Your local library lives.
NewAmp is a local-first music player that turns the music you own into a private, reactive, shareable desktop universe. No streaming. No cloud. No telemetry.
Hardware soul
Hardware soul, not chrome.
Deck skins built like real hi-fi objects — a turntable with a weighted tonearm, a 45 RPM jukebox with backlit buttons — not flat rectangles pretending to be one. The Eviland visualizer engine turns your music into full-screen scenes driven by spectral-flux onset detection, and can pop out into its own detached projector window. Resonance goes further still: the whole UI — chrome, glow, transport — breathes with the track, throttling itself on weaker hardware so it never costs you a frame you actually need.
Audiophile honesty
Audiophile honesty, not audiophile vibes.
NewAmp ships a native WASAPI-exclusive bit-perfect output path on Windows — a first-party route around Chromium's audio stack, not a marketing claim. The signal path stays honest by default: format, bitrate, and sample rate are shown plainly, DSP is structurally disabled the moment it would touch the bits, and nothing gets resampled without saying so out loud.
Local-first scale
Built for the library you actually have.
60,000+ real tracks, scanned incrementally in about 5.4 seconds. Virtualized grids and instant album-open mean a library that size never feels like a web app pretending to be fast. No account, no cloud sync, no telemetry — the whole thing runs on your machine, for your files.
More NewAmp
A local-first player has to look and feel like one. A few more scenes.
New in v2.1
Auto-Pilot
The visualizer now measures its own frame cost, live, and adapts quality to whatever it's running on — full detail on a gaming rig, still smooth on a decade-old laptop, with no settings screen to dig through.
