Real-time audio spectrum analyzer

See which frequencies are present in a sound. Whistle, sing or play an instrument and watch the bars and the peak frequency.

How an FFT analyser works

A Fast Fourier Transform splits a short block of audio into frequency bins.

Finding hum and feedback

A steady peak at 50 or 60 Hz (and multiples) is mains hum.

Microphone limits

Laptop mics filter bass and apply processing; we turn off echo cancellation and noise suppression where the browser allows.

How to test

How to Use the
Spectrum Analyzer

  1. 01

    Start

    allow microphone access.

  2. 02

    Make sound

    speak, whistle or play a tone.

  3. 03

    Read

    bars show level per frequency band; the peak shows the strongest frequency.

  4. 04

    Analyse

    use it to find hum, feedback or resonances.

How an FFT analyser works

A Fast Fourier Transform splits a short block of audio into frequency bins. We use 2048 samples and logarithmic band grouping.

Finding hum and feedback

A steady peak at 50 or 60 Hz (and multiples) is mains hum. A sharp peak that grows during feedback shows the frequency to cut.

Microphone limits

Laptop mics filter bass and apply processing; we turn off echo cancellation and noise suppression where the browser allows.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q.Can it analyse system audio?

Only via a loopback device.

Q.Why no bars below 50 Hz?

Most built-in mics filter deep bass.

Q.Is it accurate?

Frequency is accurate; level is relative.
