| + | The [[Analog Thing]] is a pure analog device, there is no microcontroller or other advanced digital logic involved. Nevertheless, there are interesting cases when to combine the [[Analog Thing]] with software. |
| − | == Softscopes ==
| |
| − | What follows is a curated list of '''Software oscilloscopes'''. The idea is always that you can connect your [[Analog Thing]]
| |
| − | to your [[Soundcard]] input with a simple Chinch-to-jack adapter, such as depicted in the right. This allows to connect to
| |
| − | the 3,5mm phone connector (''Klinke'') which is still present in many Notebooks, Tablets, Smartphones, also for many
| |
| − | system-on-chips such as the [[Raspberry Pi]]. If your system does no more have such an input, there may be cheap adapters to USB
| |
| − | (they are usually called ''USB soundcard'').
| |
| | | | |
| − | Note that a single chinch socket has to pins: One for ground, one for the signal. This puts it on equal footing with a BNC
| + | == Applications for making use of The Analog Thing == |
| − | connector or a ''mono'' phone connector. The adapter shown on the right joins two outputs together to a ''stereo'' sound signal.

| + | * [[Software Oscilloscopes|Software emulated Oscilloscope]] in order to display data |
| − | You can use https://anabrid.dev/webosci/ from any recent web browser. You may be prompted to give permit recording from your sound card. Make sure you connect to the correct input and ''not'' to your webcam microphone, for instance.

| − | ''Known limitations'': Older versions of Safari, Firefox and Chrome do not support the relevant Web standards. If this is the case for you, it may be best to look for an alternative.
