About this app

Press play - your music becomes a screen full of light and motion.
STAELLA is a high-quality music visualizer & music video maker that visualizes any music in real time, even from Spotify or YouTube Music. No editing skills needed.
Waveforms race, the spectrum dances, one knob turn changes color and motion instantly - your phone becomes a small VJ booth. Try every feature with a 3-day free trial.

■ 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.
・35 Visuals - full-screen scenes reacting to your music: FLOW, NEBULA, UNIVERSE, WARP, and more
・121 Shapes - waveform, spectrum, 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, lyrics
Visual x Shape x knobs x background x text - the same song looks totally different with every combo, from club-style spectrums to ambient nebulae.

■ An audio visualizer for any sound source
No need to switch music apps - just keep playing and open STAELLA.
・Background music visualization - visualize anything playing on your device: Spotify, YouTube, YouTube Music, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and more
・Mic / line input - visualize live instruments or DJ mixes; great for club and event VJ sets
・File playback - .mp3 .m4a .flac .ogg .wav .aiff .mod .it .s3m .xm
・Dummy mode - run visuals without syncing to music
Built-in reverb and EQ (equalizer) upgrade the sound itself. Fast, lightweight, and stable over long sessions.

■ 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.
* Neither mode can record audio from streaming playback

Ratings and reviews

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.

One of the best visualisation for audio 👏 🙌 👌 with lots of quality themes, but has 3 disadvantages: 1 - very unstable ( the app is crushing / closing by it self). 2- the equaliser cannot be modified 3- the media files cannot be added as a folder , and only individually.

Wonderful & elegant, occasional crashes here and there when using internal storage. I would recommend advertisements & options for uninterrupted listening. This could help ease monetization. All around, a wonderful visualizer & potentially a solid replacement for other media players. I could see this being a part of a well-known brand, incorporated into an existing music service. I've enjoyed this app, mini player would be nice & play in the background would be helpful. There's so much potential
