CubicSDR: New open source, cross platform SDR software
Over on YouTube a video showing off a preview version of a new cross platform and open source SDR software program has recently been uploaded. The software is named CubicSDR and aims to support all major operating systems including Linux, Windows and OSX. The code can be downloaded from its GitHub page at https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR.
CubicSDR currently supports the RTL-SDR, but in the future hopes to support the HackRF and other SDR’s. They also hope to eventually integrate several demodulation filters, make managing multiple SDRs easy and allow for scripting of custom demodulators.
HI, how can I get a calibrated S meter indication on CubicSDR? I’m using Ubuntu 16.04 with an SDRPlay RSP1A. I can’t find documentation on this. Thanks
Hello,
Very “clear” waterfall and spectrum displays.
At my point of vue, far better compared to SDR#, SDR Console and Open HPSDR and HDSDR.
In my “wish” list:
As we can read the “lowest” and “highest” levels on the main spectrum display, displaying the difference (SNR) would be very useful to do gain setting for example.
Best regards and 73 QRO,
Rudi, hb9ari
what is the IQ usage under linux ? Where can be redirected the IQ output ? /dev/dsp isn’t working
Hello!
It works on Win 7 64-bit, but the audio is stuttery unless the FFT display is paused by opening a drop-down menu or clicking on the UI. My machine’s well within spec for SDR and works very well with all other software.
Same problem on AMD 260 3.2 GHz CPU, 8 Gig of RAM
Build v0.1.0-beta is now available on the CubicSDR releases page on GitHub:

‘Test Build 2’ works just fine on my 64 bit Win7 running on an old E8400.

Compiles flawlessly and works as expected. Great job!
Looks promising but I still struggling compiling and building the source code on windows 8. 🙂 any documentation how to compile and build on windows?

Hi Richard, issue #31 has been posted at the repository now https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR/issues/31 which will address this soon. Cheers!
I built Liquid DSP on a Banana Pi (vi makefile ESC:%s/mfloat-abi=soft/mfloat-abi=hard/g ) and hit the exact same issue with CubicSDR. Glad it was not some weird ARM issue.
I “git pull”‘ed the update and it works great now, nice.
