Products that do what Kaiju – Audio Visualisation System does
My new audio visualisation app Kaiju has just been released on Steam. Designed as a more relaxed spiritual successor to Milkdrop it works on realtime system audio. Windows only at the moment unfortunately, but next on the roadmap is cross platform support and microphone audio input. I hope you will enjoy it and if so, come say hello on discord: https://discord.com/invite/45yymHzf38

I built a free and open-source, high-resolution, real-time audio visualizer on the web. Try it out here: https://audiovisualizer.org The main feature is a very high resolution frequency domain visualizer. It even works in realtime with the microphone. The application also features a synthesizer that can be played with the keyboard or MIDI files and allows for adjustable harmonics and ADSR envelopes. I used React.JS as the framework, P5.JS for rendering the visualizations, the WebAudio API for audio analysis, Meyda.JS and Essentia.JS for feature extraction, Tone.JS for synthesis,…

Hey all. For the last few years, I have been developing a software synthesizer as a side project. It's taken longer than I both hoped and feared, but earlier this week I finally shipped 1.0. Details about the synth itself are up on my website, https://lhiaudio.com/. For those who are unfamiliar, in music production, there are host applications (such as Logic Pro, Ableton Live, or REAPER) in which most of the work (such as recording or sequencing MIDI data) is done. These applications generally have some built-in tools for the actual generation and processing of audio data, but…

As a side project for a hockey manager game, I created a small audio tracker, "HM Tracker," which was used to make the game's music. It is a browser-based tracker-style music workstation. All sound is procedurally generated from oscillators - no samples, no plugins. The UI lets you edit patterns on a step grid, pick instruments and chords, then export as a standalone JS music engine or WAV file. Built with vanilla JS and the Web Audio API (best experienced on a desktop browser). Made in the '90s demoscene spirit (at least the looks, anyway). Would love any feedback!

Hi, I'm co-founder and CTO of Kaizen. The project started as just a weekend project with me and a music producer friend. It has since grown into a community of artists looking to share their music more frequently and engage with their fans more consistently. We've just launched on ProductHunt: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/kaizen-3 We would love any thoughts or feedback!

I've talked about this one on Reddit a bit, and I think it's finally about ready to talk about here. I started this project around 2013 for internal use, and GPL licensed it because I have no desire to own my own software business. Kaithem is, for the most part, somewhere between a SCADA and a Home Assistant clone, heavily focused on easy deployment with minimal tinkering. It allows for Python code based if-then events you edit via the web, along with web-editable HTML dashboards, but also includes loadable modules for more point-and-click style editing. One of these is Chandler, a…

Hey y'all, So - the main idea of this is to make a WebAudio synthesis/sequencer tool which humans can use via the UI, but where the big unlock is for agents to drive with MCP It's semi decent as "make a groovy jazz track", especially for retro sounds - but the real use case is more like "make a jetpack whoosh effect I can control via code at runtime - where the sound changes based on character health or how much fuel is left" In other words, the target audience is not musicians (except maybe of the Max/MSP sort), but more like creative coders who want to shape the sound iteratively…

Hey HN! I created Hanasu.ai after my 9-5 job as a side project. Previously I'd used Duolingo to learn Japanese, but failed spectacularly when I actually spoke with my roommate from Tokyo. Now, after OpenAI improved their Realtime audio model in December and reduced pricing, I spent my entire winter break building. So how does it work? Just choose a daily topic and converse with the AI model: (1) Didn't catch a phrase? Double tap to reveal a transcript. (2) Couldn't understand? Double tap for translations powered by Google. (3) Can't recall that intricate Chinese/Japanese character? Just…

Hey everyone, I've built a multiplayer audio recorder/looper for songwriting in your browser. It started as a side project in March last year but 3 months ago I quit my job to work on it full-time. I wanted the simplicity of a Portastudio and the utility of a loop station to serve as an easy way to get song ideas together without needing to send files back and forth, or get lost in the complexity of traditional DAWs up front - just record or upload your ideas and share the link with whoever you want to collaborate with. Would love to hear what you think of it! Any feedback, thoughts, or…

