Bought a scope, what else do I need?

Well, I don't have it just yet, but I've agreed to purchase a Tektronics T922 oscilloscope and was wondering what exactly do I need in addition so that I can tinker with musical electronics? Its coming with its manual and a P6120 probe. Do I need some sort of signal generator?

My main goal is to eventually be able to debug/calibrate time based analog effects like delays, chorus, etc.

I'm going to go hunt for a scope primer I think... :)

or try this one, bottom of the page ... the page has not been updated in a while, but the program will actually do sine, triangle, square, sawtooth and pulse, as well as pink and white noise. I have it on my system, I can actually enter the frequency I want, like 82.41Hz

also it's free!

Sweet, picked it up today. Was cheap, came with a probe, a manual and it seems like it works fine... I'm happy. :)

Thanks for the links. I'll have to do some serious reading as I have no clue what I'm doing.
