Free Online Music Visualizer Maker
Turn your music into a video, free and online. Choose from waveform, spectrum, bars, circular visualizers and more, adjust the colours and layout, then export the finished result. There is nothing to install and no account to create.
MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, OGG, FLAC. Up to 50 MB. Your audio is processed on your device.
How it works
Three steps, and the first two take about a minute.
- 1
Upload your music
Drop an audio file onto the editor. It is read by your browser and decoded locally, so the file itself does not go to a server.
- 2
Customize your visualizer
Pick a style or start from a template, then adjust colour, size, position and how sharply it reacts. The preview follows the track as it plays.
- 3
Export your video
Choose a resolution and frame rate, decide whether to include the audio, and download the result.
Visualization styles
Every preview below is the actual renderer running on sample data, not a screen recording. Load a track and it reacts to that instead.
Spectrum Bars
Vertical frequency bars, the most recognisable music visualizer shape. Low frequencies on the left, high on the right.
Starburst
Sharp spikes radiating from a centre, mirrored into a star. The most recognisable shape for release art and cover videos.
Circular Spectrum
Frequency bars arranged around a ring. Works well centred over artwork.
Tunnel
Frames receding towards a vanishing point, each one sized by a different frequency. Gives a sense of depth a flat spectrum cannot.
Ribbon
A thick flowing band that twists with the waveform. Softer and more organic than a line.
Orb
A glowing core that swells with the level, ringed by circles that each track a different part of the spectrum.
Needles
Hundreds of fine radial lines. Reads as a shimmering halo rather than as individual bars.
Wings
Two mirrored curves down the left and right edges, leaving the middle of the frame clear for artwork or text.
Chevron
Nested arrows stacked outward from a point, each driven by its own frequency band.
How it reads the audio explains what each style is responding to.
What a music visualizer is
A music visualizer reads a track as it plays and draws something that moves with it. Loud parts push the shapes further, bass and treble drive different parts of the picture, and the result is a video you can put on YouTube, Instagram or anywhere else that wants moving images instead of a static cover.
This one runs online, in the browser tab you already have open. You pick a style, set the colours, drag it where you want on the canvas, and the preview reacts while the song plays. When it looks right, you export.
Formats it reads
MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, OGG, FLAC. Files up to 50 MB and ten minutes. Whether a particular file opens also depends on which codecs your browser ships, and you get a clear message rather than a silent failure if one will not decode.
How it reads the audio
Underneath, the visualizer runs a fast Fourier transform on the decoded audio. That splits each moment of sound into frequency bands, with bass at the bottom of the range and treble at the top. The visualizer maps those bands onto whatever it draws, so a bass hit swells the low end of a spectrum while a hi-hat flickers at the far side.
You decide how sharply it responds. Sensitivity for bass, mids and treble is separate, so you can let the low end dominate or hold it back. Smoothing evens out the jitter between frames. Attack sets how fast a shape jumps on a transient, and decay sets how slowly it settles afterwards. Loose values give a twitchy look, tight ones give something calmer.
The frequency range itself is adjustable too. Narrow it to the sub bass for a kick driven look, or open it wide so the whole track has a say in what moves.
Getting it out
Video with audio. Rendered at 480p, 720p or 1080p in whatever aspect ratio your canvas is set to. On Chrome, Edge and Firefox it encodes offline with WebCodecs, usually several times faster than the length of the track. Older browsers fall back to recording in real time.
Transparent video. A clip with a real alpha channel, WebM or ProRes. Import it into your editor and put the visualizer over your own footage. See transparent music visualizer for how that works and what the format costs you.
What you can control
Basic controls are visible by default. Anything more specialised sits in a section you can open when you need it.
Real time preview
Every slider updates the canvas while the track plays. You are looking at the finished frame, not an approximation of it.
Thirty nine visualizer styles
Waveforms, spectrum bars, circular rings, star bursts, ribbons, particles, and a set of 3D scenes drawn on your graphics card. Each one has its own controls rather than a shared set of generic sliders.
Colours you choose
Solid, two colour gradient, or a blend mapped across the frequency range. Set opacity and glow separately so a look can be loud or quiet.
Your own background
Drop in album art or a photo and adjust scale, blur, brightness and contrast. The image stays on your machine.
Transparent export
Render the visualizer on its own as a video with a real alpha channel, WebM or ProRes, then drop it over footage in your editor.
Position control
Drag the visualizer anywhere on the canvas, or set position, size, rotation and scale numerically. The background does not move with it.
Frequency controls
Adjust bass, mid and treble response separately, set the frequency range, and change how quickly the visualizer reacts.
Video export with audio
Record the composition with your track mixed in, at 480p, 720p or 1080p, in the sizes YouTube and Instagram expect.
One hundred and eleven templates
Complete starting points that set the visualizer, layout, background and motion together. Change anything afterwards.
Who uses it
Musicians
Put a track on YouTube without shooting a video. A visualizer plus your cover art is enough for a release.
YouTube creators
Intros, outros and full length audio uploads at 1920 by 1080, or vertical for Shorts.
Producers and DJs
Short clips of a beat or a mix, sized for Instagram and TikTok.
Podcasters
Audiograms for episode clips. The multi band meter reads well for speech.
Labels
Consistent visuals across a release. Save a preset once and reuse it for every track.
Video editors
A transparent video to composite over your own footage.
