I'm happy to announce the release of version 0.5 of Spek, a multi-platform acoustic spectrum analyser.

Changes since the previous release:

• Significantly speed up spectral analysis by using the optimal number of frequency bands.

• DTS files support.

• Distribute Windows version as a ZIP archive in addition to the MSI installer.

• Mac OS X installer.

• Use Pango to render text.

• Brand new icon.

  

This is the first version of Spek that features a Mac OS X port. All binaries in the app bundle are compiled completely from scratch using a slightly modified version of Aaron's excellent bockbuild project (the same tool that is used to package Banshee for OS X).

If your project uses the GNOME stack and you want to port it to Mac OS X -- give bockbuild a try. Check Spek's bundle script for gory details.
