Auto Waaave is an audio reactive version of Waaave Pool.  Two seconds of incoming video is stored in a framebuffer and can be used either to combine real time input with a delayed and processed versions of itself or set to internal feedback mode which allows one to explore a rich and diverse world of complex generative patterns.  A high quality audio ADC takes in an audio signal and it is processed through FFTs which allow one to dial in how much the low, mid, and high frequency content of the audio can individual affect each one of the 16 parameters!
