saved audio and data files
Data logging support in the Level Meter, Octave Analyzer, and Noise Dosimeter
Percentile exceeded sound levels in the Level Meter and Octave Analyzer
Generate STI/STIPA signals in the Signal Generator tool
Selectable 1/9-octave filter resolution in the Octave Analyzer
Manually choose between Order 3, 5, and 7 filter slopes for all fractional-octave-band filters in the Octave Analyzer. The traditional O3 slope is 18 dB per octave rolloff, O5 is 30 dB/octave, and O7 is 42 dB/octave.
In the Octave Analyzer, route the output of any of the fractional-octave-band filters to an available output channel.
NC, RNC, and NR references curves, NC, SIL, and NR values in the Octave Analyzer
Voltage decibel levels can be displayed in dBV or dBu
Load data from multiple data files to generate average curves in the FFT, Octave, and Dual FFT tools
