	The audio is split into 31 bands ranging from 20Hz up to 20kHz. When you play the sound track a bar graph of the amplitude of that frequency is displayed in the black rectangle. The lower portion of the bar graph is Green, with the mid an upper sections appearing as Yellow and Red respectively. The height of the bar graph is affected by the Scale setting.
