Hi I'm designing a spectrum analyzer for a flash media player using the new computeSpectrum method in AS3.
There are two basic types of visualizers I'm working on:
-wave-type (displays a sound wave)
-bar-type (displays frequencies)
The bar-type analyzer uses the FFTMode parameter of computeSpectrum method.
The problem is in the bar-type analyzer: the lower frequencies (bass sounds) are way too high and almost always non-zero. I compared it to winamp's simple visualizer.
I'll get into the details later if you need but first please:

I prepared this specially for testing both types of analyzers side by side.
Thanks in advance.

I'll get into the details later if you need but first please:
- download the zip archive
- put any of your favorite songs into the same directory, where you extract the archive and rename it to "song.mp3"
- test it! compare it with your favorite analyzer.
