Visto - Run iTunes Visualization Plug-Ins On Live Sound



Ever been to a music concert and seen these psychadelicotronic images dancing across big screens in time to the music? Ever wanted to do the same thing?

Well, the pros don't do it quite this way, but I've had this code sitting around for about a year, and finally decided I should just go ahead and release it to see what happens. Announcing Visto, a small MacOS program to display iTunes visualization plugins with live data from the system soundcard.

It worked on about half the plugins I could find when I was developing it. I'm more than happy to help others make it work better, but I don't have the motivation to move it beyond its "for hackers only" state right now. If nothing else, hopefully someone else will write to tell me that there's already something like this out there!

LGPL, MacOS-only, source code-only - comments and questions welcome.
