NAME
synaesthesia - visual sound display
SYNOPSIS
synaesthesia [--use-sdl] [--use-x] [--use-svga] [--fullscreen] [--width w] [--height h] input
DESCRIPTION
Synaestheia is a program for representing audio graphically in real time using an attractive variety of visual effects. It reads sound data from input and displays the visual representation through svgalib, X or SDL. While synaesthesia is running, moving the mouse over the window will expose a set of audio and other runtime controls. --use-sdl Force display via SDL. --use-svga Force display via svgalib (i386 architecture only). --use-x Force display via X. --fullscreen Attempt a full-screen display (requires a fast machine). --width w Specify a width for the window. --height h Specify a height for the window. input as cd | line | esd | pipe frequency Audio source; this should be one of cd, line, esd, or pipe. When using a pipe source, the sample frequency (e.g. 44100) must be specified; synaesthesia will expect a 16-bit stereo PCM stream on standard input. The sound will be played to the audio device.
EXAMPLES
