I want something that just takes whatever the PC mic hears, either a default hardware mic or a plugged in mic, and basically makes a Milkdrop type of visual from it in real time. Any suggestions are welcome.
Edit: Im looking to have visuals while my friends and I jam
Got a link? Theres a thousand things with that name.
ProjectM is literally the modern incarnation of Milkdrop, and it’s packaged in Debian, so I assume all child distros.
EDIT: If you want something more expensive and elaborate than a picture on a computer display, look into DMX512. That’s the electrical standard for connecting the kind of controlled lighting systems that are used in clubs and such. You get a DMX512 transciever, plug it into a computer, hook up software, and attach DMX512 hardware. Strobes, computer-directed spotlights doing patterns, color-changing lights, etc. You can find YouTube videos of people using systems like that to drive lighting displays on houses synchronized with audio, stuff like this:

Thank you
It’s also available on steam if that simplifies things: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1358800/projectM_Music_Visualizer/
