White Noise

Characteristics and use

The White Noise test signal has a high spectral density, Gauss-
ian amplitude distribution and a nearly infinite period (> 100
years). White Noise is used for all measurements with FFT
analyzers or where a linear frequency scale is used, and has a
constant signal power per Hertz and a 20 kHz bandwidth.

Parameter

You can define the following parameters for this test signal:

Output level

Polarity

Characteristics and use

The saw-tooth test signal is ideally suited for checking the po-
larity of loudspeakers. The “Minilyzer ML1”, “Acoustilyzer AL1”
and “XL2“instruments from NTi Audio detect this signal and
use it to indicate polarity.

Parameter

You can define the following parameters for this test signal:
