Step-by-step guides from your first visualizer to lyric videos, cover art, Spotify Canvas loops and platform-ready exports.
Getting Started
From opening the editor to your first exported video
Make Your First Music Visualizer
The five-minute path from a song to a finished, watermark-free video — open the editor, pick a template, load your track, and export.

What every panel in the Novus editor does — audio, reactivity, engine parameters, colors, text, assets, layers and export — so nothing feels like a mystery.
Start tutorialMusic Videos
YouTube, vertical shorts and synced lyric videos
Make a YouTube Music Visualizer
The complete 16:9 workflow — pick an engine, load your track, add colors, text and a logo, dial in YouTube-ready export settings, and upload it right.
Start tutorialMake a Vertical Visualizer for Shorts, Reels & TikTok
Turn a track into a 9:16 vertical clip built for short-form feeds — trim to your hook, keep overlays inside the safe zone, and export platform-ready.

Use the Lyric Video wizard and on-device Whisper transcription to get lyrics on screen at exactly the right moment, styled to stay readable, then export.

Colors, text, logos and audio-reactive tuning
Recolor Your Visualizer with Themes & Engine Settings
Restyle any scene in one click with the nine palette presets, then fine-tune individual colors — and keep them consistent with your branding.
Start tutorialAdd Titles, Artist Text & a Logo
Brand any visualizer with a song title, artist name and logo — positioned precisely, styled for readability, and repeatable across every video.
Start tutorialTune Audio Reactivity & Beat Sync
The difference between a generic bouncing visual and one that feels mixed to your song — Sensitivity, Reactivity, Response Style, Frequency Focus and beat motion, in the right order.
Start tutorialPick & Switch Engines and Modes
Nine engines, six modes each — 54 looks in one control system. What an engine is, what a mode changes, what each costs your machine, and how to switch without losing your work.
Start tutorialAlbum & Branding

Build square cover art in the Cover Art & Canvas Studio — a layer-based editor with animated backgrounds and one-click templates — and export a high-resolution PNG.

Build the short vertical loop that plays behind your track on Spotify — a seamless 9:16 MP4 — using the Canvas Studio or the audio-reactive editor route.
Start tutorialTools & Export
Export settings, stream overlays and the audio tools
Export Settings Explained
Shape, Quality, Frame Rate and Format — what each control does, how the final frame size is calculated, and the exact combination to pick for every platform.
