Kaleidoscope music visualizer
Bundles of glowing neon lines, mirrored left to right and top to bottom across the whole frame. On every beat each corner slides into a new shape — a jagged star, a diamond, an X, an hourglass, eyes at the sides — and on the strong beats the frame drops to black and the next shape is drawn out from the middle like a laser.
Built into our online music visualizer: switch to any other style at any time.
How it reacts
- BEATS
- A new shape on every beat in loud parts, every other beat in quiet ones.
- STRONG BEATS
- A quick blackout, then the new shape is drawn out from the center like a laser, with a faint scan halo.
- BASS
- Spreads the lines of each bundle apart and pumps the whole pattern.
- SPECTRUM
- Ticks along the outer line and the four bars in the middle move with your song’s frequencies.

Kaleidoscope visualizer FAQ
What shapes does it make?
Ten: a jagged star, a concave star, a diamond, an X, an hourglass, eyes at the sides, wave pillars, wings, a crown and nested diamonds. They come in a shuffled order and never repeat back to back, and with the color changes no two bars look alike.
When does it change?
On the beat of your song: every beat in loud parts, every other beat in quiet ones. The first beat of each loud bar and every drop get the blackout and the laser redraw.
Can I turn the blackout off?
Yes. Set Blackout to Off in the editor and the shapes change without going dark. Soft is the default; Strong goes almost fully black.
Can I use my cover art as the background?
Yes. Add cover art in the editor and choose whether it sits dimmed or blurred behind the kaleidoscope visual.
Does it work for TikTok, Shorts and Spotify Canvas?
Yes. Switch the format to 9:16 for TikTok, Shorts and Reels, or to Spotify Canvas for a short vertical loop without audio.
