James, My experience with PC based Wave Form Monitors and Vectorscopes has been limited to the DPS Personal V-Scope. However with this board the only time that you need to "talk" to it via software is when you might want to make a change to some of its settings. Normally I find that I can just leave it in one setting while I am editing without having to come back to it again and again, disrupting the editing process. Now maybe other editors do grab the knobs on their WFM/VScope continuosly, because they can, but I think that in general they do the same as I, leaving it set in one position or another and monitoring the "display" monitor. The DPS V-Scope takes a feed of the Program Output and then provides a composite signal to a dedicated monitor that provides the WFM/V-Scope display. It operates continuosly with any and all other software on the machine (the board itself simply draws power from the PC slot and all control signals come through a serial interface). -John -John
