There were so many great entries in this contest and deciding on a winner was hard! After much deliberation and help from the great group of mods at the GTAL forums, I’m officially declaring the winner to be trioptic with his fullscreen masterpeice! It has such a cool feel to it and is kind of like watching a painting melt. I love the soundtrack too! Trioptic will be receiving a 6-month Premium subscription to the Lynda.com Online Training Library.
The runner-up award goes to Deviant1853 for his Viz2 entry. This great entry was also accompanied by a Visualization AS3 class which helped to put it on top. Great work Deviant! Deviant will be receiving a copy of my Flash Professional 8 Video Integration CD-ROM courtesy of Lynda.com.
Below is a little Flash app I built which links to all of the entries. Here is the FLA as always. The tooltip displays the name of who created it. Be sure to have Flash Player 9 installed before checking them out!
Thanks everyone!!
Lee
Congrats winners!
woooo! Aside from the shock of winning, I must say that I am very humble among the other entries, and feel very delighted to have learned from you guys.
Congratulations to all of you guys, very impressive stuff!
Probably a pretty basic question, but how is the blurred trace effects created in some of the demos?
Congratulation to trioptic and to Deviant1835.
Congrats to everyone!!!
Very nice work

Great works, I would like the name of that song too. Thanks.
Somebody plz tell me name of the song from Chris’s visualizers.
For example:
http://www.chrisbenjaminsen.com/temp/flash9/1.swf
This is way cool. But sigh, when I open your source file for this I get:
**Error** C:\Documents and Settings\JMartell\Desktop\grid\Entry.as: Line 42: The class or interface ‘Fuse’ could not be loaded.
var f:Fuse = new Fuse();
**Error** C:\Documents and Settings\JMartell\Desktop\grid\Entry.as: Line 60: The class or interface ‘Fuse’ could not be loaded.
var f:Fuse = new Fuse();
Total ActionScript Errors: 2 Reported Errors: 2
All are great so is the music selected
CHRIS! Please whats the name of that song!
Thanks
I went to MosesSupposes to get the FUSE library and there was no download link?!
Anyone know where this can be grabbed?
To get the FUSE kit, you have to email the owner of the site, using the link provided at mosessupposes.com/Fuse
Great job I think runner-up rox!
thats what I think
Okay guys, it’s now up for download and NEW DOCS! Woo hoo! Enjoy.

[...] I’ve just added my first ActionScript 3 experiment over at my lab and it’s my addition to the sound visualizers that are out there. I know it’s far less awe-inspiring than some of the ones from Lee’s contest on The Flash Blog, but I’m happy with it for now. I’ll be making a few adjustments to it in the near future but let me know what you think in the meantime. Oh yeah, almost forgot to link you to it… click here. [...]

[...] A while back I held a contest to see who could come up with the coolest sound visualization using the new SoundMixer.computeSpectrum() method. This gives you a whole bunch of byte data which you can use to create cool sound-driven applications. But what if all you need is the overall amplitude of the sound? Well you can do this with computeSpectrum() by averaging out all the values, but that is a lot of work considering that Flash has a built set of properties just for this situation. The leftPeak and rightPeak values of the SoundChannel class provide amplitude data for each channel of the audio file. The example below shows how to use this data to create an amplitude meter. The ActionScript 3 code is below the graphic and you can get the full source here. Flash Player 9 required. [...]
pretty sure thats a Heikki song on Chris’s visuals.
Yep just checked; its Tonight by Heikki
It works at home but not at work. This incident just shows how hooked I am on Cocoalicious and what a great program it is.
if anybody has the c code for converting music into spectrum kindly send it on the foll id: priyabrata_palit@yahoo.com
Good stuff!
A bit late, but here’s my attempt:
It uses the Actionscript 3 SoundMixer.computeSpectrum to fire off random animations. Not a bread and butter visualiser but interesting none the less.

I don’t think most of these work in Flash Player 10 Beta 2. Can anyone else confirm?
Is there no way to use the SoundSpectrum class in isolation from other Flash sites using the Sound Class? Try viewing these Content Entries with a youtube video open in a completely separate window. I’m using Safari 3.

I think it will take about a month to sit down and check all of these out as they deserve. :- ) Gorgeous samples for what I’ve seen so far. With those of you who have played with the computeSpectrum goodness, what limitations have you found? Have any of you needed to import third-party libraries to circumvent those issues? I’d particularly be interested in the subject of pitch-modulation with respect to a global sound source. Any tips / advice would be most welcome!

Hi. You should look into fixing the security sandbox errors so non-technophiles can enjoy these.

it would be really awesome if someone incorporated illusions like lilac chaser. Really awesome stuff here though, thoroughly impressed with the content and Flash’s capabilities.

Seriously amazing. New to sound stuff with as3 and it is really inspiring. Thanks

ok, now this thing does’t work if a youtube player is opetn in another tab or even in another window, “solution” is to put sound spectrum script in a movie clip in stead of on stage. But then the problem is that it reacts on any sound in the browser, for example if I have my web site with my spectrum in one tab it will react on the music coming from the youtube player wich is in another tab.
BTW don’t delete this post, Lee, just because you’re in love with Adobe.
Let’s be honest and say that has a fault
