We measure and report. These are the levels we set your figures beside. You can set your own for your gear; they are kept in your account.

Measuring needs a computer with an audio interface; Bluetooth audio isn't supported. Have a look around: everything below is what you'll get on a computer. On a phone you can open your Collection, look up a model, or read a saved calibration.
Open a recording: just the file. Record a side: a turntable and an audio interface.
Record one side from your turntable, then open the recording here. GrooveBench counts the clicks, measures the surface noise and looks for scratches that repeat every turn. Your audio stays on your computer, unless you choose to keep it.
To identify the record, a short fingerprint of it is sent when you're signed in, never the audio itself.
A stereo WAV recording straight from your phono stage, with no effects or noise reduction.
This recording isn't kept anywhere else. Save it to your computer now.
Save this recording to your computer
Your measurements, report and record details are restored. Look them over, then confirm Save to Collection.
Audio stayed on your device. Reselect a local file for playback only; you do not need to measure it again to save this result.
Measure a side first. Naming the record is optional and separate from measuring it.
Type what you know, or leave it blank.
Changes here apply to this result. Edit the record in your Collection to change its saved details.
GrooveBench is not endorsed by or partnered with Discogs.
Playback is local. Measure this side to view its spectrogram.
Click anywhere to listen from there.
Clicks in the lead-in and run-out are not counted.
Teal line: the surface noise in the silent groove. Gray line: the quietest parts of the music.
Two results of one side, before and after cleaning, say, or the same side of two records. Measured side by side and played A/B.
Compare doesn't look for skips. Measure each result on its own to see where it skipped.
Save it with your record to compare it with earlier results. Saving results is for founding members during the beta. This demo ends after 24 hours, and everything in it is deleted within a day after that. Saving keeps the measurements in your account, not the audio. Measured with today's version. Keep the audio too, to measure it again later.
Kept with this result. Leave blank if you don't know.
Your audio stays on this device unless you choose to keep it. To identify the record, a short fingerprint of it is sent when you're signed in, never the audio itself.

TOOL / CAPTURE FOLDER
A tool for filing a corpus of recordings that arrive as files. One folder on this machine holds them; nothing here is uploaded, and nothing outside that folder is read or written. Filed recordings are read under their record in the Collection, not here.
What has been filed is shown under its record in the Collection - a record and its recordings.
