Compare the saw waveforms with the waveform diagrams in this post. Add Osc 2 to the mix and see how the waveform appears. Now choose different waveforms and see the waveforms being rendered in s(M)exoscope. In Clearsynth, select only Osc 1 and turn off the filter. Now, if you play notes, you’ll be able to see the nature of the waveform. Set the value of the Time knob to around 0.200. Notice the Time knob on the upper left panel. While this is useful in what we’ll be learning about in subsequent tutorials, for now, we need to decrease the display time to see what we’ve learnt so far. The default settings shows how the waveform behaves over a larger period of time. Play some notes on your keyboard, and notice the waveform that appears on the screen. Load it as a VST effect, following Clearsynth. The more you use it, the more you don’t have to use it! ? ) Spending time on this will establish a mental connection between sounds and images, and that’s very useful.
(Well… I’m no expert yet, and I still use it. This was a tool that helped me a lot when I started learning. This is one of the many useful tools that helps you do that. In my previous post, I wrote about the importance of the ability to visualize sounds.
No matter whether you laugh or cringe at the name, it’s a very valuable tool in learning synth programming.

There’s not an awful lot of info available at the moment, apart from a screenshot and the fact that it will also be a free download from the developer’s website.Ħ4-bit s(M)exoscope is available for free download via Armando Montanez (23.2 MB download size, ZIP archive, 32-bit & 64-bit VST/VST3 plugin format for Windows & Mac OS).Before we begin to learn about the envelopes, I highly recommend you download and install this freeware plugin. The plugin will probably also be uploaded to the original product page (on the Smartelectronix website) sometime in the future, but it is only available on Armando’s website at the moment.īy the way, Armando Montanez is also working on another plugin called s(M)asterscope, which expected for release sometime in (hopefully) near future. It is available as a VST and VST3 plugin for use in 32-bit and 64-bit digital audio workstations. The new 64-bit s(M)exoscope can be download completely free of charge from the product page linked below.
This means that it can actually be regarded as a bit of an upgrade, in away, as opposed to a 1:1 cross-platform port. This is absolutely huge news for all s(M)exoscope users (including myself) who haven’t been able to use their favorite oscilloscope plugin in a 64-bit DAW environment.Ĭompared to the original plugin, the new JUCE ported 64-bit version of s(M)exoscope is virtually identical, apart from the fact the it has a somewhat higher frame rate, resulting in a smoother waveform display. Until now, that is.Īrmando Montanez has ported the plugin’s source code to the cross-platform JUCE framework, making it possible to build both 32-bit and 64-bit compatible versions of s(M)exoscope.
