More Gear Means More Need for Sonic Analysis
As more creators gain access to analog equipment, a new challenge emerges: accurately understanding what your gear actually sounds like.
Every analog device has unique acoustic characteristics. Even identical models can differ based on manufacturing date, component aging, and condition. This individuality is both the appeal of analog sound and a practical challenge for production.
What SonicDNA Collector Solves
SonicDNA Collector uses your iPhone to measure and record the frequency response of your analog gear.
Quantify Individual Differences
Visualize the unique acoustic fingerprint of each piece of gear with graphs and data. Capture the subtle differences caused by manufacturing variations, component aging, and overall condition as objective measurements.
Objective Evaluation for Used Gear Trading
As the market expands, so does used gear trading. SonicDNA Collector measurements serve as objective proof of a device's acoustic condition. Back up "it sounds great" with verifiable data.
Collection Management
Build a database of every piece of gear you own. Make data-driven decisions about which equipment best fits each production.
