Audio File
Loads and plays back an audio file independently of the live mic/line input, exposing the same analysis taps as live input so a backing track can drive visuals deterministically.
What it does
Audio File is a modulator: it makes a moving value that can drive any control on the canvas. It has no input and gives audio out, so it starts a chain.
Try it
Load a pre-mixed track and drive the whole visual patch from it so a live performance is reproducible.
