For Tabletop RPG Game Masters

Professional audio crossfading.Built for the table.

Stage your next track silently, then fade between decks with one keypress. No fumbling with music apps while your players are waiting.


Running audio at the table is awkward.

You're managing a playlist in one tab, your notes in another, and fielding player questions all at once. The moment you need to switch from ambient dungeon atmosphere to a combat track, you're fumbling through a music app mid-sentence. The mood you spent three sentences building evaporates in the blink of an eye.

Most GMs eventually settle for one of two unsatisfying compromises: a single looping playlist they set-and-forget, or constant manual track switching that pulls their attention away from the table. Neither approach lets the music breathe with the story.


An arsenal of audio tools at your disposal.

Every feature is designed for use at a live table, with one hand on the keyboard and your full attention on your players.

Two-Deck Crossfader
Stage your next track silently on the inactive deck and fade between them in one keypress. YouTube, Spotify, and local files supported.
Playlist Management
Build your full session soundtrack in advance. Drag-drop reorder, rename tracks for instant recognition, and load to decks without the mouse.
Keyboard-First Controls
Every action has a remappable hotkey. Fade, load, swap decks, adjust volume, and navigate your playlist without ever taking your eyes off the table.
Loop & Mute Per Deck
Loop ambient tracks indefinitely. Mute a deck without stopping it and the pre-mute volume is saved and restored instantly when you unmute.
Session Saving
Store complete playlists under named sessions and switch between campaigns instantly. Sign in free to sync across all your devices.
Built for Touch
A dedicated tablet and phone layout with tap menus and long-press drag, so you can run your soundtrack from whatever's on the table.

Your audio flows with the story.

Follow a session from the first ambient loop to the final fade. Click any moment to see what's happening.

Session timeline with five moments. Use the left and right arrow keys to move between them, then Tab once more to read the details.

Loop

The tavern murmurs softly in the background

Deck A loops a low tavern ambience on repeat while the party introduces their characters.

Layer Tracks · Pro

Fade in crickets and a lute to your layered track

"It's a warm summer night. The windows are open and crickets chirp outside. A bard strums her lute quietly in the corner."

Crossfade

One keypress, no dead air

Silently stage a combat track on Deck B. The second the door bursts open, pressing F crossfades from ambiance to tense combat music.

Soundboard · Pro

A thunderclap, right on cue

Use the soundboard to indicate an approaching storm, layered on top of the combat music without pausing either deck.

The Conclusion

The dust settles

Stage a rain soundtrack on Deck A as combat ends. Fade to it as the party gets their bearings and tend to wounded NPCs.


For GMs who want total control.

Pro features give you professional-grade audio tools built specifically for the demands of a live tabletop session.

Volume Balancing
Analyzes the average debicel level of every loaded track and automatically adjusts volume sliders so your combat music and ambient loops never clash in perceived volume.
Spotify Integration
Connect your Spotify Premium account and play tracks from your existing Spotify library alongside YouTube content on either deck.
Layer Tracks
Combine tracks from both decks into a single layered unit that plays simultaneously. Stack ambient wind under dungeon drums, then fade the whole layer as one.
Soundboard
Map keyboard keys to precise YouTube audio clips. Trigger a dragon roar, a thunderclap, or a door creak on top of your ambient music, without interrupting it.
Fade Sound Effects
Pick any clip from your soundboard to fire automatically on every fade or cut. A whoosh, a vinyl scratch, a magic chord, plays on top of the transition without interrupting the decks.
Custom Loop Range
Loop just the best 30 seconds of a track. Set a start and end point and Fantasy Fader crossfades seamlessly from end back to start, on repeat.

Free to use. Pro for power users.
