Using this application, you can easily create test signals for reading or writing
data from/to hard disk media.
Signals are created using the following process:
H Input binary bit pattern expressed by 0 and 1.
H Convert the input pattern and estimate the positions of the generated pulse
and polarity.
H Superpose an isolated pulse in the position estimated above. The pulses shift
during superpose.
