Ouch, I'd have been interested for around half the price!

  For half the price there are alternative from Chinese makers, this thing looks like three tools in one.

    Fair, I was just comparing to the NTS-1 in my head :)

    It actually looks like a cheap Chinese oscilloscope that I once bought :)

      DSO138? That’s the first thing it reminded me of

That's way too expensive!!!! Instead of this crap, buy yourself a proper entry level oscilloscope. You can get a 100MHz 1GSas Rigol or Siglent for less than €300, which is enough for me locking lasers every day.

  Does the "proper entry level oscilloscope" you talk about come with guides on how to use it for music production and other studio tasks? Does it also come with a "flexible waveform generator", spectrum analyzer and tuner too? If so, could you please provide the link to exactly what oscilloscope you have in mind, as I could buy that instead of NTS-2 in that case.

    > come with guides on how to use it for music production and other studio tasks? You can find old Tektronix App Notes here: https://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/Application_Notes https://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/Application_Notes Tektronix's Measurement Concepts are here: https://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/Concepts_Series https://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/Concepts_Series Both are free and very well-written. I would skip the "Circuit Concepts" series, as it's mostly focused on circuits for analog oscilloscopes. While neither resource is specifically focused specifically on music production, studying them will give you a broad understanding of "what's going on under the hood", which you can apply to music production. If you really want "here's how you add pink noise using Korg's MS-20 (sold separately)", then I suppose you could just buy their book. > Does it also come with a "flexible waveform generator", spectrum analyzer and tuner too? The first two are table stakes for cheapie Chinese oscilloscopes, since... oh, probably at least 10 years ago. The "tuner" on this one is just a different UI for the FFT/spectrum analyzer. I suppose that could be it's USP, but why not just learn how to use the FFT/SA if you're excited about having that feature anyway?
