pulseviz

... is going to be a light-weight configurable OpenGL-accelerated audio visualizer for PulseAudio written in C++11. It is supposed to supersede my older pulseviz.py Python project as it turned out, Python might be a bit too slow for this kind of application.

Installation

Dependencies

glfw
glew
glm
libpulse and libpulse-simple
fftw3

mkdir build && cd build && cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. && make && ./pulseviz
