AudioGrafik is an immersive audiovisual experience that transforms music into real-time visuals. With direct integration of the SoundCloud library, you can freely explore an endless array of tracks, artists, and genres—and watch them come alive as unique graphic compositions. Every sound becomes a moving landscape, a shape that pulses and evolves with musical energy. Whether you’re a visual artist, sound designer, music lover, or simply curious about digital art, AudioGrafik offers an open space where sight and sound meet. The app uses a generative visual engine that analyzes music in real time and turns it into abstract visual patterns. No two tracks produce the same result. Each playback is a living interpretation—a visual journey through rhythm, texture, and frequency. Key Features: • Full access to the SoundCloud library (via their public API) • Free search of tracks and artists • Real-time visuals perfectly synced with the music • Varied visual styles: abstract, fluid, rhythmic • Fullscreen mode for total immersion • Clean, distraction-free interface • Optimized for smooth performance on iOS AudioGrafik collects no personal data and requires no user account. Just launch the app, search for a track, and let the music take over. This is not your typical audio player. It’s not just a waveform visualizer either. It’s a tool for inspiration—a creative playground—a bridge between sound and image. AudioGrafik: See the sound. Hear the image.

Wave Box is a dynamic dual waveshaper plugin that can be used for both symmetrical and asymmetrical distortion. A waveshaper is a type of distortion in which the input signal is mapped to the output by applying a fixed or variable shaping function. Wave Box features two separate waveshapers that can be mixed together while being modulated by 2 LFOs and 1 Envelope Follower. You can design your own waveshaping curves by combining and adjusting 12 pre-defined functions (tanh, erf, sinh, sin, linear, abs, invert, floor, round, ceil, gauss 1, gauss 2). Wave Box can range from mild tube-flavoured overdrive to extreme digital harshness.
