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

       synaesthesia esd

       synaesthesia cd

       synaesthesia line

       ogg123 -d raw -f - song.ogg | synaesthesia pipe 44100
