options for jitter oscilloscope
i'm looking to see if anyone knows of a jitter-based oscilloscope? i like scope~ but i want to get the lines to look a little fatter and act looser as well. from what i can tell i can just get rid of the grid and change the colour of the line.
the jit.catch in max 7 (jitter... audio viz) example is nice, but it's too much geometry for what i need. unless it could be fixed up to act more like scope~?
You might take a look at the LFO from the Ableton Max Essentials (if you're an Ableton user, that is).
It's a nice anti-aliased Open GL Display which can be easily adapted.
this is a really good starting place. i do need a bit of help customizing it for my project though.
1. there is some sort of lag, or something isn't taking when i switch my signal between cycle and phasor. i'm wondering if jit.catch was the right place to send the signal.
2. it looks proper at low frequencies (because that's what it was designed for), but anything higher and the scale doesn't follow and it starts to look like a waveform.
3. how do i change the background?
4. how do i send this to the window object so it can be displayed full screen?
Regarding 1, this switch only refreshes audio when you toggle it, a selector~ is better. Regarding 4, a dash was missing in the jit.window object.
I wrote a couple of jitter-based scope~ replacements several years ago, might be something to look at here?

ok i'm moving along here, got a full screen scope. but it's a little flickery, unlike the original scope that i copied out of the max essentials lfo. any suggestions on how to smooth this signal out?
thanks for the pointer graham, it's a great scope, but going to be a bit hard to customize it closer to what i'm looking for (hard since i am such a jitter newb).
the only hint i've been able to find is that changing the framesize on jit.catch changes a bit of the scope, otherwise i don't know how to smooth visual. it looks sort of aliased and duplicated.
