And another question again sorry, you said it’s able to hook up directly to the cd player through the adapter + rca cable, so it will be able show music frequency’s and etc?

Everyone's setup will be slightly different. A common output for cd players is a 3.5mm aka 1/8in cable. Assuming that is what your situation is, a 1/8in to stereo RCA splitter would work. You would also need an RCA to BNC adapter to get the RCA cables to connect to the scopes BNC inputs.

@@ericlennartson Thanks for the reply,This will help a lot, since this video wasn’t released recently!!

Most of these shorts are one off demos as I build out my patches. I don't have the files anymore unfortunately.

@ unfortunate, but thank you for the reply 🙏

i knew this would be the first thing i saw down here lmao

@@tracelawson1367 100%. When I perform, I use my 4x4 audio interface to give me 2 copies of the sound. 1 copy for the scope, and 1 copy for the speakers. If you have an audio interface with more outputs, you can get more copies. If you had a 2x6 for example, you would have 3 copies, giving you 1 for a set of speakers and 2 scopes.

yes, i do that with a mono amplifier and a single speaker, i do a "mix to mono" network that is just two resistors of like 10 kiloohms that connect to the inner conductors of the audio cables and then the two resistors at the other side of em join in one point and go to the amplifier ("Y" connection), ground is all common and not connected to the network... alternatively you can simply tap onto the two inner conductors of the RCAs and put a stereo amplifier with two speakers

I'm not entirely sure what your setup is, so it's a little tough for me to say exactly. The sound needs to be dc coupled all the way through the signal chain; or at the very least from the point in which an offset is desired. So for a preamp, if the signal going into it is dc coupled, and the preamp itself is also dc coupled, then it should work. Generally speaking, for most musical uses having a dc offset is not desirable, so finding equipment that allows for this can be tricky to find sometimes. You don't necessarily need a dc coupled signal for all oscilloscope music though. There's plenty of cool things you can do without one. I'd take your preamp, plug it in, and see what happens. It might look cool already!

@@Bikes-with-Ben Thank you for the kind words!

Trying to troubleshoot from the yt comments section is always tricky, but I'll do my best. The first thing that comes to mind is that there may be a high pass filter somewhere in your audio chain. (this is basically all AC coupling really is.) I'd start from the beginning of the chain and slowly step through it, looking for any settings that may be in your software to disable anything that is modifying the audio. I'm unsure of the OS being used, or how the audio is being routed, but I do believe it's possible to play a file directly from the "Oscilloscope!" app. If it's still got issues when playing directly from the app, then there may be an issue with the audio file itself. The other thing to check is that a hifi lossless audio file is being used. (Something like a .wav). Other lossy file types will compress the data and have pretty heavy impact on the image. You can't just convert an mp3 into a wav either, since once the data has been compressed, you can't recover it. (thus we call it a lossy file type). Troubleshooting can be frustrating, but there's plenty of friendly people in these communities, you can also ask for help! forum.oscilloscopemusic.com www.reddit.com/r/oscilloscopemusic/ discord.com/invite/wJY7cRbwyz

The title is just for fun! I did use 10 million Hz though. Though, It's impossible to perceive, and speakers aren't really meant to produce those frequencies anyways, since we can't hear them.

The audio interface is connected to your computer. It's what allows you to get the sounds from your computer into the scope.

I have never personally done the vectrex mod, but here's a link to a guide that walks you through it. It's more or less a similar set up once you've modded the vectrex; use an audio interface to send a dc coupled audio signal from your computer to the vectrex. users.sussex.ac.uk/~ad207/adweb/assets/vectrexminijackinputmod2014.pdf

yeah, it's called the hilbert curve

Correct, you'll need two channels. One for x and another for y. You'll also need the scope to have an xy or lissajous mode. Here's a video I made that goes into more detail. th-cam.com/video/1YdpCH9v5Kk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HLvk49LsQ__r6LyU

Thank you!
