HouseCurve

I used the app for a while but suddenly the airplay interface stopped working with airplay versions 1 and 2. I don’t know why but I can’t measure any sound at the moment.

I was able to use an external Dayton OmniMic (USB mic) plugged into my iPhone USB-C port. Also could read in the OmniMic calibration file, which is a huge bonus. Generated a 10-stage parametric EQ and loaded into the WIIM app. I’ve got fairly high-end speakers so I focused the tuning on the low-end (bass). Sounds great! Is there a way to use this over (wired) CarPlay? It seems to default to the crappy car mic since the USB-C port is in use, and it would be better to use the internal iPhone mic since it’s compensated. Overall great app!!

Much easier than buying a mic of fiddling with REW. App is simple but gets the job done well, documentation by the developer is excellent. Multiple measurements and parametric EQ customization works well, I needed to lower the gain maximum and it recalculated a new PEQ for me. Exported my EQ settings directly into EqualizerAPO and it worked perfectly, and my results passed a blind test as a noticeable improvement! Great app, looking forward to further developer support and updates!

I found out about HouseCurve through an online audio forum I frequent, through a post from the creator and using info from there, and the apps website, I was able to get my Hi-Fi Speaker Setup sounding a heck of a lot better! It’s not pure night and day, but it’s enough of a difference to appreciate a tool like this. Plus with it being as cheap as it is, even with the added $10 purchase, there’s practically no reason to hate this app!

This should be part of the intro, I’ve done some audio recording with an iPhone as a USB mic. They have excellent mics BUT you must remove your case, I tested my recordings with and without my slim simple case and the results were very audible. I also found the back omnidirectional mic sounded the best. This app seems perfect for my simple uses cases, I’ll probably buy it. The interface is a little cumbersome and limited, hopefully that’s just the free version tho.

Leap works. I mean it using the mic and our phones so I’m not sure how effective it will be, but I just downloaded it to play around well I can say he must be very careful with this app. Like me, if you have the volume on your phone and equipment up too high when it plays the sweep it blew 59K worth of Martin Logan speakers in my system. And homes so probably should have used a more professional mic, and definitely checked the volume levels. just thought I would throw this out there to others. This is not anything against the app. Other than they should probably put a warning, but more so people don’t play with the volume up too loud.

This can be used with a parametric or graphic equalizer and you don’t have to buy a a microphone….you just use your phone. Buy it, you will love it!

This was exactly what i was looking for! Breathed life into my system

This app gives great information and the tutorials explain everything in detail. It’s so convenient using just my phone. I’ve learned a lot using it and reading the tutorials over the past year. I’ve used it on multiple car and home systems to find proper crossover settings, align phase and integrate subwoofers.

I, like many others, use Roon. This app allows me to perform room correction on my iPad with a test signal routed through Roon. The developer put together some VERY GOOD documentation on how to do this. The results for me were solid. Overall clarity is noticeably better. For Roon users, the app produces a convolution filter that you can directly import, assuming you pay for the in-app $8 bundle purchase that is required. For me, it was well worth it. I found the overall approach MUCH simpler than the common REW + UMIK-1 path that many forums recommend. One slight issue I had was I could not start over from scratch without uninstalling and reinstalling the app. The delete button would not remove all the curves. Could be user error, but the documentation is straightforward on how to do it, and it did not work for me.
