Are there any frameworks or open-source code that would simplify the process of implementing a real-time oscilloscope (time-domain audio visualisation) in OSX?

Ideally, I want to display a simple animated view representing the audio signal being input by the microphone input.

Answer 1

The easiest way to do this is to use a QCView. It s pretty easy to find QC compositions that display a bar graph display of the audio output.

Answer 2

Look at a language called Pd (Pure Data). It s the free version of Max/MSP. It s the easiest way to do anything with audio. One of the classes is in fact an oscilloscope. Simply draw a line from the output of your sound source (it can be your mic, a sound file, or a live oscillator) to the oscilloscope and bathe in the visual output glory!

Answer 3

the SurfaceVertexProgram example is a nice demonstration of how to do an oscilloscope using OpenGL. the example is a bit out-dated (you have to build up a new xcode project), but functions and demonstrates very useful techniques.
