I can't believe there isn't already a YouScope thread!
So here it is.
I've been busy harassing, oops, HELPING my body shop guy to finish the Trabant so haven't really had the time to stop in.
But I did come across this little gem: YouScope. YouScope is an audio file that you can feed into a scope set for X-Y mode. It causes a neat "video" to appear on the screen.
Here's me running it on a Tek 2235A

YouScope has been around for a few years now so I'm sure someone else here must have found it.
There's one thing I noticed.... It ties up your computers audio port unless you're clever about playing more than one thing at a time.
I'm not so clever so I tried playing YS on an iPod which gives poor results.
But if one uses Ubuntu to burn the FLAC file direct to an Audio CD and then play it on a Discman.... it works! Audio CDs aren't compressed and have better sound than MP3 players or iPods. The difference can be seen on a scope. Especially if it's playing YouScope.
On an unrelated tangent, here's the Trabi shaping up....
