The scaling should only need to be inversely proportional.
That sine wave is also present in the first image if you look closely;
apparently only brought out better in the second image.
There must be some turbulence in there, you both should know that or
not.
And if not, we must all have our speakers to close to the monitor.
I like this light sabre more than others I have seen (sorry "others").
