A long time ago on this list, I was asking about oscilloscopes. I like to
use oscilloscopes for not only looking at waveforms, but analyzing for
harmonic content. (E.g., when you want to build a scale to a timbre, or fit
a timbre to a scale, etc.) Finally there is a stand-alone oscilloscope
that works for me, and it's really cheap. It runs independently, so you
don't need to put it into your VST host. Analyzes any audio output. Can
save data to text files, etc.

Thanks, Rick.

I would have mentioned it by now if I hadn't had problems with my Yahoo
account (I have had to revert to my old email address).

Midicode Oscilloscope / Analyser provides an oscilloscope style output
trace from any Windows sound source and a spectrum analysis of that
signal. It is intended to provide harmonic analysis of musical signals.

The program includes a storage feature to capture up to 5 minutes
of audio then analyse the stored signal. You can listen to the stored
signal in its entirety or any portion of it. There are facilities to find
zero crossing points to create sample loops which can then be
written to file.

The time base is continuously variable on a sample by sample basis
from 5 milliseconds to 200 milliseconds. Sample rates up to 96 KHz
are supported. There is a data view for numerical analysis of sample
data.

The price is £9.95 (GBP), less than 20 dollars!
