Haven't used one in years. Just to put it in perspective, the last time I used a visualizer was when I listened to Sgt Pepper's for the first time.

Which one? iTunes has a few, some horrible, but one of them I really enjoyed.

My sister's ex used to put on a visualizer to the music during parties and I enjoyed glancing at it from time to time; he used whatever was built into the XBox 360. Honestly would enjoy having one on as I often listen to music through my television (through HDMI to my computer) while doing things around the house, when I don't have vinyl on. I couldn't actively watch one though unless I was tripping balls or it was interactive. Any recs for one are welcome though.

I've never heard of anyone getting into them, so I always assumed it was a gimmick. I have seen artists use them in concerts though.

Permissible if you're on mushrooms, otherwise avoid.

I imagine it's some kind of code that creates patterns based on the wave forms of the file.

Really I don't see much use for it, I've only seen it on screen at parties to fill up the music select screen.

How common is it among users to watch a Visualizer (computer generated visuals reflective of the music being played) while listening to music? Do you use them often? Only with specific genres?
