Hi folks, atm I'm trying to find a freeware (preferrably Open Source) program that is able to show the current frequenzies of an audio file graphically, without showing too much detail.
Something alongside this:

(That is not a standalone program, and the program it depends on costs $.)

It should preferrably have around 10 || ("posts"?), and have the size of a YouTube window.
Yes, that's what I want to use it for, so while we're at it, do you know of any good freeware screen recorder program? ;)
The most convenient would be that the first mentioned program had the possibility to record itself and save as video, but I reckon that could be even harder to find.

Any good ideas?

The thing you are looking for is indeed called a Spectrum Analyzer.

And there are also tools for capturing videos from your computer, but have no experience in this area.

Good luck.

Of course I cheked out this, but let's for example take a look at the first page, where there are many different ways to show off the spectrum.
Spectrum Analyzer pro Live 2009 and CD-Runner 2009.01 seems to be most relevant, but the first one is payware and the second one is too small in size for a YouTube "video".

And I thought I wasn't the first to think of such a tool.... :wink:

Oh, sorry for not telling the OS. I'm using Windows XP.

IXL has some nice stuff... It's freeware, afaik, and has a lot more different metering stuff. (All separate VST's, so no unnessecary junk on your screen). I can't find the link atm, but if you want, I could upload the dll's?
