MilkDrop 2 Visualisation
By: oops
foo_vis_milk2 is a port for foobar2000 of Winamp's MilkDrop 2 music visualizer. It additionally migrates rendering from its original DirectX 9 to DirectX 11.
MilkDrop 2 takes you flying through visualizations of the soundwaves you're hearing. It uses beat detection to trigger myriad psychedelic effects, creating a rich visual journey through sound.
