Visualizations

In the centre of the Now Playing view, MuSéa optionally shows one of several real-time representations of the sound. You choose it under Settings → section APPEARANCE → Visualization.

Representation	Shows
Zigzag line	Stylized progress line across the track
Oscilloscope	The waveform in real time (time domain)
Bar spectrum	Frequency bands as bars (spectrum)
Spectrogram	Running spectrogram (frequency over time)
Goniometer	Stereo image as a goniometer (phase figure)
Radial spectrum	Radially arranged spectrum

6.1 Progress line and background

Regardless of the visualization, under Progress line you choose whether the progress is drawn as the real waveform of the track (quiet passages visible) or as a stylized Zigzag line. Background image and waveform colour are also set in the APPEARANCE section (see chapter 12).
