I am getting pretty close to starting a small prototype series, with mechanics included.
I want one. Really. Since post 307.
$1400 for RME
-RNM
What software like WaveSpectra/SpectraPlus/etc. can work at 768? I need something to test.
HpW-Works... 😀 using ASIO / WASAPI Exclusive all 100% bit interfaces 😀

Great!
12h total operation time - is OK, but 14 days evaluation period is a little bit terrible.
In any case thanks, I'll use it when I will be ready.

Can you introduce HpW a bit more?
How does it compare to other sound card based realtime analyzer software available on the Internet? In particular, any advantages for using HpW instead of other sw?
Excuse me if other people find these questions a bit OT.
Can you introduce HpW a bit more?
Information given in the Vendors Bazaar, while I would like not to break DIYAUDIO law's.

Otherwise drop a PM or please use the related support contact..

The "thingmabob" is that the RME unit or my Audio Analyzer?
The JensStation of cause.
Phantom power would be nice, but that can be arranged with a separate preamp.
Phantom power will not be available. The sensitivity etc. should be OK for use with a microphone, but it is designed as a piece of test equipment. An external phantom power supply can of course be used if you want to use it with a condenser microphone.
Hi Jens, Im interested too. but it s all about how much it will cost of course, let us know.
would you provide any accessory or mean to measure low impedance like voltage reg or amp output?

I assume that this can be done by using a suitable external resistor and perhaps a capacitor in combination with the right analyzer SW. It is not something I expect to provide as an accessory.
Hi all,
Let's keep the design to it's core applications as Jens set out to design. Anything extra adds design time, complexity and cost.

Hi and sorry to jump in with some questions to understand better.
I surfed the thread but i could not see measurements.
Are you still working on the first prototype ?
Moreover will this analyzer also work as an high quality usb audio interface ? that would widen the market immensely i guess.
Thanks a lot for the project.
Kind regards, gino
Hi ginetto61,
There are some measurements, but they are spread around the thread.
Some of the initial measurements you can find from post #22 to post #48. Other measurements are presented in these posts:
#129
#162
#246
#279
#362
I have used the prototype now and then to make measurements on different systems. But it has been a while since I have made measurements to check the performance of the Audio Analyzer itself. I am concentrating on getting the design finished. And I am actually fairly close to finishing the PCB designs (5 PCB's). Some mechanical design choices are still being worked on as well.
It would work as a high quality USB audio interface. But it might be overkill for some applications in this area. It is built as an Audio Analyzer. In some areas simpler and cheaper solutions could have been chosen if the purpose was "just" to record or play back audio.

It is a good news to us that the project is kept going.
I am looking forward to the final product.

Hi ! thanks a lot indeed for the very kind and valuable reply.
I will study the posts you mention.
However i would not discount the opportunity to market it in the professional audio sector. It could be a huge success.
Everybody needs a great AD/DA converter with usb connection (without preamps, just line level inputs).
I will follow the thread with the biggest interest.
Good luck with your excellent project.
Kind regards, gino
