Although I already listed some options for getting line-level audio into an iPhone or iPod touch, that list didn’t include much information that would suggest which option would be best. One important metric that people frequency ask about is frequency response. Well, I finally have some frequency response comparisons available to help answer that question. These measurements were made of various dock connector devices, attached to an iPhone 3GS. As in other frequency response measurements, the audio was routed through the iPhone, with a little help from SignalScope Pro. This means that each measurement includes the frequency response of the iPhone 3GS headphone output. The tested devices include: Tunewear Stereo Sound Recorder for iPod Alesis ProTrack Griffin iTalk Pro MacAlly […]

People often ask about the frequency response of iPhone and iPod touch audio inputs. To shed some light on the issue, I made some frequency response measurements of the iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, and iPod touch 2G with Electroacoustics Toolbox and an Edirol FA-101 audio interface. These measurements are broken into two groups, one for headset input and one for dock connector input. Since measurements were made by routing audio through each iPhone OS device (by way of the Audio Play Through function built-in to SignalScope/Pro), all measurements include the frequency response of the headphone output in addition to the response of the selected input. The frequency response of the Edirol FA-101 was removed from the measurement, using a […]
