1. A computing device for synchronizing a visualization with audio samples, the computing device comprising:

  • one or more computer-readable media;

    one or more processors;

    computer-readable instructions on the one or more computer-readable media which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to provide a system comprising;

    one or more audio sources configured to provide audio samples that are to be rendered by a media player;

    an audio sample pre-processor communicatively linked with the one or more audio sources and configured to receive and pre-process audio samples before the samples are rendered, the pre-processing providing characterizing data associated with each sample, wherein the characterizing data is derived from the audio samples; and

    one or more effects configured to receive the characterizing data and use the characterizing data to render a visualization that is synchronized with an audio sample that is being rendered by the media player.
