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: tracks start playing while they download and the next one is fetched ahead,

so server albums begin instantly and 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

— PLAY TO YOUR SYSTEM —

Send what you're playing to a UPnP/DLNA network player — a streamer, an

amplifier, a speaker in another room — and keep the controls on your phone

Your server sends the music to it directly; this iPhone only passes the

instructions along, so nothing is re-encoded or re-routed on the way

Players that keep their own queue take the whole album at once and finish it

on their own, even with your phone locked or closed

Everything stays live: track, position, volume, and lock-screen controls

— 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

Bit-Perfect is claimed only when it can be verified — when the output can't

be confirmed, Tessera says so rather than guessing

— 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.