A buddy and I decided to hack on this little project this weekend, putting in about 12 hours. It's running Ruby on Rails, deployed to Heroku. We tried to keep things super lean with different gems handling user accounts, mailchimp for an email list and super lean styling/layout. Everything should work well enough on mobile devices, too, so give it a look! Right now the magic all happens via the Soundcloud API (of course), but we're exploring different ways to make this appeal to a broader audience of music listeners. We'd love your feedback! Here's the site:…

Hey everyone, my friend and I created a GitHub Wrapped video for developers to showcase their activity on the platform in a more fun way. The implementation is open-source (https://github.com/rendleyhq/github-wrapped-2024) if you're interested in how it was built. To get a bit geeky, we used masks, keyframe animations, luma key shaders to remove the background from the confetti video, and some other techniques. Also, everything is rendered directly in the browser!! I'm curious to hear your thoughts on the rendering performance, especially if you're running this on your…

Hey folks! I've spent the last 8 months building a VST plugin called "The Infinite Crate" on top of Magenta's Lyria RealTime music model on the Gemini API. Doug Eck's research group has been building MusicLM and variants since 2017 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yz-fHidp1M8) I bridged a JUCE/C++ audio processing foundation with a React/Typescript UI, using Zustand to sync state. The plugin streams down generated audio from the Lyria RealTime model in the Gemini API via websockets You can try it as a VST3 on Mac/Windows or AU/Standalone on Mac. It works in…

Six months ago, I went full-time indie, but I haven't released anything so far. The products just never felt good enough for me to publicly say this is what I'm doing now. To get out of this mindset, I decided to make an app for myself in a week, add monetization, release it and move on. The app idea was simple: Reflect on your day by answering the same four questions out loud. The answers are transcribed and with regular use you can see what influences you the most and take action. All on-device, as otherwise I wouldn't feel comfortable sharing my thoughts. I had all core features working…

Hey there! I'm Sami. Over the past year, I've been busy building apps for clients, and I always found it challenging to discover a great animated component library. So, I took it upon myself to learn how to create beautiful animations. It was tough at first, but with persistence and a lot of practice, I eventually started crafting some really impressive animations for my clients! Now, I'm excited to share some of my favorite creations with you on my platform, DynaUI. I'd love to hear what you think!

URL: http://mixcastr.com/ The end of the weekend is here, and my project (roughly 15 hours) is done. It's called Mixcastr, and it uses the Sound Cloud API to serve songs from their platform, based on user queries. So yeah, it's really just a glorified search interface - but I had fun making it. Hopefully next weekend I'll expand on its functionality/utility. Breakdown: Sinatra, Twitter Bootstrap, SoundCloud JavaScript SDK, and Heroku, Polymorphs, CloudMade

So, I've never written a line of Rust in my life. I wouldn't know an `&mut this` from a mutandis. But I saw a tweet about a month ago that said, in this new era of AI, you'd be able to just take a library that you love, throw a TUI around it, and call it an app. So I spent about 200 bucks last month, here's what I came up with: Imbolc is a DAW that runs entirely in your terminal. It talks to scsynth over OSC and ships 58 instruments and 39 effects. VSTs are a work in progress, also GarageBand loops if you want to recreate "Umbrella". The codebase is about 60k? lines of Rust across 5 crates,…

I'm a musician by night, software developer by day, and one of the minor frustrations I've always had was trying to find a simple tuner app for my phone. Looking at both the iOS and Android app stores, you'll find a lot of the top tuner apps are rather bloated with ads or subscription callouts. I thought I'd create a dead-simple minimalistic mobile chromatic tuner the way I would like it - open the app and tune my guitar. My work is in web with NodeJS and React, so I chose React Native since it was the easiest to understand coming from React. Flutter was also an option since the company I…
