High Videlity vs Milkwave

Play with your music. High Videlity turns whatever you're playing into a live visual — and then hands you the controls. On every screen you own. 500 hand-picked presets are included, and you can point the app at your own .milk library and it will index the whole thing. Browse by category, author, energy and look, with live-rendered thumbnails. Build playlists. Let auto-advance drive, with an ink-style morph between presets instead of a hard cut. IT REACTS TO THE SONG, NOT THE VOLUME Most visualizers watch a level meter. High Videlity separates songs in your own library into four parts — vocals, drums, bass and instruments — and lets each one drive the visuals independently. Bass pumps the zoom. Drums drive the warp. Vocals rotate the color. Separation runs on your Mac, on-device, and the result is cached so every other device you own picks it up without redoing the work. On top of that, the visuals are tuned by what the song actually is — its tempo, its musical key, its energy — so a ballad and a breakbeat don't move the same way. BUILT FOR EACH SCREEN On Apple TV it's the shared living-room visual, drivable entirely from the Siri Remote — and you can stream from the Mac so the TV gets full stem reactivity. On Vision Pro, run it in a window, paint it across the walls of your actual room, or step all the way inside an immersive dome. On iPhone and iPad you get the full Studio in your pocket — and a remote for the TV. On Mac it can visualize anything playing — a browser, another app, the room around you through the mic — and publish itself into Resolume or VDMX over Syphon. MAKE YOUR OWN Studio lets you bind any stem or musical attribute to any part of the visual, live. Blend two presets on a two-deck rig. Paste in a Shadertoy-style GLSL shader and bind stems to its parameters. Publish what you make, and browse what everyone else has published. SHARE IT AS VIDEO Export any moment as a video clip — sized for Reels, TikTok, Shorts, or up to 4K — and send it straight to Photos or any app. The render is frame-accurate to what you saw, with your preset, your bindings, your mix. QUIET BY DEFAULT No account. No sign-in. Anonymous usage reporting is off unless you turn it on, and your audio files never leave your machine. Bright-flash limiting is built in and on by default. New here? A bundled demo track shows the whole thing off before you play a note of your own. — Apple Music features require an Apple Music subscription. Stem separation runs on macOS and works with audio files you own.
