Hi, I'm a audio-engineering student in need of a cheap portable 2-way scope that could travel with me easily. Instead of second-hand standard oscilloscopes and handheld advanced multimeters, the idea of a high-transfer-rate (neither serial nor parallel) peripheral that could be attached to a computer in order to use its screen and perfs seduced me. The latest DS1M12 "Stingray" from USB-Instruments (http://www.usb-instruments.com/), rated at 300� circa, looks like a killer for what I need, and it ads tonegen and partial Linux-compliance. I'm not into HAM radio (at least FM synthesis), so the sampling specs seem to be suitable. When it comes to tube homebrewing, I think an X10 probe should enlarge the 0-50V span to 0-500V without damage.
Before diving in, have I missed something particuliar that should make me turn away? Do you know if such a device has been turned into a DIY project? With COMEDI (http://www.comedi.org) and/or xoscope (http://xoscope.sf.net) compliance? Cheers, Christian Frisson
