Naught Audio Player

Signal from the black. Exclusive path. Fixed-point signature. Readahead that doesn’t flinch. Drop a file into the chamber — the lattice wakes when the music does.

THE ENGINE

Cold exterior.
Living mathematics inside.
Warm exterior.
Living mathematics inside.

Built for long exclusive soaks and a wet path that arrives at sample zero — not after the silence of a staggered boot.

WASAPI Exclusive

Desktop Concert path owns the DAC for low-latency, native-rate playback when the hardware allows.

RT-safe readahead

Custom buffering: large chunks, multi-fill, deep exclusive cushion — decode never under the audio lock.

Kernel + IR space

Early FIR energy plus long IR and late FDN on the desktop signature path — space without the grain of shortcuts.

Q30 fixed-point

Integer wet bus with wide accumulate — AVX when present. Designed sound, not float-and-hope.

Dual-transport crossfade

Pro natural advance: next leg ready early, equal-power dry blend, wet soft rebuild. Default 0.3s.

Signature color stack

Tape · Warmth · Console · Horn · Kernel · Limiter · Space — Concert defaults so the machine sounds like itself from Play.

LOAD

No demo track.
Your signal only.

Drop audio to arm the lattice. Idle breath until then — stronger motion when the music runs.

Exclusive ON silences other apps on that device until Shared or quit. Toggling Exclusive stops playback by design — press Play after the billboard says ready. Quit releases the device (closeAudioDevice).
