*** Breaking News! ***

Decibel was featured in the BBC show Panorama - The World's longest running investigative TV show on April 20! The host Quentin Letts use Decibel on his iPhone to measure decibel levels in regards to UK's health and safety regulations. Check it out on http://tinyurl.com/decibelonbbc

*** iPod Touch users! ***

Please note that the iPod Touch doesn't have a built in mic! You will need an iPhone Headset or similar to be able to use Decibel. Most of the bad reviews are due to this fact. So please don't judge Decibel based on that. Thank you!

Description

* Even though we have tested Decibel with professional grade equipment with good results, this application is for recreational use only. iPhone 3G is recommended since it has a better performing microphone than the first generation iPhone.
