As a good chunk of our clients are musicians and bands, I’ve been extremely excited about Adobe opening up computeSpectrum() in actionscript.

Here are a few examples I found floating around the web, most include source so you can dig under the hood on each. I’ll try to write up a brief intro on computeSpectrum() as soon as I find some time, but for now the docs will have to do!

1. MrDoob’s Awesome Examples!
2. Basic Audio Spectrum Analyzer
3. Another computeSpectrum() Example
4. Revolt
5. BitmapData Spectrum Visualization Experiment
6. SoundMixer.computeSpectrum() For Sound Spectrum Analyzer
7. Using AS3’s computeSpectrum()
8. BitmapData filters and computeSpectrum()
9. AS3 Music Visualization (Source in comments)
10. Grant Skinners Visualizations
11. Zupko’s Visualizations (PV3D)
12. Source-less PV3D Example
13. Sephiroth’s Examples
14. Dehash Example
15. BrightHub Example + Source
16. SignalsOnDisplay Example + Source
