datalog decibels?

Post by edgedj »

Does anyone know if this is possible via software at present or do I need to hook in a generic decibel microphone and datalog the DC output thereof? I have a particularly noisy kit car which I'd like to quieten by performing measurable tests.

Cheers

You can't really at this time.
MS3 firmware supports recording to the SD card as stream data, but there is no extraction method yet.
It is also on the ToDo list for TS to log from a microphone, big todo list :(

It's already fantastic software, please don't apologise. I build software for a living and appreciate the effort and intellectual expertise in what you've built already :)

I figured it wasn't yet possible to do this so I've ordered a cheap decibel meter from Ebay which outputs 0-1.3v DC which I plan on connecting through MS3X and data logging that way, should work I think?
