This is yet another spectrum analyzer, but it presents the data better than the other ones I've seen, which makes it more interesting to watch.
Waterfall is yet another XMMS spectrum analyzer. While most analyzers only show a changing snapshot of the current sound, waterfall shows a scrolling spectrogram, a 2-d plot of frequency vs time, with energy represented by intensity. There are also options to use color to display stereo discrepancies, frequency onsets, or frequency uniformity.
To build this plugin, you'll need GLIB and GTK. You can find those at http://www.gtk.org/
You can find the latest release of this plugin at http://www.aigeek.com/waterfall/
Send me some mail if you like it, and/or if you have suggestions. Seth Golub <seth@aigeek.com>
