Short: The AMIGA audio analyzer
Author: Smack/Infect! (Michael Henke)
Type: mus/misc
#features
-realtime (50fps) analyzer displays:
-oscilloscope + spectrum analyzer
-spectrogram (a.k.a. 'waterfall plot')
-full source code included
#requirements
-AGA chipset
-CPU 68020+
-FPU 68881/2 or 68040/060
-sound sampler (8bit, parallel port)
-15kHz-capable monitor (for PAL video output)
-tested configurations:
-A1200, 68030+882 @ 40MHz, 16MB (yes, this is fast enough!)
-A1200, 68060 @ 50MHz, 48MB (works well...)

#what's this program good for?
scope_xt4 is some kind of tech-toy. I like to run it on my good old
A1200 when I listen to music, just for the visual effect.
#how to use it
plug in your sound sampler, turn on the music and launch the program.
some keyboard functions are also displayed on the status panel:
-F1- screen 1: oscilloscope + spectrum analyzer
-F2- screen 2: spectrogram
-Q- FFT window function: rectangle
-W- FFT window function: Hamming
-E- FFT window function: Hanning
-R- FFT window function: triangle
-T- FFT window function: Blackman
-1- frequency range: 12 kHz
-2- frequency range: 6 kHz
-3- frequency range: 3 kHz
-A- intensity scale: logarithmic
-S- intensity scale: linear
-8- audio output: on
-9- audio output: off
and then there are some more keyboard functions:
-Del- test mode (built-in synthetic samples)
-F4- oscilloscope on/off
-F5- spectrum analyzer on/off
-F9- show CPU idle
-F10- freeze display
-Esc- quit
#the analyzer displays
-oscilloscope (time-amplitude plot)
horizontal: time (range 20ms, resolution 40µs)
vertical: amplitude (-128...+127)
-spectrum analyzer (frequency-intensity plot)
horizontal: frequency (range -1-, -2- or -3-)
vertical: intensity (0...127)
-spectrogram (frequency-time-intensity plot)
horizontal: frequency (range -1-, -2- or -3-)
vertical: time (range 4.8s, resolution 20ms)
brightness: intensity (0...255)
#a few technical details
-sampling and playback are performed at a rate of about 25200Hz
by using a level4 hardware interrupt (no cia timers used).
-the spectrum analyzer provides 250 frequency channels. compare that
to the usual hifi equipment - there you can get analyzers with seven
channels, sometimes even more - wow!
-the code is optimized for 68030 machines (because I've got one), it
will still perform very well on faster CPUs (68040 or 68060).
-recently I figured out how the intensity scaling of the FFT routine
can be done faster and more accurate using the FPU.
