MC Visualization and Probing

Multichannel signals can be visualized using the following objects:

• meter~ - standard LED-like metering

• levelmeter~ - VU metering

• number~ - displays the numerical value a signal

• scope~ - oscilliscope-like signal display

• spectroscope~ - displays the spectral content of a signal

Selecting a Display Channel

The number~, levelmeter~, scope~ and spectroscope~ objects will adapt to show all multichannel signals, but will only display or foreground one channel at a time. Use the channel display selector to bring one of the channels into focus.

• Click on one of the channel display selector indicators to switch to the chosen channel.

The scope~ and levelmeter~ objects have an inactivealpha attribute that controls the relative brightness of unselected channels.

Signal Probing

The Signal Probe works with MC signals.

• Enable Signal Probe in the Debug menu

• Move the cursor over a multi-channel patch cord to view the signals it contains:

• Press the down-arrow key to switch to one of the alternative displays:
