Muddy sound when playing, now.

In my case, open app, play music, watch for offending peaks in the frequency spectrum, reduce those frequencies at the amp or board. I get immediate improved results.
Hmmmm,... how I do use this app?

I just have a command prompt with no indication of what to type and nothing that I can click on (that I can see) that can start the process of examining audio.
 
You probably have GNU Octave (icon is a colored 3D plot). That's a mathematics package / programming language, and not the same app Lyckydog mentioned.
You're correct!

I do have an iPad but was trying to do this with my Samsung S3. I'll just get the iPad and do it that way since I see that this particular RTA hasn't been converted to Android.

I'm really intrigued with the idea of bass traps. The problem is that I'm not handy and the pro stuff costs hundreds, even thousands. Another handicap is that the room is only 9' wide and has a ceiling that is 6'7" high. :(
