React to Spotify tab audio
Choose the Spotify browser tab in the sharing window and enable tab audio. The visualizer responds to the shared sound in real time.
Share audio from a Spotify browser tab and turn the music into live bars, waveforms, radial effects, and animated visuals without uploading the track.
A music visualizer for Spotify listens to audio shared from Spotify Web Player and turns the sound into moving graphics while the track plays. It does not need access to your Spotify password, playlists, or account data.
Choose the Spotify browser tab in the sharing window and enable tab audio. The visualizer responds to the shared sound in real time.
The tool analyzes the audio stream you explicitly share. It does not connect to the Spotify API or request access to your library.
Switch between spectrum bars, waveforms, circular patterns, particles, terrain, blobs, and atmospheric scenes while music is playing.
Watch the animation full-screen for an ambient display, or record the visualizer and shared audio as a video in supported browsers.
Spotify Web Player in a separate browser tab provides the most reliable setup.
Open Spotify in another browser tab and choose the song, album, or playlist you want to play.
Click Share Spotify Tab, select the Spotify tab in the browser dialog, and make sure Share tab audio is enabled.
Start the track in Spotify, return to the visualizer, then choose a style, color theme, sensitivity, and aspect ratio.
Open the canvas full-screen for live listening, or start recording to save the responsive visual and shared audio as a WebM video.
Fill a monitor or television with full-screen visuals that react while an album or playlist plays.
Use the live canvas as an audio-reactive scene for personal streaming layouts and screen recordings.
Add immediate visual feedback while comparing playlists, transitions, energy levels, and track selections.
Change styles and themes as you explore new releases without downloading every track first.
Sharing the Spotify browser tab is the closest match to the original playback, while microphone and file modes provide useful fallbacks.
| Audio source | How it works | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Spotify tab audio | Captures audio from the Spotify Web Player tab you explicitly share | Live Spotify playback in desktop Chrome or Edge |
| Microphone | Listens through the selected microphone without sharing a browser tab | Speakers, instruments, and browsers that cannot share tab audio |
| Uploaded audio | Decodes a local audio file and provides playback and seeking controls | Reliable editing, preview, and full-track video export |
Browser support for shared tab and system audio varies. Spotify Web Player in desktop Chrome or Edge is the recommended setup.
The browser asks you to choose a tab to share. When you select Spotify Web Player and enable tab audio, the tool analyzes that shared audio stream and draws responsive graphics locally.
No. The visualizer does not use Spotify login, OAuth, playlists, or listening history. You only grant temporary browser permission to the tab audio you choose.
Open Spotify Web Player in another tab, click Share Spotify Tab again, select that tab, and enable Share tab audio in the browser dialog. Sharing a window without audio will not drive the visualizer.
Desktop Chrome and Edge provide the most consistent browser-tab audio sharing. Firefox and Safari support differs, so use microphone or file mode when tab audio is unavailable.
Whole-system audio capture depends on the browser and operating system. For a predictable setup, use Spotify Web Player in a separate Chrome or Edge tab.
Yes. Start the shared audio, then use the full-screen control on the visualizer canvas for an ambient listening display.
In supported browsers, you can record the canvas and shared audio as a WebM video. Recording runs in real time until you stop it.
Yes. Upload mode provides local playback, seeking, preview, and full-track export when tab audio sharing is not available.
No. The visualizer reads the temporary MediaStream inside your browser. Audio analysis and recording remain on your device.
The tool does not grant rights to Spotify tracks. You need the appropriate permission or license before publishing copyrighted audio or monetizing a recording.
