Cableguys have released a free update to their ShaperBox 3 rhythmic effects plug-in, adding a new Oscilloscope tool which has been designed to help users to visualise the dynamics of their music, and assist them in pinpointing mix issues.
The new Oscilloscope features a high-res waveform display, and can be scaled to beats and bar values, as well as audio frequencies or MIDI note pitches. An external side-chain input is present, allowing users to overlay and compare the measurements of any two tracks within a session. Other key features include vertical zooming, a Freeze function, and a 0dB clipping indicator.
Take a look at the video below for a demonstration of the tool’s capabilities.
