Spectrum
Shows which frequencies are in a sound — or acts as a tuner.

How it works
SPECTRUM draws loudness against frequency on a log scale (bass on the left, treble on the right): a sine is one spike, a saw a whole comb of harmonics, noise a broad hill. TUNER detects the pitch of a single note and shows how many cents sharp or flat it is.
