OT- Music Visulizations

[laser_jock99]

You've all seen the cr*ppy music visulization (moving graphics to music) supplied with MS Windows Media Player? If you've got a fast computer try this.....

1) Go to Winamp and download their latest MP3 player software if you haven't already got it:

http://www.winamp.com

2) Download the Milkdrop visulization plugin here:

3) Configure the Milkdrop Pluggin to run at the highest resolution, greatest number of colours and highest frame refresh rate your computer can 'cope' with! I'm running it 75 frames/sec, 1024 x 768 pixels and 16M colours on a 2.8GHz PC.

The effects are visually quite stunning/mesmorising- and get better after a few beers! If you've a DLP or LCD projector even better!!!

I off to watch some music.....

Ive had that for a year or two which is why I dont use Media Player as its so far behind in the vis. Looks lovely and PCs like yours do a nice job of it

I've always loved winamp and have to agree that the Milkdrop plugin is one of the best for visualization. I usually pump it out via a Domino 20 to a 6' screen after an evening at the pub - spin spin sugar!

Another cool plugin is the MSN Current Playing Song one. It allows your windows messenger contacts to see what you're currently listening to. You can learn a lot about people this way

I got an old Hitachi LCD projector- allows for a nice 80" 'screen'. Great for chillin out!

I borrowed a projector of a mate. Had to give it back, made me feel inadequate......
