VizAmp

anapp

The Winamp visualizer, back from 1999.

Music players changed. Now you stream, you listen, you scroll past the artwork, but some songs you still want to watch. VizAmp brings back the one Winamp feature nobody replaced: a full-screen visualizer that moves with the music, rebuilt to run on a 2026 machine.

Point it at your library, pick a preset, go full-screen. The Winamp light show is back from 1999, ready to kick some llama's ass in 2026.

Every preset is the work of its original author in the MilkDrop community (MilkDrop by Ryan Geiss). VizAmp renders them with Butterchurn by Jordan Berg and includes the Cream of the Crop collection curated by Jason Fletcher for projectM. What you buy is the player built around them. Made a preset and want it out? Email info@eascend.co.

// four skins, one app

Dress it for the year it belongs to.

Half the fun of the old players were the themed skins. VizAmp keeps the ritual: four built-in looks, each tuned to a different era. Tap T to cycle them mid-song and land on the one that takes you back.

Modern VizAmp2026 · default

Near-black glass and phosphor mint, tuned for the screen you're on now. The visualizer as it looks today.

Y2K Chromecirca 2003

Brushed silver and blue gloss, straight out of the skin-everything early 2000s.

Retrolate 90s

Bronze chrome and warm amber phosphor: the glow off a beige tower at 1 a.m.

Purple-navy, silver buttons, a pure-green readout. The original, near enough to touch.

// why it's good

Plug in. Press play. Watch it breathe.

01
Listens to every beat
Real-time audio analysis drives every preset: amplitude, frequency, and beat mapped straight onto the visuals, exactly like Winamp did it.
02
1,100+ presets, nine moods
From calm Ambient to chaotic Vortex. Browse by feeling, favorite the ones you love, and let a category auto-cycle like a visualizer left running overnight.
03
Full-screen, now in 60fps
GPU-rendered and butter-smooth on a second display or projector. The screensaver that listens, minus the 1999 frame rate.

macOS 13 or later (Apple Silicon and Intel), Windows 10/11, and 64-bit Linux on Intel/AMD or ARM (Ubuntu/Debian, Fedora, Arch, or AppImage for other distros). The same license key works on all of them.

No. VizAmp is its own app and isn't affiliated with Winamp. It's a new visualizer built in the spirit of the classic desktop music plugins, made to run natively on modern macOS and Windows.

You get a license key by email after checkout. Paste it into VizAmp once and it's activated, good for your personal machines.

Yes. The app runs as a 5-day free trial before activation, so you can see it on your own music before buying a key.

Only once, to validate your key on activation. After that it runs fully offline and visualizes your local library.

Because the key unlocks the app immediately, sales are final, but the free trial lets you confirm it works for you first. Questions? hello@eascend.co.
