foo_vis_milk2 ~ Foobar2000 MilkDrop 2 Visualizer

Posted by tom2tec on

foo_vis_milk2 is a port for foobar2000 of Winamp’s MilkDrop 2 music visualizer. It additionally migrates rendering from its original DirectX 9 to DirectX 11.

MilkDrop 2 takes you flying through visualizations of the soundwaves you’re hearing. It uses beat detection to trigger myriad psychedelic effects, creating a rich visual journey through sound.

Features:

  • Uses DirectX 11 for rendering.
  • Uses updated libraries.
  • vis_milk2 has been upgraded to use more modern C++ alongside DirectX 11. Deprecated or insecure functions have been rewritten and most unused functionality removed.
  • Configurable through foobar2000 preferences instead of INI files.
  • Supports the Default User Interface (Default UI) only.
  • Tested on foobar2000 v2.1.2 (x86 32-bit and x86 64-bit) and Microsoft Windows 11 (Build 22621).

AlsaPlayer ~ Linux PCM Player

Posted by tom2tec on

AlsaPlayer for Linux is a new kind of player that effectively runs pulse-code modulation or .PCM files. The player uses multithreading pretty heavily and was written specifically for giving some good exercise to the new Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) driver and the library system. If you look closely, you’ll observe that AlsaPlayer has some highly interesting features that can be found only in the UNIX-based or Linux-based players. The main goal of the people who created AlsaPlayer for Linux was to develop a completely pluggable framework that could playback every type of media file, with majority of focus on the PCM audio data.

Deep Audio Visualization ~ Visual Music Perceptions

Posted by tom2tec on

Audio visualization usually relies on hand-crafted features, like intensity, timbre or pitch. These metrics are defined by humans and are biased towards our cultural representation of sound. In this project, we have trained a Neural Net to generate these features directly from spectrograms, in an unsupervised way. We thus get rid of this bias and hope the resulting visualizations can help us perceive music in different ways.
