Circa ten years ago I switched from FLStudio to Ableton Live but I still miss Wave Candy ... Of course I have a couple of other analysis tools but Wave Candy is damn sweet handy because it's includes an Oscilloscope, Spectrum Analyzer, Vectorscope and Peak Meter at once is fully resizable an has a Stay on Desktop function. I could buy IL Juice Pack which includes Wave Candy but the price of 90 bucks is way to much for me because I don't think that I would use the other plugins ...

I never came across a similar plug-in why? The concept is damn nice ...
@ Analyzer experts : maybe there a flaws in the measurement within Wave Candy?

What's your thoughts?

tbh I'm about to pony up the $90 just to get Wave Candy.

the sonogram has no competition whatsoever, none.

actually there will probably be a sale for black friday or the holidays, I hope, I'll probably get it then and not have to think about how nice it would be to have WC in Live anymore.

i use melda multi analyzer, but the oscillator section of this plugins is made to show one wave cycle, it is very usefull for synth but for the wave candy way of showing waveform i use oszillos mega scope from schulz.audio.

both plugins are multitracks unlike wave Candy.

Also a shame about the Juice Pack is it originally included Edison.

I have the Melda analyzer but prefer Signalizer. It's simple, beautiful and free:

Socalabs has a couple of free visualisation plugins I use sometimes.

The Spectrum Analyzer has a Sonogram mode which gives comparable output to Wave Candy. The irony of this is I took the screenshot in FL Studio

That Signalizer plugin Richard shared looks really good! Might look into that one.
There was also a circular visualizer I saw someone share before that looked interesting.

Yeah I just downloaded the demo to get really convinced ... And a shame they do not show up in Ableton Live ... No error message nothing ... Damn

My new fav signal analyzer. I would think this depends on what you're trying to do but for mixing, equing and compressing this thing is amazing.

Melda https://www.meldaproduction.com/MOscilloscope is nice..

Never heard of wave candy

But VPS scope, stillwellaudio Schope, HOFA analyzer, sm exoscope, ... does the trick here.

Works for me in Live
Try renaming the plugin.
