Known Issues

Before attempting this you should understand the concept of how its going to work,
you need to have basic knowledge of loudspeaker dynamics and an X-Y scope
THIS IS NOWHERE NEAR FINISHED - it is a demo of an idea only and has loads of work to do!

When launching from a double click or the command line the output size is not set correctly, this is because the window doesnt get focus quickly enough and cant control the audio device. Adjusting just about anything will set the size right again.
