Intuitive song browsing: Waveform on iTunes ?

There is not and never has been a waveform analyzer feature in iTunes. You can suggest it to Apple here, if you wish:

There is a Visualiser with a spectrum analyzer:

Update: I just tried this on my laptop (iTunes 11, 10.6.8) and it didn't work. I have it on the desktop Mac, which is off at the moment, and has the same configuration but I can't remember if I checked it since updating iTunes: so it may not work for you.

It's an antique and may well not work in current versions of iTunes. But in any case, it's different from what the OP was asking for, which was a waveform display, not a spectrum display.

Yes, that's right - I wandered off the subject a bit... this page:

http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/39220/is-there-an-itunes-visualizer-tha t-displays-the-full-songs-waveform

suggests that it's not possible in a visualizer, but someone has suggested an external program: it's not quite what's asked for as it's not integrated with iTunes:

'There is nothing within iTunes that can do this, but there is an external audio editing program called Fission (US $32), from Rogue Amoeba Software, that will display a full waveform for any file in your iTunes library (without the need to convert the file to another format first). Fission has a free trial. Select a song in iTunes, go to

File: Show in Finder

Of course you could also use other audio editing software in the same way, such as Audacity which is free (though it needs an add-on, 'FFmpeg library', to open AAC files). Fission would be simpler.

Don't count on it. Apple has removed the one remotely similar feature, the spectrum analyzer, in iTunes 11, so it would seem unlikely that the would then add a waveforum display. But I've been surprised by them before, so you can hope.

Regards.
