Overview
Voxengo Span for Mac is a free real-time “fast Fourier transform” audio spectrum analyzer AAX, AudioUnit, and VST plugin for professional sound and music production applications. For the most part, it was derived from Voxengo GlissEQ dynamic parametric equalizer and reproduces its spectrum analysis functionality.
It provides you with a very flexible “mode” system which you can use to set up your spectrum analyzer preferences. You may specify Fourier block size in samples, FFT window overlap percentage, spectrum's visual slope. Besides that, you can choose to display the secondary spectrum of the desired type (e.g. real-time maximum, all-time maximum). Spectrum can be smoothed out visually for an easier examination.
It supports multi-channel analysis and can be set to display spectrums from two different channels or channel groups at the same time. Spectrum's color can be chosen to taste.
Voxengo Span for macOS also features output level metering with adjustable ballistics and integration time, K-system metering (including calibration K-system metering). Voxengo Span for Mac displays level metering statistics, headroom estimation, and clipping detection. Correlation metering is available as well.
