audioMotion ~ Player & Realtime Spectrum Analyzer


audioMotion is a media player and high-resolution real-time audio spectrum analyzer that allows you to SEE your music! ♪♫🤩

It is completely free, open-source software, created out of my passion for the graphic spectrum analyzers of hi-fi systems from the 1980s.

Features:

Dual channel high-resolution real-time audio spectrum analyzer

  • Media player with subtitles support for audio and video files
  • Fullscreen and Picture-In-Picture display at 60fps, ready for Retina / HiDPI screens
  • Logarithmic, linear and perceptual (Bark and Mel) frequency scales, with customizable range
  • Visualization of discrete FFT frequencies or up to 240 frequency bands (supports ANSI and equal-tempered octave bands)
  • Decibel and linear amplitude scales, with customizable sensitivity
  • Optional A, B, C, D and ITU-R 468 weighting filters
  • Optional effects: vintage LEDs, variable opacity, mirroring and reflection, radial spectrum
  • 17 beautiful color gradients, plus a visual editor to easily create your own gradients
  • Support for M3U playlists (.m3u and .m3u8 file extensions)
  • Visualize audio from your microphone (or “stereo mix”, if your soundcard supports it)

Modern Flyouts ~ Windows Volume Flyout


This application aims to provide a Fluent Design System based replacement for the old, built-in, Metro Design based Audio/Airplane mode/Brightness flyouts in Windows which are shown while pressing the media or volume keys or even the brightness keys or when airplane/flight mode is toggled.

In case of Windows 11, this application will have the same UI but will provide additional features and customizability compared to the built-in redesigned flyouts.

Nestdrop ~ Music Visualization


NestDrop allows you to perform with high-resolution high-fps visuals which react in realtime to the music and then broadcast the video via Spout. Since the Milkdrop engine is at the core you can easily bring in your own Milkdrop presets. Use any audio source to drive the visuals, even live audio. We know that your attention bandwidth is already in high demand and so we’ve streamlined NestDrop to be simple and fast to use.

Key features:

⇒ Up to 4 video decks with Spout at the same time
⇒ High rez output: > 4k @ 60fps
⇒ Live preview and static thumbnails of presets
⇒ Auto-change presets based on beat detection
⇒ Search for presets by name
⇒ Easily map your own hotkeys
⇒ Mark your favorites with 5 colors of stars
⇒ Create multiple queue windows
⇒ Includes curated library of 1900 presets

J-Scope ~ Oscilloscope VST Plugin


J-Scope is a VST oscilloscope plugin, which can prove invaluable to anyone who develops audio software and has a need to diagnose problems or visualise waveforms.

In operation it is very similar to a real oscilloscope, and most controls will be familiar to anybody who has used a hardware ‘scope. The addition of a control for phosphor decay time allows the examination of rapidly changing waveforms as well as slowly evolving sound envelopes.

J-Scope accepts a stereo signal, and can display it in several modes:

  • Two separate traces, L and R
  • Single trace, sum of L and R
  • Single trace, difference between L and R
  • X/Y (Lissajous) plot, L vs R
  • X/Y (Lissajous) plot, Sum(L+R) vs Diff(L-R)
