Drop in your track. Pick a beat-synced visualizer. Export a clean 1080p or 4K MP4 with audio baked in — ready to upload to YouTube. No watermark, no Premiere subscription, no waiting for an online queue. Free.
YouTube's audio-visualizer tool was removed in 2020. Everyone who needs one now has to either pay for a desktop app or upload to a slow online renderer. Shimga gives you neither.
The default canvas is YouTube's primary ratio. Need Shorts? Switch to 9:16 with one click — every layer adapts to fit.
The export panel lets you pick 720p, 1080p, 1440p, or 4K. 4K takes longer but uploads sharp.
The free tier has zero branding on your export. Anything you make is fully yours — no "made with X" tag to crop out.
Online renderers force you to upload an audio file then wait 20 minutes for it to render server-side. Shimga renders locally — no upload, no queue.
Bass, mids, treble, and amplitude are isolated via FFT. Every layer reacts to the band you choose — bass kicks, vocal lines, hi-hats all become independent visual triggers.
Start from a preset, remix a community template, or build from scratch. Every template is saved as data — load on another device anytime.
No signup. A default 16:9 scene loads instantly.
Original music? Drag it in. Royalty-free? Same. Shimga reads the BPM and starts reacting.
Pick a preset or build from scratch. Add your channel logo, song title, and artist credit. Tune colors to match your channel branding.
Pick 1080p or 4K, hit Export, drag the MP4 onto YouTube Studio. Done.
Yes — Shimga exports H.264 MP4, YouTube's preferred upload format. Up to 4K, with audio baked in. No watermark on the free tier.
Yes. Pick 4K (3840×2160) in the export panel. Renders take longer at 4K but produce a sharp, clean upload that scales nicely on YouTube. Read more: how to export at 1080p or 4K.
Use audio you own or have licensed. The visuals Shimga creates are yours — only the music can trigger a Content ID match. Source from a royalty-free library or use your original tracks.
9:16 (vertical). Select it in the studio before exporting. For regular YouTube uploads, use 16:9. You can render the same project in both ratios by switching and re-exporting.
Yes. Add an image layer for cover art, a text layer for the title and artist. Both stay static while the visualizer reacts around them.
Yes. Save a template (free with an account). Load it for every new track, swap the audio + title, re-export. Your whole catalog gets one visual identity.
Free, no signup, 4K-capable. The studio is one click away.
