Tessera : Hi-Res Music Player

Tessera is a hi-res music player built for people who care how their music

actually sounds — and for anyone ready to start caring.

It plays your files the way they were mastered: no hidden resampling, no

system mixing, no "enhancement." When your hardware allows it, audio goes to

your DAC bit-perfect — the exact samples in the file, untouched.

— NEW TO HI-RES? START HERE —

Most players quietly convert your music before it reaches your ears. Tessera

doesn't. Add your files, press play, and see exactly what's happening at

every step — format, sample rate, and what your device actually receives.

You learn as you listen. A good USB DAC makes it better; curiosity is enough

to begin.

— BUILT FOR REAL HI-RES —

DSD playback: DSD64, DSD128, DSD256 — native via DoP to capable USB DACs, or

high-quality DSD-to-PCM conversion when you prefer

PCM all the way to 32-bit / 768 kHz — FLAC, ALAC, WAV, AIFF at their

original sample rate and bit depth

Bit-perfect, exclusive output mode that hands the clean signal straight to

your DAC

Audio Details view: source file, output device, and the full playback chain

— resampled or untouched, you always know

Real-time spectrum display reaching into the ultrasonic range, with a

hi-res zone above 20 kHz

— YOUR LIBRARY, EVERYWHERE —

Play files you already own, or stream from a NAS or DLNA/UPnP media server —

fast multicast discovery finds your server in seconds

Built for real listening: the next track is fetched ahead while you listen,

so server albums keep playing with the screen locked, hour after hour

Apple Music, too: browse your tracks, albums, artists, playlists, and

genres, and play them straight to your DAC

Browse by Folders, Tracks, Artists, Albums, Genres, and Format — with fast

on-device search across your whole collection

A customizable sidebar — rename, reorder, hide sections to fit how you

listen

— SEE WHAT YOU'RE HEARING —

Clean three-line track rows: title, artist, and the details that matter

Format badges tell you exactly what's playing: "DSF DSD256", "FLAC 24/192",

a gold Hi-Res badge for true high-resolution files, and Lossless / Hi-Res

Lossless / Dolby Atmos for Apple Music

Turn each badge on or off — so rows show only what you want

— SMART PLAYBACK —

True gapless playback for lossless and DSD — live albums and classical works

flow the way they should — plus optional crossfade

DJ Flow: analyzes the energy, brightness, tempo, and dynamics of your tracks

so similar songs play together in a smooth, considered sequence

Mood grouping that sorts your library by how it feels

Sleep timer, play-count history, and resume-where-you-left-off

— DESIGNED WITH CARE —

Liquid Glass interface that stays out of the way of the music

Choose your accent color, or let each library section carry its own

Light, dark, and automatic themes — localized in 10 languages

— YOUR MUSIC, YOUR DEVICE —

No account, no ads, no tracking — Tessera itself needs no subscription

One purchase. Yours to keep.

You don't need golden ears or a wall of gear — just your music, a little

curiosity, and maybe a good DAC. Tessera is for the recording, not the

algorithm. Hear what's really there.
