Making custom waveforms with LabVIEW

[SocialSupport]

LabVIEW support community we need your help.

We found this question from Casey on our Facebook page. We feel his question might warrant ample discussion so we have pointed him here to the forums and created this thread for him. Is there anyone who can advise Casey on how LabVIEW can be used to make multiple waveforms here on this forum thread?

Yours truly,

NI Social Media Team

Good evening

I found some documentation I think would be helpful.

https://www.ni.com/docs/en-US/bundle/labview/page/waveform-charts.html#d40732e84

This page documents how to create multiple waveforms and display them.

Does this answer your question? If not let me know and I can post further resources.

If you really need an answer and are not just trying to lure us to some social site (what the hell's a "FaceBook"? ) you need to be more specific.

LabVIEW is a programming language focused on science and engineering.  Of course you can generate waveforms.

Thanks for the recommendations, guys. We're trying to make sure we "teach this guy to fish" as far as where to go for the best NI support channel. This was all the info we could gather from the Facebook post on our wall.

We're actually trying to lure this person from Facebook to our forums, not the other way around. 😉

That's great.  If I'm not mistaken it looks like he's interested in music applications.  LabVIEW is not going to beat a professional music synthesizer program but it's VERY easy to connect up oscillators, filters, etc. and send the output to a sound card.  You can learn a lot about music, programming and the physics of sound by playing around with your code.  Plus, it's kind of fun actually.  I can whip up a simple example that could be expanded if he is interested...
