I enjoy those beats, and the visualization is pretty good...but is it really that much beyond MilkDrop [1]? I haven't exactly kept up with the visualization scene, but I've never come across anything that is nearly as good as MilkDrop, which is still amazing more than 15 years later. We should be able to do much better, but maybe that has fallen out of popularity with the rise of phones and streaming services.
Would love to be pointed towards anything new and at least as good as MilkDrop!
Note: you don't need the retired Winamp player, as e.g. foobar2000 [2] with the shpeck plugin [3] runs MilkDrop perfectly.

- sdwisely 9y agoThere is some interesting visualizers out there but all the REALLY interesting work is being done live and in realtime as performance (VJ'ing) instead. Take a look at this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sruWLKzgZ3w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sruWLKzgZ3w Unity being used in realtime with a pepper's ghost projection. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepper%27s_ghost https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepper%27s_ghost
- podiki 9y agoVery cool, thanks. Would still love a mostly automated system for home enjoyment; I've spent many a good hour lost in music and MilkDrop.
