I just saw acoustitape advertised. It's a tape measure for wavelengths, used for troubleshooting. I've never seen anything like this before. Is it a common tool that I was just unaware of?

That's the only tape measure I've seen that's calibrated in frequency, correlated with wavelengths at the speed of sound.

However, it's just a convenience (albeit a pretty cool one) because all sound professionals understand the significance of interference from adjacent sound sources and self-interference caused by boundaries. The distance between sound sources and reflections determines the frequencies that are impacted. It's pretty much acoustics 101.
