You may mave a look at JAAA, (JACK and ALSA Audio Analyser). This is a
realtime 'technical' (rather than musical) spectrum analyser, designed
to make accurate measurements. It will also generate sines and white
Gaussian noise. It's at

<http://users.skynet.be/solaris/linuxadio>

You will also need some small shared libs available from the same
place.

I'm considering some additional functionality, and if you have any
specific requirements I'd be interested to know.

I am also working on a Room Impulse Response measurement system using
a sine sweep as the stimulus. First release expected in a about two
months.
