PSYSCOPE Pro
See how your sounds line up. Compare waveforms, explore their frequency content and inspect stereo information in one workspace.
Work with several sounds
PSYSCOPE Pro brings up to 16 sources into one simultaneous comparison. Insert an instance on each track you want to visualize, send audio through those tracks, then open a PSYSCOPE editor to inspect their signals together in the shared plugin workspace, without manual routing between tracks.
Choose an individual sound, overlay the sources with layers, separate them vertically with stack, or add the enabled sources together with sum. Inspect their waveforms, compare their frequency spectra, or display waveform and spectrum together.
Organize the workspace into up to 8 groups of 16 sound slots, for 128 instance slots in total. Switch groups to focus on the tracks you need: for example, drums and bass, synths, or effects. The active group supplies the sources for the current comparison. Instance copies let you reuse a reference such as the Kick in several groups.
Use Sets to recall a group, its enabled sounds and its display selection, such as Kick + Bass in sum view. Follow Quick start to set up your first comparison and check how instances share the workspace in your host.

| You want to… | Start here |
|---|---|
| Find a toolbar control or display option | Main toolbar · Show menu |
| Compare the timing and shapes of several sounds | Sounds and display modes |
| Read a region's boundaries, duration and cycle frequency | Measure a region |
| Follow a musical loop or inspect a repeating cycle | Synchronization and channels |
| Examine frequency content over time | Spectrum and spectrogram |
| Inspect levels and stereo information | Meters |
| Inspect a cycle or the relationship between kick and bass | Cycle tracking and phase |
| Compare what changed between two sources | Delta comparison |
| Follow the amplitude outline of a sound | Ballistics and envelopes |
| Keep a waveform still or save an image | Freeze and exports |
Begin with Quick start, then use the left navigation or search for a control label such as FFT, freeze or LR.
About this edition
Native captures use reproducible example sounds. Additional figures marked Product-page example come from the PSYSCOPE Pro presentation; their layouts, sound examples and colors may differ. The detailed parameter reference is being expanded.
