Why create 2 wave forms

[priteshmahajan1806]

I am using this code. This code will create 2 wave form in single image Please check screenshot.

Created : https://prnt.sc/tqkmdp
I need only : https://prnt.sc/tqklds

I have passed required params as well but still create 2 images

@priteshmahajan1806, you’re working with the stereo signal, that’s why you have two channels in the generated waveform. Those are left and right channels.

Hi,
I run in the same problem, and I just modify the getWaveform() method to only have first channel in stereo mode :

@DrMickArtisan, I think it needs to be configurable, otherwise we’ll break the current intended behaviour.

Doesn't the line: public function getWaveform($filename, $width, $height, $onePhase = false, $stereo = true) make it configureable? I literally just started using this and we are actively talking about it.

[webdobe]

The posted patch doesn't account for the 2nd axis line though...
