Karleido: New Visual Creator Tool on the Block

Jiagual — Tue, 19 May 2026 20:44:25 +0000

I built Karleido, a browser-based tool for creating audio-reactive visuals and music videos with real-time shader based scenes.

It’s aimed at musicians, producers, and visual artists who want to create and perform unique looking, polished audio-reactive visuals without building a full VJ setup.

It's got a studio and performance mode with full keyframe automation, clip editing, midi mapping, presets, VJ Loop library, effect stack and many more goodies.

Check it out: karleido.com

Curious what the VJ community thinks: where would this fit in your workflow — content creation, quick sketches, live prep, or not at all?
