What is AVS AVS is a music visualisation plug-in for. Unlike most plug-ins however, AVS allows you to play around and make your own visuals, from a set of pluggable components combined with a scripting system.

In the early 2000s, AVS was considered one of the most awesome, most flexible music visualisers on the planet, and the resulting variety in visuals (called presets) was amazing. Even more, AVS allows you to compose and preview presets completely real-time and with script code, updating even between individual keystrokes. This stroke of genius turned it into an eminently accessible tool that drew the attention of enthusiasts from around the world.

In forum communities such as Winamp.com and DeviantArt, coders and non-coders hung out and shared presets of ever increasing complexity and style. Over the years I've made several packs of AVS presets and plug-ins, many of which are included in the official Winamp distribution. My visuals are trademarked by technical complexity: 3D rollercoasters, convincing dancers, sci-fi shootouts, cartoony rendering, etc.
