Sound Painter

Make some noise and watch it paint. Louder sounds make bigger bursts, higher-pitched sounds make different colors. No microphone? Just tap and drag on the canvas instead.

Your audio stays on your device — nothing is recorded, saved, or uploaded. It's only analyzed live, in your browser, to decide how big and what color to paint.

How it works

  1. 1

    Allow the microphone (optional)

    Tap “Start with microphone” and allow access — your voice and noises will paint the canvas. No mic? Skip straight to step 2.

  2. 2

    Make some noise, or tap and drag

    Louder sounds paint bigger bursts; higher-pitched sounds paint different colors. Without a mic, tap and drag on the canvas instead — faster drags paint bigger bursts.

  3. 3

About Sound Painter

Sound Painter turns noise into color right in the browser. When you start the microphone, it listens for how loud and how high-pitched the sound is — louder sounds paint bigger splashes of color, and higher-pitched sounds paint different colors — and uses that to paint bursts on the canvas as your kid talks, sings, claps, or shouts. Don't want to use a microphone? Tap and drag on the canvas instead — it paints the same way, just driven by your finger or mouse instead of sound.

Is my audio private?

Yes. Your microphone audio is analyzed live, in your browser, only to measure its loudness and pitch for painting — it is never recorded, saved, or sent to any server. Nothing is uploaded. Closing the tab (or tapping "Stop listening") turns the microphone off immediately.
