I have attached an oscillator (like cycle~, tri~, rect~, saw~) to scope~.

Is it possible to make scope~ output a non-moving picture of a full cycle of the waveform no matter what the frequency is?

I would like to compare waveforms more easily so I don't have to extract the audio each time to an extern editor to zoom in on the waveform.

Looking for a solution too... Found this on the forum but...

I found the solution, it's in the attributes of the scope object. Change the trigger setting, and there you have it.

ha yesss. maybe it's new. I've never noticed that feature... thx.

but it doesn't give a solution for high freq.

maybe using jitter or plot...
I'll check it asap...


Trigger isn't very new, it seems to be very unknown though.

The individual samples of e.g. a sine with a high frequency have very varying values if the frequency is in a non-integer relation to the sampling rate. Therefore the trigger value is exceeded at (more) different phases per cycle.

Someone correct me if i'm wrong or inaccurate please.

For very high frequencies it can't quite work.

if you want to seriously inspect a waveform at high frequencies, I'd recommend plot (also since you can see the individual samples as a lolly-pop graph). You might consider upsampling too.
