Before compiling the code:
- Workloads required before compiling:
- If you want to use CMake, look at the name from Desktop development with C++ category below check this box. This will be obligatory after integrating it with projectM-Eval instead of ns-eel2 library (if possible) (VS2022 only)

- First, use any audio output if you want before running
- Easily run BeatDrop!
- If you did the first step, change it back to the default audio output, instead remain what it was.

You can use BeatDrop for parties, karaoke, music videos, DJ mixes and so on, but you must credit this repo if you used this! I am not even angry anymore if you didn't credit this, but use #beatdrop, #beatdropmusicvisualizer or BeatDrop as tags, then I'll look at them.
BeatDrop is a stand-alone implementation of the amazing Milkdrop2 Winamp plug-in.
It lets you experience the stunning visual 2D effects with your music player of choice. No additional configuration steps needed! Just start BeatDrop and play your music.
