You just finished a track. You need a teaser for Instagram, a Canvas for Spotify, a video for YouTube — now, not next week. Rondo turns your audio into animated visuals, directly on your phone. No upload, no account, no server: your unreleased master stays with you. It works in the studio with no signal, and on a plane. WHAT IT DOES • Analyses your track on the device (kick, mids, highs, spectrum, tempo) • 26 scenes that genuinely react to the music: console bars, a ring that pulses on the kick, an oscilloscope beam, a heat-map spectrogram, VU meters, particle bursts, a tunnel, a lava lamp, a nebula, a beatbox crew whose singer takes the mic when your lyrics come in, a turntable wearing your artwork, a night skyline whose windows are the equalizer, a see-through cassette, a eurorack wall… — plus two stickers for your own video: a now-playing card and the track's waveform • Scenes in 3D: the turntable, the VU meters and the cassette are real objects, lit like in a studio. Bars and Orb go 3D too • 22 backgrounds, from aurora, film grain and vinyl grooves to a synthwave sunset, a concert seen from the crowd, sparks thrown by every kick and your artwork breaking into grains on the drop — two of them light (paper, halftone), turning the whole palette over — plus a CRT effect and a film finish (bloom, halation, grain) over everything • Release kit: one tap renders the teaser on the drop, the Spotify Canvas looping on it and the full YouTube video — or from a Shortcut • Straight to an Instagram Story or Reel after the export • Media: your photos and videos cut to the track, each with its effects, its grade and its transition. Or start from a video, from Photos or Files: its sound becomes the track, its picture stays in sync behind the scene, and five scenes take it as their material — Multicam, Grid, Echo, Prism, Colour map. Or turn it into light: glow, neon, trails • A scene timeline: one scene on the intro, another on the drop, each with its own settings and a crossfade at the join • Auto edit: one tap writes both timelines from what your track already knows — a scene for each part, cuts on the downbeat, effects dosed by section. All of it editable afterwards • The shape of your track, named — intro, build, drop, groove, break, outro — and its tempo: find the drop lands your teaser on the build, and cuts and loops land on the bar • Live mode: the scenes on the sound of the room — a session, a set, a party. Nothing is recorded; over HDMI the visuals go to a TV or a projector. Free • Room mode: the crowd scans a code, and every phone in the room plays your look to the music it hears, all in time. No network, no account. Free • Synced lyrics: transcription on the device, each word timed on the voice, a karaoke sweep, and a proofread by your phone's own language model • Your identity: artwork, title and artist name burned in, eight typefaces, entrance animations, ten signed palettes, five of your own — or the colours of your artwork • Frame: the scene full screen, in a movable widget, or inside one of 16 devices — consoles, phones, an arcade cabinet, a camcorder… — your name on it, all of it playing to the track, flat or in 3D • Waveform trimming and fades; exports in 9:16, 1:1, 16:9 and Spotify Canvas, up to 4K • Presets: six curated looks to start, and yours reused on every release in one tap — or shared with a link • Set mode: chain your projects full screen on a TV (AirPlay, HDMI), or export the whole set as one video, YouTube chapters ready to paste • Backup to YOUR iCloud — not to our cloud NO SUBSCRIPTION The free version exports without a watermark. Rondo Pro is a one-time purchase that unlocks every scene and background, the 1:1, 16:9 and Canvas formats, 4K, brand identity and presets. WHO IT IS FOR Beatmakers posting snippets, independent artists on release day, podcasters and labels rebuilding the same look every week, DJs putting their sets online.
