- AudioSpace 7.2 is here - 18 March 2026
AudioSpace 7.2 has arrived, celebrating the spring by joining the Steam Spring Sale! 🌸 The highlight of this release is a versatile arpeggiator for the synth. Each step can contain up to 8 notes (as a chord), with up to 16 steps per sequence. There are controls for groove, velocity dynamics, octave range, note length, repeat logic, and sequence ordering. The velocity of each step can also be adjusted individually. There's a bunch of new synth presets too, including some arp patterns. They now provide a solid set of sounds to explore and experiment with. I hope you’ll make great use of this synth’s creative power — it’s lightweight only in price! 🎹🎵 If you want the backdrop for all visualizations be something other than the Milky Way, simply drop your custom environment texture into Documents/AudioSpace/media and name it "space-sphere". HDR is also supported via .exr files. The full l…
- AudioSpace 7.1: MIDI, soft synth, and a black hole - 19 December 2025
Just in time for 🎁Christmas✨, presenting AudioSpace 7.1: not only a visualizer, but now also a software synthesizer. Play your favorite tunes and see them visualized right away! The synth sports 4 primary oscillators and 8 LFOs with a good variety of assignment options.

- AudioSpace 6.1 - 3 December 2024
Just in time for the season of celebrations, here's the latest AudioSpace for your delight 🎁. Level up the ambience and display beautiful visualizations for your playlists - the bigger the screen 📺 the better! With the added texture support for shaders, AudioSpace is now not only a visualizer and a media player, but also a full-blown HLSL shader toy with Unreal Engine 5 visual fidelity (e.g. great blooms and reflections), comprehensive set of real-time audio data easily available, and runtime compilation just by re-selecting the shader in the menu.

The long anticipated 🌞summer🌞 release of AudioSpace is finally here, and not a day too soon as tomorrow it's already September.

Many shaders already included, including ray marching examples and the kaleidoscope effect. Experiment freely with existing shaders (they can be reloaded runtime just…
