SCOPE

Edit this page Edit on GitHubDescribe a problem

Draws an XY trace from audio, internal generators, or manual values, with adjustable persistence.

Parameter Control Notes
X Source / Y Source Selector Manual, Audio L, Audio R, Generator A, or Generator B, independently per axis.
X / Y Trough Manual axis value; only live when its Source is Manual.
X Scale / Y Scale Trough Axis gain, 0 to 2, default 1. Shown for Audio and Generator sources. Can correct trace proportions on a non-square canvas.
Blend / Mix Selector, Trough Same blend-mode family every other module uses (Replace, Add, etc.) plus a 0-1 Mix amount, applied to the composited trace+backdrop result.
Persistence Trough Per-second exponential decay of the phosphor trace.
Brightness / Width Trough Line width in line mode; also sizes points when Points Only is on.
Points Only Rocker Renders each frame’s beam position as a discrete point-glow instead of a connected line between positions.
Detail Trough Beam segments drawn per frame; hidden (and has no effect) when both axes are Manual.
Generator A / Generator B Selector, Trough Wave (Sine, Square, Sawtooth, Triangle, S+H, and the same 6 noise waves LFO offers), Freq, Phase, Amp. Square adds Duty, the share of each cycle spent high (1-99%, default 50). S+H jumps to a new random level once per cycle, with no glide. Seed picks the random sequence for S+H and the noise waves; the noise waves also add Harmonics/Spread/Gain/Density.
Reset Generators Button Synchronizes Generator A/B phases, restarts S+H’s sequence, and clears the trace. Shown when a generator drives either axis.

Insert FX on SCOPE applies to the full composited result, backdrop and phosphor trace together, not the trace alone. The effects see it over black; areas they leave dark stay empty. See Insert FX Chains.
