AirSound — tilt drives the mix
Tilt your MacBook and stereo follows. A short loop pans left and right; level the machine and the sound drops to silence in the center. Built for headphones and playful demos — part of our Crazy apps line.
What it does
Motion smooths into a pan control, with a dead zone so quiet center stays quiet. The engine loops the opening segment of the bounce sound for a tight, rhythmic feel.
Stereo motion
Roll left → energy in the left channel. Roll right → the right channel swells. Best on headphones or real L/R speakers.
Center silence
Near level, output mutes so the sound lives at the sides — like a ball resting on a flat track.
15-second loop
Only the first portion of the track is scheduled and repeated — predictable and punchy.
Install
Grab the disk image, drag AirSound.app into Applications, then eject the volume.
- If Gatekeeper blocks the app: System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open anyway.
- Requires a MacBook-class motion sensor; many desktops report no tilt data.
