I'm currently testing the overtone spectrum of several instruments. I haven't been able to find a freeware program that's well suited to my needs. In particular, I would like to be able to pause the playback of each overtone spectrum at specific intervals in order to compare the instruments. I've tried Visual Analyzer, Soundcard Oscilloscope, and Zelscope. I'm wondering if anyone on this forum has any suggestions for other freeware?

I believe "Sample Champion" does what you are looking for. It has a 30 day free trial period. Do a Google search to find it, the authors website, purebits.com, says 'New website is coming soon!', oh well...

The 30 day trial version is called SCTRIAL.EXE and available on many download sights. Again, a Google search using the file name finds it.

Cheers,
Tom
 
Thanks! I'm perusing the program now and it looks promising.
