With this major update, Dock Party now taps into macOS system audio directly to monitor the Spotify and Apple Music audio streams. No more microphone access required! This offers a number of benefits: Visualizers now work even when you’re using headphones; there’s no drop in audio quality (“call mode”) when listening through duplex Bluetooth devices; and visualizers now respond directly to the music without interference from ambient sounds. Version 3 also includes a new Dock background animation called “Neon”, enhanced pitch and waveform visualizers, and greater leveraging of the GPU to boost the efficiency and responsiveness of the visualizers and animations. The app is fully sandboxed and available in the Mac App Store.
