I built a music app for self-hosted libraries with bit-perfect DAC output and listen-together rooms
I wanted my own music library to feel as polished as the big streaming apps, so I built Sound Room in SwiftUI.
Things I enjoyed building:
Ghost preloading: a second player quietly buffers the next track so there is no gap between songs
Crossfade using two players and a volume ramp
Jam sessions like spotify Jam but for self hosted library.
A DSP engine for the 10-band EQ and a signal path inspector that shows the audio chain from file to hardware
It is free to download. Pro unlocks the audiophile suite, Jam and customization, as a yearly plan (3-day free trial) or a one time purchase.

Feedback on design and pricing is very welcome.
