#### Calibration tone synthesizer and FFT THD, SNR & crosstalk audio analyzer

Audio Signal and Distortion Analyzer is a desktop acoustic measurement, calibration tone
generator, and harmonic spectrum workbench for Linux.
A lightweight Linux alternative to RightMark Audio Analyzer for evaluating audio files,
loopback captures, and codec fidelity with precision spectral metrics.

Key Features:

* Precision Calibration WAV Synthesizer: Generates bit-exact 16-bit and 24-bit PCM WAV
  calibration signals at 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, and 96 kHz including 1 kHz reference sine,
  60 Hz + 7 kHz SMPTE twin-tone IMD, 20 Hz to 20 kHz logarithmic sweep, white noise,
  and dual-channel stereo crosstalk test probes.
* Multi-Format Audio Decoding: Reads uncompressed PCM WAV directly and decodes FLAC, MP3,
  Ogg Vorbis, Opus, AAC, and M4A audio files via bundled FFmpeg into floating-point frames.
* Windowed Radix-2 FFT Distortion Metrics: Applies a 4-term Blackman-Harris window with
  Welch spectral averaging to compute Total Harmonic Distortion (THD % and dB), THD+N (dB),
  Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR dB), Dynamic Range, Peak and RMS dBFS, Crest Factor, DC Offset,
  and Stereo Crosstalk (dB).
* Harmonic Spectrum Plot & Lab Reports: Renders an interactive logarithmic frequency
  spectrum with H1 through H10 harmonic markers and exports HTML, CSV, and JSON lab reports.

## Enable snaps on Ubuntu and install Audio Signal and Distortion Analyzer

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

If you’re running [Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://www.ubuntu.com/) or later, including [Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features) and [Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FocalFossa/ReleaseNotes), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.

For versions of Ubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseNotes), as well as Ubuntu flavours that don’t include *snap* by default, *snap* can be installed from the Ubuntu Software Centre by searching for *snapd*.

Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line:

```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
