After checking Sephiroth's SoundMixer experiment I thought something nicer could be done working a little bit more on that field. Long time ago I did some Visualization system for r08028. With flash7/8 you weren't able to get even the volume of the Sound so I had to do a quick tool with C++ for generating .txt files with the data. Luckily with Flash9/AS3 you can get that data on-the-fly!!

So, this is how the experiments ended up like:


source file, music by Paniq (contemplation)


source file, music by Crankshaft (from the demo Ocean Machine)


source file, music by rydmlego (fire tree)

The source files won't work as it needs some custom objects I've done (cube, piramid), but at least you can get the idea of how everything works.

Enjoy!

UPDATE:
I've updated the files and source files with a better algorithm for showing the spectrum (well, better than nothing, and there wasn't any algorithm in place before :P)

UPDATE 2:
I've added a little bit of decay to the movements, now they look nicer.
