How it listens
Every kick lands on the orb.
Pulsorb follows the main beat of the song, so the bass you feel is the thump you see, and quiet passages stay calm.
Spotify, beat-perfect
Connect Spotify through Spicetify and the orb follows Spotify’s own analysis of each song, with zero delay. You can browse and play your playlists right from the visualizer.
Optional · set up in one clickColours from the cover
Each song repaints the orb with the main colour of its album art. The song, artist and controls sit quietly in the corner.
Play, pause, skip and seek built inYour playlists, right there
Open the Library on the visualizer to browse Liked Songs and your playlists, and play any song without leaving the orb.
With the Spicetify integrationAlive between songs
Pause the music and the orb keeps breathing, slowly drifting until the next song kicks in.
Eases in and out by itselfSmooth everywhere
Colours blend from song to song, details crossfade on every skip, and the menu and visualizer glide in and out.

Questions
Good to know
Do I need Spotify?
No. Any audio mode reacts to anything playing on your PC and shows what’s playing from Windows’ media controls. Spotify mode adds the full player for Spotify, from the website or the Microsoft Store.
What is Spicetify, and do I need it?
Spicetify is a free, open-source tool for customising the Spotify app. It’s optional: without it, Pulsorb tracks the beat from the sound itself. With it, Pulsorb reads Spotify’s own beat data for perfect timing and lets you play your playlists from the visualizer. Spicetify modifies the Spotify app, which Spotify’s terms don’t allow, so you choose whether to use it, and you can turn it off at any time.
What does the orb do when nothing is playing?
It keeps living: the orb slowly breathes and drifts while the music is paused, and comes back to the beat as soon as a song starts.
Will it slow my PC down?
Pulsorb draws with your graphics card and pauses drawing when its window is hidden. On a typical gaming or office PC it runs smoothly at your monitor’s refresh rate.
When can I get Pro?
Pro isn’t on sale yet. Pulsorb updates itself in the background, so when Pro is ready it will show up in the app, with the price and how to buy it.
What data does Pulsorb collect?
None for analytics. Everything runs on your PC. See the privacy policy.
