Yes, I've been urging Keith to do a "headphone test", where you hook the
step pulse source to a set of walkman headphones with a series resistor
to limit current. If the step pulse spacing is irregular, it sounds
like buzzing
bees. If the pulses are very regular, it sounds like a slide whistle.
This is how I check settings for my universal stepper controller. If the
tuning parameers are not right, the buzzing bees can be obtained. When
I get the clean whistle, I know that is the magic combination of numbers.
