Maybe, I can't find away to direct msg you on itch. You can go to my site www.brandonallen.art and send me a msg through the contact page.

I updated the listing so the visualizer launches in its own window for testing. Personally, I run it full screen on a TV above my stereo. I kept the project HTML-based to keep the barrier for entry low; I wanted it to be simple enough that even my dad could load it on his phone while listening to his records.

So sorry about that! I had a setting toggled incorrectly on the backend. First time mistake 🙃. I have just fixed it. If you refresh your download page or check your itch.io library, the Activation Code should now be visible and accessible to you. Let me know if you still have any trouble seeing it and I'll send it to you directly.

Yeah it’s an option, why would that be helpful for you? What’s the use your thinking of.

Hello from the studio.

I am excited to finally share the &co Lofi Visualizer with you. This project grew out of a desire for a minimalist and reactive companion for long listening sessions. It is inspired by the lofi simplicity of early analog gear and the gritty aesthetic of 90s Winamp visualizers. The design focuses on raw geometry rather than polished digital effects.

I personally built this app to bridge the gap between my analog music collection and my digital display. My current setup is a bit of a workaround. I have an old iMac hooked up to my living room TV (above my record & cd player) with a stupidly long USB cable running to the computer with a shitty old corded iphone earbuds and mic that have the earbud aux cable into a aux-usb. While it is certainly not the most elegant solution, it works perfectly and i found everything hanging around in my desk drawer. When I play my records or CDs, the microphone picks up the room audio and the screen reacts in real time. It transforms helps listening space into an immersive and ambient experience.

This launch version is a public beta. You can run the tool directly in your browser to test the reactive patterns. The tool works with any mic input including built in laptop microphones, bluetooth mic or old corded earbuds. If you want it to react to your internal music player without the use of microphone follow the recomendations in the read-me file. If you find value in the visuals and wish to support the studio, a small donation will provide you with a permanent activation code to unlock the full and unlimited experience.

Thank you for being part of this first release. I look forward to seeing how this fits into your creative spaces. I will upload a video of it running with my record player in the next few days.
