SignalScope XM 13 Is a Free Upgrade for Existing Users

SignalScope XM 13 Is Available Now Version 13 represents a major upgrade, matching the tools and features of the recently released SignalScope X 13. The major difference between the 2 apps is that SignalScope XM is a Mac-only application that can be downloaded outside Apple’s App Store directly from FaberAcoustical.com. Despite the significant upgrades to SignalScope XM 13, existing version 12 licenses work in the new version as well as the old, which makes this a free upgrade for current license holders. Why Choose SignalScope XM vs SignalScope X? SignalScope XM provides a Mac-only perpetual license solution for individuals, schools, and businesses at a reduced cost compared to SignalScope X’s cross-platform licenses. App downloads and license purchases can be made […]

Measured: iPhone 17 Pro microphone frequency response and directivity

Frequency Response I measured the frequency response of the iPhone 17 Pro microphone by positioning a lab-grade reference microphone (PCB model 378B02) approximately 1mm away from the phone (facing the mic) in our anechoic chamber. The reference mic was connected directly to input 1 of a model 485B39 dual channel USB interface. The iPhone microphone signal was routed directly to a USB-C to 3.5mm headphone adapter using SignalScope’s audio play through function (with measurement mode enabled) and from there to input 2 of the 485B39. The response between the 2 microphones was measured with SignalScope’s Dual FFT Analyzer (on a Mac) with the microphones facing toward and away from a loudspeaker which was generating a swept sine excitation signal. The […]

Measured: iPhone 15 Pro Max microphone frequency response and directivity

In the early days of the iPhone app store, I posted frequency response measurements of some iPhone microphones, including before and after certain iOS updates. This post represents the beginning of a new effort to measure the performance characteristics of iPhone microphones. Similar to the recent post on the Vision Pro microphone, two important metrics will be frequency response (magnitude) as well as the directional response of the primary (bottom) iPhone microphone. Frequency Response In order to measure the frequency response of the iPhone’s microphone, a lab-grade reference microphone (PCB model 378B02 1/2-inch pre-polarized free-field condenser microphone) was positioned facing the iPhone mic approximately 1 mm away from it. The speaker was behind the PCB mic, facing the iPhone. Both […]
