There is an entire music genre that's designed to look pretty on an oscilloscope, look up oscilloscope music, I've even made some songs for it. By the way interesting video, you answered some questions I had.
Fresh Aire III- the first album on which Mannheim Steamroller used the Prophet 5 synthesizer. I believe in that tune there was also an Oberheim Four-Voice and one other synth for the square wave arpeggio, possibly a Crumar Spirit?
It's pretty straightforward. Split the audio coming out of the source. One way will go to your speakers and the other way to the oscope. Connect left and right to x and y. I stripped a stereo cable to get exposed wire to clip into.
How did you go about connecting the left and right channels from your music player to the oscilloscope? I would really like to do this. Also, was there any need to have your ground wire connected during this?
Each channel (L/R) has a signal and ground that I connected to the oscilloscope inputs. I cut a headphone cable, separated and exposed the wires, and connected them by tightening the nuts on the o-scope's banana plug connectors. Some headphone cables have wires with enamel insulation that you can remove by tinning or sanding.
No need to cut anything, just connect aligator clips to different sections on a jack. The top and middle are left and right, and the third one is ground.
That's correct, it's just right to horizontal and left to vertical (or vice versa, I can't remember). It would be interesting to try using a crossover filter to send low frequencies to one channel and high frequencies to the other.
I used a free program called Audacity to generate the waveforms. It's straightforward to shift one channel's sine wave by a quarter wavelength by dragging a selection. You could also use 2 signal generators, and I've done that before. One way is to trigger both by the same external signal, but set a phase shift on one generator. Since they run from different oscillators, they will eventually drift, but it works ok for a while. This is also an expensive method.

im making an oscilloscope album with an album player box thing that you insert cartridges into, and the whole thing runs on a crt or an oscilloscope.
Really underrated content here. Good job!
Great one

What you've discovered are called Lissajous curves
Interesting video, congrats!
Very cool!
Who here is older then this osiloascop
Is anyone around from this old video/comments? I just got an oscope I want to hook in my speakers…

@@eandi4 I got it. Thank you!
Could you comment/edit in a list of the songs that you put through the oscilloscope? Thanks, love the video!
I updated the description to include the list of songs!
Thats the Energy Sound Form.
Can analog recorded music be manipulated by an analog oscilloscope then output as a new recording? If so, how's it done?
you have the cool cd thing that rotates the cd's ?
Do you use 2 channels to mode XY, right?

Thanks! I just picked up a Tektronix 760A. Hoping to finish troubleshooting it. Doesn't look as cool as yours though

What are the inputs to the horizontal and vertical channels? - Just the two tracks of a stereo recording?

The Erstwhile Earl what are you running the cable from, a line out or a speaker jack?
You should have patched in the stereo audio to the video for those in the audience actually watching with an oscilloscope hooked up...
garbleduser what does it look like in mono?
1-D? Are there shimmery patches?
Ian Schimnoski with too much bleed over between the left and right channels, the image devolves to a diagonal line.

I thought as much, but it isn't perfectly filled in, it still has a timbre, right; like little 1-dimensional forms/clusters and whatnot?
Are you using two signal generators or what is the setup that you can invert one by 90 degrees ?? Can you please explain? Thanks

I wanna see dragonforce on this
i expected to see shrooms
What was the song at the end?
See the description, I added the songs to it.
Vectra Scope.!!
Parece una imagen estéreo con problemas de fase Jajajaja
