Hi everyone, I’m new to Pure Data and currently working on a short workshop project (group of 2). We’re using GEM to create a kaleidoscope-style visual that reacts to an imported audio file.

We would like the visuals to react to audio features such as tempo, pitch, and loudness.

Do you have any tips or approaches to achieve this in Pure Data + GEM?

Also, are there other useful audio features we could extract (besides tempo, pitch, and loudness) that could drive visuals? And what units or objects would you recommend for analyzing them in Pure Data?

Thanks in advance for your help! 🫶
