Probably true. You can't. However, I'm not asking you to prove
anything. I'm asking you why you think digital scopes absolutely SUCK
for audio work? That's your statement, and I'm asking for some
substantiation. You need not try to convince me of anything, just
explain your allegations. So there's no misunderstanding, I don't
really care for your opinions and allegations. However, I do care why
you think so.

Nice cut and paste including the typo error.

I'm familiar with the use of analog, digital, PDA based, and PC based
scopes. Each has their place. I don't find the digital scopes to be
irritating or tedious. They do require a bit of a learning curve to
understand their operation, but that's true for any piece of test
equipment. What I find tedious is setting up a scope and other
instruments for a specific test, such as a frequency sweep. With an
analog scope, I have to it all from memory and each time I run the
test. With digital, I just punch a button or load a setup macro. My
PC based scope has numerous macros for specific 2way radio tests and
measurements that I do constantly. If I had to setup the tests
individually, as I would with an analog scope, that would certainly be
irritating and tedious.

Displayed traces of what measurements are misleading? What audio test
procedures are useless to perform with a digital oscilloscope? As far
as I can tell, there's very little that can't also be done on a
digital scope (within the limitations of bandwidth and DC coupling).
