How it works
Three steps to a video.
01
Upload your artwork
JPG or PNG. Your cover art is mapped onto the dubplate label, centred, cropped, and spinning. Swap it out any time without re-rendering.

02
Audio-synced rotation
The vinyl rotation speed tracks the tempo of your track. Loud transients pulse the playhead. Every detail reads as intentional.

9:16 output built in. No cropping, no letterboxing. Download the MP4 and post directly to Reels, TikTok, or Shorts.

Why switch
BeatVisualiser vs After Effects templates
Same output. A fraction of the time.
| Feature | BeatVisualiser | After Effects templates |
|---|---|---|
| Setup time | < 3 minutes | 30–60 minutes |
| No template purchase | Usually paid | |
| Audio sync | Automatic | Manual keyframes |
| Vertical format built in | Manual setup | |
| Render time | < 1 minute | 5–15 minutes |
Does the vinyl actually spin in time with the music?+
Yes. The rotation speed is linked to the detected tempo of the track, and transients cause a subtle pulse in the needle. It reads as synced, not just decorative.
What size should my cover art be?+
Any square JPG or PNG works best. 3000×3000px is ideal but any resolution from 500px up produces a clean result.
Can I customise the vinyl colour?+
Pro accounts can adjust the vinyl colour (black, white, coloured wax) and the background. The free tier uses the default black vinyl.
Does this work for non-electronic music?+
Yes. The vinyl style suits any genre: hip-hop, jazz, indie, classical. The spinning aesthetic works wherever cover art is part of the identity.
What format does it export?+
1080p 60fps H.264 MP4 on Pro. 720p 30fps with watermark on free. Both are in 9:16 aspect ratio, ready for vertical platforms.
Ready?
Your track deserves a better visual than a waveform screenshot.
