Is it possible to read waveforms from audio?

I'm currently trying to create an audio visualizer, but so far I can't find any function, property or API that would help me read the waveforms of the audio. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Thanks!

Unfortunately, ROBLOX sound manipulation is very limited, and does not support waveforms or any special effects.

The only way to visualize audio so far is to manually enter values into a table, keyed to the sound's TimePosition.

They may add more in the future, but right now, it does not exist.


Hope I helped!

Expanding on this idea, probably most effective solution would be to send the asset's url to a http server, have it process the audio and key the waveform information to playback time and send that back to roblox. But yeah, that would be pretty darn advanced project.
