Calibration in S TOOLS-STx

Calibration in S_TOOLS-STx

S_TOOLS-STx can calibrate sound files in one of three ways:

• By associating a sound file with a calibration set. If a calibration signal is available, a calibration set has been calculated and this set has been associated with a sound file or segment.

• On a profile basis, using the calibration parameters in the viewer's profile dialog.

• On a file or segment basis. This can be done by either copying the calibration set values into the file or segment, or by setting the calibration values by hand in the Spectrogram & Parameters Viewer Sectioner.

Calibration signals

A calibration signal is a sound file which contains a known calibration tone.

Calibration sets

A calibration set is a sound file with special segments identifying known calibrated frequencies and amplitudes. See Creating a calibration set for instructions on creating a calibration set.

Calibrated signals

Calibrated signals are signals that are associated with a calibration set.
