About Photosounder

Photosounder is a unique French audio software tool that converts images into sound and vice versa, enabling a genuinely novel approach to sound design based on spectrogram editing. By treating audio as a visual image in the frequency domain, Photosounder allows users to paint, edit, and transform sounds in ways impossible with conventional audio editors. It was developed by Michel Rouzic and has been used by avant-garde composers, sound designers, and researchers. Photosounder occupies an extreme niche at the boundary of visual art and audio processing.
