Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How does this visualizer capture sound, and is my microphone audio sent to any server?
The visualizer uses your browser's Web Audio API. It captures audio from your microphone locally and processes it directly on your device using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithms. Your audio is never sent to any server, guaranteeing complete privacy.
What is the difference between the Oscilloscope and Spectrum views?
The Oscilloscope (Time Domain) displays raw audio waves showing amplitude variations over time. The Spectrum (Frequency Domain) uses FFT to decompose the sound waves into distinct frequency bins, showing the strength of bass, mid-tones, and treble.
What is a Decibel (dB), and how does the dB meter measure sound loudness?
A Decibel (dB) is a logarithmic unit used to express the ratio of sound pressure relative to a reference level. Our decibel meter estimates loudness based on the amplitude of the digital audio input signals (dBFS), where 0 dBFS is the maximum digital limit.
Why does the visualizer show different patterns for high-pitched vs low-pitched sounds?
Low-pitched sounds (bass) have long wavelengths and lower frequencies, which activate the left side of the frequency spectrum. High-pitched sounds (treble) have short wavelengths and higher frequencies, displaying spikes on the right side.
Can I use this tool to measure the exact calibrated noise level of a room?
No. Consumer microphones (especially built-in laptop or phone mics) have uncalibrated frequency responses and automatic gain controls (AGC). This tool provides a relative estimation for visualization purposes, not professional SPL measurements.
