Does anyone know of any other music visualizers that are on the level of Milkdrop? I've never seen anything nearly as enchanting as Milkdrop, and with such a range of visual styles in the presets. As I mentioned in the current Webamp thread [0], I've spent many a good hour with Milkdrop and some good music.

Not really a visualizer as it's not in real time to music, but it makes amazing visuals:

Been a long time since I tried out projectM, looking to get that Milkdrop goodness back (and not on Windows). And just saw they have a VR mode.....that could be very very cool (and disorienting, in a good way?), can't wait to try that!

+1 for ProjectM. Excellent, even works great on FreeBSD!

Milkdrop was amazing for its time. I used it to do visuals at concerts and music festivals in the mid-00's. It was especially awesome because you could drive it with a microphone input so you could jam and get real time visualizations that synced with what you were playing.
