Hello Lance, Todd+Jean & all,

    I've already tried this software, just can't remember from where I've
downloaded it...

    It's sort of cool, but doesn't works so well. At least in my machine.

    I've talked with Robert Masta from Daqarta, and he says he's working on
a new version of Daqarta with "exotic stimulus generation". The next version
will probably do dual-trace with soundcards, maybe also with "lab-type data
acquisition boards".

    I would ask everyone that have some interes on this topic to go to
www.daqarta.com and download the www.daqarta.com/dqa.zip software. It's
really good. Even works wonderfully on a 386DX40 that was getting dust on a
corner of my lab! Web site says that it will work even with a 286!!! So, if
you need an inexpensive and powerfull osciloscope and your waves arent above
20KHz (note 1), go ahead, download the software, register it (just US$29)
and show the developer that you want it dual-trace with your board.

    Now, just if it works with BitScope... (well, I can dream :)

    Best regards,

    Brusque

note 1: Well, actually it can do above 20KHz with other boards. Developer
claims "35 kHz on a 40 MHz 386 CPU" using a printer port as a SAR
(Successive Approximation Register) DAC!
