SignalScope X receives a major upgrade with version 12.0, including new tools and features in each tool set.

With version 11.5 of SignalScope X, SignalScope Pro 2020, and SignalScope Advanced 2020, the Data Recorder and Octave Analyzer tools can be started automatically when a user-defined trigger event occurs. The trigger event consists of a single amplitude threshold on a designated trigger channel.

With the release of version 11.4 of SignalScope X, you can more easily generate and analyze signals with DC content, as long as you have compatible hardware with DC-coupled input and/or output channels. The number of audio interfaces with DC-coupled output channels seems to have been growing for some time, although very few interfaces offer DC-coupled inputs.

The UMIK-2 connects to an iPhone or iPad via USB with Apple’s Lightning to USB 3 camera adapter. When it is connected, SoundMeter X will recognize it and prompt you to enter the serial number which is printed on the UMIK’s label. Once the serial number has been entered, SoundMeter X will download the factory-supplied sensitivity information from the web and apply it immediately for factory-calibrated sound level measurements.

If you don’t have a laser tach handy, but you do have an iPhone in your pocket, you can measure the router spindle speed with the FFT analyzer tool in SignalScope X which can ‘listen’ to the router with the iPhone’s built-in microphone.
