Monstercat Visualizer

Miza & Sirius - Area 6662. Alan Walker - Fade (Miza Remix).

Apr 12th, 2015

Empowering a creative and passionate community through innovation. A remake of the original Monstercat audio visualizer. I am in no way associated with Monstercat, this was just a project that I wanted to make. If you see any bugs/problems, please tell me so that I can fix them. Color of the visualizer bars/monstercat cover in RGB(a).; This is the default color when genre-based colors are activated.; You can change the color to one of the following genres (in the list) by writing the genre like this: #Dubstep#.

A realtime audio visualizer for Rainmeter similar to the ones used in the Monstercat videos.
