: Many modern software tonoscopes are built using visual programming languages like Max (formerly Max/MSP). Artists and researchers create 2D and 3D "patches" that take a live audio feed and translate it into real-time geometric animations.
The Tonoscope then visualizes the resulting data using various plots, such as: software tonoscope
: Emulates the movement of particles on a vibrating plate (Chladni plate) to generate symmetric geometric shapes based on input frequencies. : Many modern software tonoscopes are built using
