MeasureLab Operation Manual
This documentation summarizes the operation methods for observing and evaluating audio signals and measurement targets using MeasureLab.
The purpose of this tool is to turn your everyday PC and audio interface into a "high-end measurement instrument," even in environments without specialized equipment (oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer, distortion meter, etc.).
Tip
"MeasureLab" is a "virtual measurement desk" inside your PC. You can arrange the necessary instruments (widgets) on the desk and combine them freely to perform measurements.
How to Read This Manual
- For first-time users: → Read the Quickstart first.
- To use specific features: → Refer to each Widget Guide.
- To see actual measurement examples: → Refer to the Measurement Recipes.
Preparation
Please check the following preparations to start measurements smoothly.
Software Installation
Software must be ready to launch. If you haven't done so or want to know OS-specific notes, see Quick Start: Launching.
Audio Interface (I/O)
While built-in audio functions of the PC can be used, we recommend an external audio interface for serious measurements.
Connection Cables (for Loopback)
We recommend performing an operation check with a "loopback connection," where you output sound from the device and record it back yourself.
- Connect a 3.5mm or 6.3mm standard plug cable from the output (OUT) to the input (IN).
