Presets
The Discrete Fourier Transform decomposes a signal into its constituent frequencies. A messy time-domain wave becomes clean peaks in the spectrum — the mathematics behind audio equalizers, MRI, and Wi-Fi. Educational tool.

Reading this result: Two clean sinusoids produce two crisp peaks at their frequencies; peak height tracks amplitude, which is exactly how an equalizer reads a signal.
