recording software. SystemFlow features a Windows-based
GUI (Graphical User Interface) that provides a simple means to
configure and control the recorder. SystemFlow includes signal
viewing and analysis tools, that allow the user to monitor input
signals prior to, during, and after a recording session. These
tools include a virtual oscilloscope, a spectrum analyzer and
spectrogram displays. For more information on SystemFlow:
