How to use G-force with spotify
Moderators: BTT, andy55, b.dwall, juxtiphi
Hello 4326
Spotify is a streaming audio software, normally G-Force is used with certain media players. I don't know if the following will help. The best advice I can give you is to contact: http://www.soundspectrum.com/support/contact.html
G-Force as an Application
Although most users use G-Force as a visual plugin inside an audio player, G-Force also exists as a standalone application that visualizes any sound source (e.g., line-in, CD audio, microphone). This is useful when you want to visualize audio that doesn’t exist in the form of an audio file (e.g. mp3, WAV) and is typically useful for live performances events or social gatherings. See the license agreement for the terms of use and visit the SoundSpectrum website for the latest versions and announcements. If you upgrade to G-Force Platinum, the standalone version is included with G-Force Platinum.
Instructions
Run G-Force Standalone. If you have trouble locating it, search your system for "G-Force Standalone". On Windows, use can select Start | All Programs | G-Force in order to easily access the standalone version (on Mac OS X, G-Force Standalone is on the G-Force Platinum install volume).
With G-Force Standalone running, press SHIFT A to switch audio input sources.
You can also switch audio input sources by right-clicking (or control-clicking) on the G-Force window.
You can also switch audio input sources by using the G-Force Toolbar’s advanced settings section.
Use the + - keys to adjust G-Force’s visual responsiveness to suit your personal taste (this adjusts how reactive the visuals are to the audio input source). You can also adjust the visual responsiveness using the G-Force Toolbar.
Use the [ ] keys to adjust the preamp scale. See the customizing section for a description of the response vs. preamp scale.
In most cases, adjusting the visual responsiveness (described above) should give you the desired result and you will not need to change the preamp scale. You’ll only want to adjust the preamp scale if line-in level is abnormally high or low (e.g., you have a poor microphone that only gives you a 10% of the signal level).

Thanks for the reply BTT.
I was hoping for a solution that wouldn't require purchase a microphone (mainly because of the potential response delay i.e. the audio from speakers has to go to -> microphone -> software processing -> G-force visualization).
It would be amazing if spotify allowed integration of visualization plugins such as G-force, I wonder if soundspectrum has ever approached spotify.

Thanks, DanPin and BTT! That's the correct answer!
