About this app

Press play - your favorite track becomes a screen full of psychedelic light and motion.
STAELLA is a high-quality music visualizer & music video maker that visualizes your music in real time. No editing skills needed.
Waveforms race, the spectrum dances, one knob turn changes color and motion instantly - your phone becomes a small VJ booth.

■ Endless combinations - design your own visuals
STAELLA isn't footage you just watch - combine five elements into visuals that fit your song and mood, on the spot.
・30 Visuals - full-screen scenes reacting to your music: FLOW, NEBULA, UNIVERSE, WARP, and more
・70 Shapes - waveform, spectrum, oscilloscope, and geometry layers stacked on a Visual
・Knobs - RGB / hue / contrast color control and real-time VFX
・Backgrounds - images (slideshow) / videos / camera feed
・Text - song title + artist name, and time-synced lyrics for songs in a supported lyric database
Visual x Shape x knobs x background x text - the same song looks totally different with every combo, from club-style spectrums and trippy visuals to ambient nebulae. On HDR displays, glows and gradients render beyond SDR brightness.

■ Your music, your style - an audio visualizer for the sources you have
Files on your device, mic input, or the built-in simulation - sources already in your hand, visualized in real time.
・File playback - .mp3 .m4a .flac .ogg .wav .aiff .mod .it .s3m .xm. Load tracks straight from your device - STAELLA doubles as a visualizer music player for your library
・Mic / line input - visualize live instruments, DJ mixes, or sound from your speakers - a live audio visualizer
・Simulation - visuals keep moving from a built-in pattern, even with no audio source
Built-in reverb and EQ (equalizer) upgrade the sound itself. Play it with touch, MIDI controllers (BLE MIDI supported), or a gamepad. Fast, lightweight, and stable over long sessions.

■ Ways to use STAELLA
・Load your favorite track and light up a screen at home or a party
・Run it as a VJ visualizer at clubs, live shows, and streams
・Make no-edit music videos of your tracks or DJ mixes for YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram
・Overlay lyrics and song titles for lyric video-style footage
・Visualize instrument practice or jams live through the mic
・Prop up your phone or tablet as a desk music visualizer, or chill with trippy psychedelic visuals

■ Turn your VJ set into a finished video
Two capture modes for different goals.
・Record - ride the knobs and effects live and keep a one-take improvised VJ set as a single video
・Export - one tap renders the whole song automatically and stops when done. No audio loss, no UI in frame - a polished music video with zero editing
Record to perform, Export to finish. Both support up to 4K with HDR export, and Playlist mode renders whole sets automatically.

Ratings and reviews

been Using Staella for a good while now and loved it. Their new update just made it absolutely useless. The app comes up with a handful of cliche genres and you have to pick one etc. Also, the text portion is all messed up cause there's no option to type in your own text. All in all, it's all but useless now. I want my money back. 😅

The best app that helps me create beautiful videos. The developer react super fast and friendly

I have happily used the app on a regular basis. I bought the full version and all visual packages. They can not be restored any longer. Now there is an insane pricetag on a subscription model only. I can and will not support such practice. This developer acts just like any other company nowadays. Hands away from this rip-off.

What’s new

STAELLA 4.0 is a major update.
Premium features moved from one-time purchases to subscriptions. If you already purchased items, your features remain available.

4.0.7: Redesigned background image cropping. Switch between Fill/Fit, rotate and flip, and adjust framing per recording aspect ratio — all non-destructively.

We keep improving the visualizer, recording, and stability.
