Hello,
I have done a code to obtain the FFT of an audio recorded with Matlab. I'm getting my result in amplitude but I'd like to get it in dB in the frequency domain... Could someone please help me?
Here is my code and my curves:

Thank you for your help.

Here is a popular MATLAB doc page that explains the relationship between FFT and true power spectra: Power Spectral Density Estimates Using FFT. Use this to scale the FFT to obtain true power values.

Hii Jacques,
I understand you want to plot the data in db.
Kindly look into the code given below, it should solve your problem:-
Fs = 16000; % Sampling rate (Hz)
Channels = 1; % Number of audio channels
bits = 16; % Number of bits per sample
r = audiorecorder(Fs, bits, Channels);
duration = 10;
disp('Recording started');
recordblocking(r, duration);
disp('Recording stopped');
X = getaudiodata(r);
N = length(X);
f = (0:N/2) * (Fs/N);
t = (0:N-1) / Fs;
subplot(2,1,1);
plot(t, X);
xlabel('Time (s)');
ylabel('Amplitude');
title('Time Domain Plot');
Y = fft(X, N);
Y = abs(Y(1:N/2+1));
fftResult_dB = 20 * log10(Y); % covert into dB
subplot(2,1,2);
plot(f, fftResult_dB);
xlabel('Frequency (Hz)');
ylabel('Amplitude (dB)');
title('Frequency Domain Plot');
xlim([0, Fs/2]);
grid on;
Hope this helps!
