This week's featured free plug-in from our free plug-ins database is GŌN from Maat Digital. GŌN (rhymes with “lone”) is a free software goniometer that authentically replicates an analogue oscilloscope experience while keeping complexity at bay.

What Is GŌN?

This “phase scope” plugin quickly conveys global trends and troubles, with a visual out–of–phase warning built-in. Plus, an optional autogain feature ensures that you’ll see an understandable display with a very wide range of input amplitudes.

Usable metering is essential for any engineer, and GŌN’s options are equally practical, with a notable absence of controls. Unlike an oscilloscope, GŌN’s lack of any knobs or switches means its straightforward user interface contains only a single button, the preference’s gear icon at upper right.
