Name | ### analyze()
Examples |
    import processing.sound.*;
    FFT fft;
    AudioIn in;
    int bands = 512;

    void setup() {

      in = new AudioIn(this, 0);

      // start the Audio Input
      in.start();

      // patch the AudioIn
      fft.input(in, bands);
    }

    void draw() {

      for(int i = 0; i < bands; i++){
        // The result of the FFT is normalized
        // draw the line for frequency band i scaling it up by 5 to get more amplitude.
        line( i, height, i, height - spectrum[i]*height*5 );
      }
    }

    void mousePressed() {

    }
Description | Queries a value from the analyzer and returns a vector the size of the pre-defined number of bands.
