Reliable
The confirmed path, settings, headroom and correlation support this local estimate.
Advanced local measurement
Electrical loopback test.
Measure a confirmed electrical return path only after the browser has assessed whether it can support each metric honestly.
Measurement preflight
Confirm the path before the number.
Use a physical electrical output-to-input connection, not a speaker and microphone in a room. WaveLocus will capture the return locally, correlate it with a known chirp and withhold invalid metrics.
- Connect an output directly to an input.Use suitable attenuation and keep monitor volume low. Do not route headphone or line output directly to an input that cannot accept it.
- Select the returning input.Browser labels become available after permission is granted.
- Confirm the path and run the preflight.Each run repeats the same local stimulus to estimate variation.
StatusConnect an electrical output to an input, then request the selected input.
No measurement yet
Metrics stay withheld until preflight.
The result panel will not show a latency, level or polarity number until a local preflight produces a corresponding eligibility decision.
Reading the result
Eligibility comes first.
Limited
A result is available, but processing state or signal confidence warrants caution.
Unavailable or invalid
Unsupported channels, unconfirmed paths, clipping or weak correlation withhold the metric.
