How to draw super smooth Waveform?

mmprod

@Christoph-Hart Can I do this to the oscilloscope per chance? Or get a similar effect

oskarsh

@mmprod Yes you will need to use a scriptnode oscilloscope buffer. Instead of downsampling inside the LAF you will need to downsample the audio signal in the scriptnode network. You can then smooth the path the same.

If this is something you've never done before, this post could be a great starting point. It’s not exactly what you’re looking for, but it’s a good foundation for customizing your own oscilloscope using the one in Scriptnode.

@mmprod I am still not done this but I am working on an oscilloscope I plan to share soon with interpolation to smooth the waveform:

This was vey much inspired by @Mighty23 's approach but with some distinct differences. To be honest I was struggling with it and used chatGPT to figure out the anti-aliasing filter and linear interpolation functions, i.e. it isn't completed yet. Use a noise signal and compare the green with the red output to see the differences.

Perhaps you could employ @oskarsh suggestion with downsampling the signal for further smoothing. Also if anyone can figure out how to compress the signal on the vertical axis based on the amplitude would be a true hero.

@HISEnberg @oskarsh @Mighty23 thanks guys- I’ll look into these and get back to you

mmprod

Ok - I put a "sample and hold" node before the oscilloscope (is that what you meant by downsampling? @oskarsh ) and drew the oscilloscope path like @Mighty23 and @HISEnberg recommended. I got some decent results but unfortunately now HISE crashes after 5-10 seconds of opening! My hunch is that the timer interval is too fast or that the buffer size is too high. When I delete the code and the panel that is being painted, HISE doesn't crash.

Any ideas?

Otherwise I may stick with a non-smoothed oscilloscope for this project - this seems like a very finicky process.

HISEnberg

@mmprod i was getting instant crashes too, I suspect the buffer doesn't clear so it just fills up and crashes. Did you try my version? I basically bypass the buffer altogether and just refer to the fft and draw it to the panel.

oskarsh

@mmprod yes the sample and hold node is correct. Go a little easy on the timer. 10 or 20 should be enough.

The problem with the oscilloscope is that you draw many points that are not necessary basically overlapping points. To get better performance you need to simplify the path and drop points that are the same. There are many discussions on the juce forum about this

Mighty23

@mmprod said in How to draw super smooth Waveform?:

Any ideas?

I introduced a simplifyBuffer function that removes redundant points from the buffer based on a SIMPLIFICATION_TOLERANCE value.

const var dp_analyser = Synth.getDisplayBufferSource("HardcodedMasterFX1"); // or what you neeed
const var rb_analyser = dp_analyser.getDisplayBuffer(0);
const var BUFFER_LENGTH = 512;
const var properties = {
    "BufferLength": BUFFER_LENGTH,
    "NumChannels": 1
};
rb_analyser.setRingBufferProperties(properties);
const var P1 = Content.getComponent("P1");
const var NUM_WAVEFORMS = 6;
const var waveformBuffers = [];
const var SAMPLE_REDUCTION = 4; // Only process every 4th sample
var time = 0;

for (var i = 0; i < NUM_WAVEFORMS; i++) {
    waveformBuffers[i] = rb_analyser.createPath(
        P1.getLocalBounds(0), 
        [0, Math.floor(BUFFER_LENGTH/SAMPLE_REDUCTION), -8.0, 8.0], 
        0.0
    );
}

var bufferIndex = 0;
var offset = 0;

P1.setTimerCallback(function() {
    var newPath = rb_analyser.createPath(
        this.getLocalBounds(0), 
        [Math.floor(offset/SAMPLE_REDUCTION), 
         Math.floor((BUFFER_LENGTH + offset)/SAMPLE_REDUCTION), 
         -12.0, 12.0],
        time * (bufferIndex + 1) * 0.2
    );
    
    waveformBuffers[bufferIndex] = newPath;
    bufferIndex = (bufferIndex + 1) % NUM_WAVEFORMS;
    offset = (offset + 256) % BUFFER_LENGTH;
    time += 0.1;
    
    this.repaint();
});

P1.setPaintRoutine(function(g) {
    var a = this.getLocalBounds(0);
    g.setColour(0xFFB8C043);
    for (var i = 0; i < waveformBuffers.length; i++) {
        g.drawPath(waveformBuffers[i], a, 1);
    }
});

P1.startTimer(20);

Fix this value according your "downsampling":

const var SAMPLE_REDUCTION = 4; // !!!!!!!! Only process every 4th sample

We need to optimize the scope design; this version could be a starting point. You can adjust the SIMPLIFICATION_TOLERANCE value to control how much the buffer data is simplified, "skipping" redundant points.

That said, I realize this discussion might be going off-topic and potentially not fair to other users. Let me know if it would be better to start a dedicated thread for this topic.

mmprod

Thanks guys for the help- the closest I got was simply using the original code with the higher timer value like how @oskarsh suggested. But of course the animation is more choppy.

@HISEnberg and @Mighty23 I tried both your methods- these work well but I can’t wrap my head around how to ‘restyle’ it to a ‘smooth’ waveform. I’m also getting the occasional HISE crash which may be a problem for future plug-in users.

Im going to use the vanilla oscilloscope for my project. Once again, thanks for your generous help!
