Im thinking of getting a scope to perfect the titlt, i’ve been told its +7 for an Esi Juli@ but was wondering if it is really worth investing in a scope and what else it can help me perfect..
saw this one

it do the job ok and easily???that USB one only goes up to 8kHz, definitely a no go as you can’t check the frequency response to correct for any rolloff or dips/peaks in the treble.
that’s DSO isn’t bad tho, that’s a clone (or a somewhat close copy) of the 1st generation of the DSO Nano, by Seeed. 😉 Same company that designed and makes that DSO Quad I linked the prototype of. The DSO Nano is totally suitable for audio & mpx signals, cheap, portable, good software on it… It seriously changes the game in cheap scopes.
So if I get the clone do I just connect the croc clips or whatever it has to a phono coming off the soundcard, one to the outer circle and one to the pin??
Actually… the soundcard will need to be properly loaded, so that you’re pulling current from it, so it’ll need to be plugged into whatever you’re going to plug it in to. A scope is designed to NOT draw much current, which is caused by the resistance being so high. This is so you can measure an active circuit without disturbing it, and to protect the scope from devices capable of high current. The side effect is you can’t measure current flow through a scope, but that’s what a DMM (digital multi-meter) is for.
So you could just get a splitter (aka y-cable) and hook the scope up to one of those. Remember to take the y-cable back off after you’re done calibrating. You know what they say about weak chains.
