FilePlayer

reacts to a playing audio file: a bands bar chart plus a waveform oscilloscope, and the whole canvas flashes on each beat. By default it loops a bundled clip (El Fandanguito, a traditional Mexican son huasteco for violin, CC BY-SA). Pass a path on launch to play your own track instead (AudioPlayer, bands, beat, waveform)

/// Reacts to a playing audio file. By default it loops a bundled clip — a
/// recording of *El Fandanguito*, a traditional Mexican *son huasteco* for solo
/// violin (performed by Cynthia Molina, CC BY-SA) — so it runs out of the box.
/// Pass a path on launch to play your own track instead:
///
/// ```
/// swift run Example-Audio-FilePlayer /path/to/your/track.mp3
/// ```
///
/// The violin spreads energy across the spectrum: the bars along the bottom are
/// the frequency `spectrum`, and the line through the middle is the raw
/// `waveform` (an oscilloscope), both straight from `AudioPlayer`.
