01

Works with every music app

Apple Music, Spotify, Safari, YouTube. Phosphor visualizes any audio your Mac plays via the Core Audio Process Tap.

→ core·audio·tap
02

Real-time post-processing

Stack CRT, bloom, vignette, grain and chroma on any scene, then push it further with kaleidoscope fold, exposure, pixelation and blur. Tune every slider. Save the result as a preset.

→ stackable · presets
03

Layer two scenes

Composite a second scene over the first and blend it with normal, add, multiply or screen. Crossfade between scenes with a duration you set, or turn the fade off entirely.

→ layers · blend modes
04

Record to MP4

Capture your visuals with the system audio that drove them. H.264 to an MP4 for posting, or ProRes 422 LT to a MOV for cutting. Saved to your Movies folder.

→ h.264 · prores

Media controls

Play, pause, and skip Apple Music and Spotify without leaving the visualizer. The same controls live in the menu bar.

Metal GPU rendering throughout. It caps at 60 fps, halves to 30 on Low Power, and stops entirely when the window is covered or the screen sleeps.
