Help w/ oscilloscope multi and synth waveform analysis

[nalij]

Hi all. First time poster here.
I'm struggling a bit with the Blue Cat Oscilloscope Multi plugin. I'm trying to get a clear, repeating analysis of my waveform when i'm doing synth sound design, but i can't figure out the best settings. Using loop mode changes the location of the repeating waveform after every pass, and i can't seem to change the buffer timing so i can lock it in one place. The trigger function works slightly better at first when the waveform is very simple, like a sign wave, but when i start to tweak it with FM or multiple oscillators the whole thing starts shifting rapidly and becomes unreadable.

I've used Moscilloscope to achieve the results i'm looking for to some degree, but i really prefer the look and multi functionality of Blue Cat. I'm aware that this plugin focuses more on resolving phasing issues with multiple tracks, but this is a high end (and pricey) oscilloscope plugin! Waveform analysis for synthesis is so basic to oscilloscopes that there must be a way to achieve it better that what i'm finding currently. Any tips would be highly appreciated.

Thanks!

For such purposes, the trigger mode is indeed the one that usually works best. Have you tried to adjust the value of the trigger (the arrow on the right) to improve the synchronization?

Yeah. I still can't get it fully stabilized, especially with more complex waveforms

That's odd. Can you maybe send us an example (screenshot for example) so that we can see if it can be improved?
