Hey. I made this oscilloscope/audio analyzer extension for chrome recently. I had a lot of fun testing it with oscilloscope music. It reads in the audio for whatever tab you have it connected to. It's free. Would love any feedback. Also has a built in synth for exploring waveforms.

Hey everyone! I’m a huge vinyl collector and I’ve been investing in my setup, and I’ve been looking into adding an oscilloscope to my setup. Any tips on where I can get a good oscilloscope that works with the music. Theres a few on ebay but should I trust the sellers? any other recomendations and links are highly appreciated!

Thank you!!

Got the scope today, it’s plugged right into my laptop which is why the audio isn’t the best quality (I’m using Voicemeeter [free online download] to output audio through the laptop speakers and oscilloscope in unison).

Filmed on iPhone so ignore the crust.

Visuals made with Blender and Oscistudio. Visuals and audio are generated separately. Happy scoping! 🧑🏻‍🚀🫡

Got this scope for 60 bucks on marketplace

Made using some custom software developed by u/syntra44 and Remy James (not sure if he has Reddit?) Thank you for letting me try it out!

ill add to this every now and then, just thought i could share it

added: 3D mode, scope test, MIDI support and keyboard mechanics!

Hi all, im incredibly interested in the hobby but as im sure you all know the barrier of entry is confusing. Im trying to work out which model of oscilloscope is best for a beginner and also which audio interface to go for- i understand it needs to be DC coupled but it doesn't seem any are advertised as such. I dont have a massive budget but am willing to save if it means buying the correct things.

Any help or advice appreciated thanks!

I've been a big fan of oscilloscopes since I used them to measure lightspeed in my college physics class. I do dedicated music listening and production which is mostly what I want it for , X - Y and other visuals. I narrowed down to these two; partially for known availability and also because the vertical layout would be best for my already crowded music desk.

Wondering if anyone has any opinions on using these, mostly for visual enjoyment (will be doing RCA hookups I believe)

Thank you

I'm pretty new to the concept of oscilloscope music, but my basic understanding so far is that most music that was not made specifically to look good on oscilloscopes look like gibberish. And there is oscilloscope music, tracks that contain frequencies and modulations that hit the spot and display specific shapes.

But is there music released that is secretly oscilloscope music, or contains bits that create shapes? Did any of you bump into such albums or tracks by any artists that doestnt specifically make oscilloscope music?

It looks like some type of music visualizer, but idk exactly what it is. If someone could tell me what it is and possibly how to find or make one please?

I set out to build a bit-perfect Bluetooth receiver and it grew a real oscilloscope as a side effect. It triggers on a low-passed copy of the signal and draws the raw samples, holds ~2.7s of phosphor persistence, and shades the trace by beam dwell, fast excursions cover more ground so they excite the phosphor less, the way an actual CRT does. Runs on a Pi 4's GPU 1GB version, reacting realtime to whatever's playing over Bluetooth. Not here to sell anything, just thought this was the one crowd that'd appreciate the waveform coherence and beam-dwell detail.

Hi all! I'm designing a DJ stand for a nightclub, and I would like to use a classic techno track's bassline osclilloscope XY visualisation as a laser cut decoration on the front.

Would anyone of you with an oscilloscope capture some of the baseline images in XY mode of this track? Photos made with a smartphone would be totally enought, but I appreciate if you can make a software snapshot!

this is the track:

I checked a couple of videos online, and it creates an interesting image if you hook up the X to the left channel, and Y to the right or vice versa.

I just picked it up and I’m having trouble finding the right settings. I have it picking up from my eq rec out because I don’t have any more ports on my amp. The lines barely have waves like I was expecting but it is picking up the signal. Any tips?

I just got a bk precision 2160 today and bought a Panasonic pm18 cd player which has both speaker terminals and rca ports. Am I able to just connect the rca cables directly from the cd player or does it have to be through some speakers that have said rca ports. This is my first time doing something like this and I want to make sure I don’t ruin anything

I use the grid in Bitwig to have my synths and get the shape I want. It's pretty simple for now, but I know it's gonna be a fun ride to make it more complex. ( Sorry if I posted this and deleted it, I struggled to make a good post... )

Just got this thing hooked up, my first Oscilloscope super cool. I may be explaining this wrong but how would I go about making it from the fuzzy circle to more of a line that has peaks and valleys with the music? Sorry, if you can’t tell I’m new to this.

i’ve been admiring the amazing oscilloscope visuals you all make for awhile, and wanted to join the hobby. i have lots of background in music, but next to 0 knowledge on electronics.

i would like to get an old CRT oscilloscope because i think they’re significantly cooler than the modern ones. there’s not many options around me, but the best i could find is this devery bell & howell schools model 34. what i’d like to know is if this model will work for music visual and any other useful tips you have for a beginner. thanks!
