Performance-first rendering

AudioBloom centers the Milkdrop / projectM path: import presets, rate favorites, queue the next visual, auto-advance, and crossfade Deck B blends without relying on unstable native projectM transition workers.

Audio that fits the room

Use a microphone or interface, capture the full system mix, or target one running app through Core Audio process taps. The selector shows source type first, then the matching microphone, output device, or app.

Made for visual sets, not desktop wallpaper.

AudioBloom keeps the performance path practical: load Milkdrop presets, stage a second deck, crossfade into the next look, and send the result to the room through a clean output, projector, or Syphon host.

  • Source routing for microphone/interface, system mix, or one app.
  • Deck B staging with pre-crossfader gain and blend modes.
  • Preset browser, favorites, history, setlists, and auto-advance.

Projector + Syphon

Mirror the composed workspace frame to Clean output, Projector, and Syphon so host apps and external displays stay aligned during transitions, Deck B blends, and camera layers.

Preset workflow

Search by preset or pack, favorite and rate visuals, revisit recent history, save setlists, and use the assistant for inspectable mood-based drafts.

Local AI lab

AudioBloomAI includes experimental local audio-semantics controls for scene-aware transitions and preset steering. They are optional, on-device, and still labeled as lab features.
