Our music visualizer
Sonoluma

Watch your music dance.

Sonoluma listens to whatever is playing on your computer and turns it into moving light — a modern take on Cthugha, the visualizer that set 1990s screens on fire.

Audio is processed on your computer.

The screen becomes part of the music

Choose all system audio or a single app such as Spotify, Apple Music or a browser. Sonoluma follows the sound in real time without recording a track or sending it away.

Change the palette, motion and intensity while it runs. Keep the visualizer beside your music player, or switch to full screen and leave the controls out of sight.

The Sonoluma window on a Mac: the title bar names the source, style and palette, and an orange flame waveform burns on black below it

A visualizer that behaves like a native app

The controls are quick, local and available from the keyboard or menu bar.

Listen to what you choose

Use all system audio, one application, or a wired or USB microphone and line-in.

Change the atmosphere

The space bar steps through flame, swirl, ripple and tunnel motion, P and the arrow keys cycle fire, ice and other palettes, V changes the drawing style.

Window or full screen

A normal window while you work; F or a double-click fills the display, Esc brings the window back.

See what is playing

An optional overlay shows the current Spotify or Apple Music track without launching either app.

No account or analytics

Nothing to sign in to, no advertising, no tracking code. H shows every keyboard shortcut.

Where it came from

The glow returns

“An oscilloscope on acid”

That is how Cthugha described itself in the 1990s, when it made a generation of computers pulse with music. Its feedback buffer smeared an oscilloscope trace into colour and flame.

Sonoluma keeps that restless character, rebuilt as a native app for modern audio sources and graphics hardware.

Available on Mac and Windows

The Mac edition is at version 1.2.0 and needs macOS 26 or later. The Windows edition is in the Microsoft Store.

Your audio stays on your computer

Sonoluma processes audio in memory to draw the visual and does not record or upload it. macOS asks for Screen & System Audio Recording permission; microphone access is used only when you choose a microphone or line-in.
