Monitoring Multichannel signal
Hi,
wich is the best way to "visualize" a multichannel signal for monitoring purpose? The simultaneous visualization of all the channels separately like in the multichannel signal probe (in photo). Something clear like a live.scope would be the best.
The only object that i found is mc.scope~, but i didn't found a way to visualize the channels separately: appearently seem that the only visualization possible is the simultaneous overlapping of the channels.
I think that i'm missing something, any help would be appreciated.
I tryed to search on the forum but i found almost nothing exept one old post, from where i took the picture.
EDIT: i attach the link of the "MC visualization and probing" page from the Max Documentation
https://docs.cycling74.com/userguide/mc/mc_visualization/
Thanks,
G
[mc.scope] + (displaychan) ?
Hi Sébastien,
thanks for your replay. The displaychan attribute is very useful, but still don't allow the simultaneous visualization of all the channels (or at least a part of them toghether). I'm searching for an object that does the work of the multichannel "meter" (the one that pop up when your cursor step by a multichannel cable) .
mc.meter~ ? maybe is what you are looking for.
if you just need to check modulation across all channels, gridmeter~ might be useful.
I wasn't thinking about mc.meter~, thanks! But still aswer just half of the question (like mc.scope~ but in the other way): simultaneous visualization, but almost no rapresentation of the signal (like live.scope). At least the levels, but i would like to see graphically the floating from 0 to 1 (or other) over time.
Florian thanks for the answer, but i find a bit difficult to understand the meaning of gridmeter~, that i didn't know, but i think it offer overlapping view like the mc.scope~, and just the levels or something similar.
You can also un-pack the mc cable. Though quite heavy for @chans 100 ;-)
Thanks again Sébastien, that seem the best option for the moment! Probabily too heavy at 100, but with @chans 30... at least i can do some momentary monitoring for debugging purpose every now and then..
Still would be interesting understand why exist the MC signal probe (that disappear when you move away the cursor) but no object for this task, or at least for having a simultaneous scope view of the signals. At least would be useful have the possibility to open the probe in a separate window, like the Matrix Probe (i think, i almost don't use jitter).
