Description:

With the HandDee Spectrum Analyzer, a PDA becomes probably the world's cheapest, smallest and easiest-to-use color graphic handheld real-time audio spectrum analyzer, not to mention the expensive & bulky portable RTA.

The software generates real-time fading frequency spectrum or 1/3 octave ISO bar. An intelligent wave monitor window gives you a stable waveform display. Smart peaking envelopes are provided for music monitor. HandDee features makes speaker system frequency response & musical recordings check a snap.
More HandDee than standalone handheld audio RTA.



Features:
Hightlight
  • Waveform, fundamental frequency readout, plus either spectrum analyzer or1/3 octave ISO bar display.
  • Fading reveals trends in waveform and spectrum plots.
  • Transition effect is even better than long persistence phosphor used in oscilloscopes.
  • Pause function for detailed inspection of waveform or spectrum / ISO bar display.


Other Features
  1. Waveform Display features
    • HandDee intelligent display with automatic triggering shows stable sound samples upon receiving stable sound input.
    • HandDee automatic scaling to expand low level sound signal for easy examination.
  2. Digital frequency readout and marking on spectrum
    • HandDee fundamental frequency measurement with overtone rejection.
    • Loudest note display when multiple sounds detected.
    • Accuracy of about 0.5% or 1Hz, 10 times better than Fourier Transform.
  3. Spectrum & ISO bar Display features
    • Grid lines can be turned on or turned off.
    • HandDee musical sound peak power envelop.
    • 1/3 octave ISO bar display.
  4. Analyzer settings
    • Turn on/off grid lines.
    • HandDee preset analysis parameters for frequency and time averaging.
    • 500Hz frequency range for bass characteristic measurement.
    • 4KHz frequency range in monitoring speech, musical performance or recordings.

Demonstration version stops after 1 minute.



Application:
Applications:
  1. PocketPC recording noise identification and removal
    Set TIME AVERAGE to MEDIUM or LONG, FREQ SCALE to LINEAR, select SPECTRUM ANALYZER display, then turn on frequency and dB grid by tapping on the respective bottom icons. Spectral peaks of frequency and amplitude of pocketPC internal sampling noise becomes clear. Tab background noise ubtraction icon. The spectral peaks will disappear.

  2. Plot Hi-Fi or speaker system frequency response profile
    Download and play ¡§Frequency sweep.wma¡¨ Sound Test File in endless loop using Media Player. Feed audio output to speaker system or headphone. Set TIME AVERAGE to SHORT, FREQ RESOLUTION to MEDIUM (for PPC) or SHORT (PPC2002), PEAK PROFILING to CALIBRATE, adjust volume until a large amplitude waveform without peak clipping is shown in the upper screen. In a few seconds, the peaking envelop gives the frequency response profile of the audio system. Select LOG or LINEAR scale to see clearly the low and high frequency response.

  3. Detect persistent noise of audio studio
    Set TIME AVERAGE to LONG and PEAK PROFILING to CALIBRATE. Select SPECTRUM ANALYZER display. Switch between LOG freq scale to detect hums and LINEAR freq scale to discover buzz noise. When suspect noise is found, move the PocketPC around to find the location of maximum noise amplitude where the source of noise is. Take readings of the noise amplitude, remove suspect noise source and see whether the noise amplitude has reduced.

  4. Setting up for vocal training
    Set TIME AVERAGE to SHORT or MEDIUM and FREQ RESOLUTION to NARROW or MEDIUM. Select SPECTROGRAM display. Keep quiet and tab on the noise subtraction icon to remove internal sampling noise that clutters the spectrogram. Then sing at the loudest level and tab the Auto sB range setting icon.

  5. Setting up for music enjoyment
    Play your favorite music using Media Player or other audio players. Start HandDee Spectrum Analyzer. Set PEAK PROFILING to MUSIC. Select SPECTRUM ANALYZER display. The PocketPC becomes a Hi-Fi with real-time spectrum analyzer. Alternatively, you can play music from your computer or Hi-Fi and the PocketPC becomes a signal monitor.
