Soundboks Lightboks - Sound to Light / Tracksync

Lightbok's proprietary sound-to-light technology, TrackSync, was developed to allow for automated hands-off music lighting: "Listening to your music isn't enough. TrackSync technology creates visuals from your audio, translating basslines and breakdowns into pro-level lighting. It works with any speaker, too. Transform any space into the party of your dreams." Anyone who has worked with event lighting knows this targets the long-standing holy grail of VJing. Makers and DMX tool vendors have promised it for decades. How close does Lightboks come to making good on it? I tested Lightboks with multiple music styles, indoors and outdoors. The video shows a real-time capture of my hobby room, the Soundboks app UI, and a desktop audio visualizer. All sources were recorded simultaneously so you can see how app tweaks map to light behavior and whether TrackSync actually follows basslines, breakdowns, and build-ups. Findings: Beat detection is strong. It does not confuse loudness with bass. Section awareness is weak. The algorithm often “assumes” rather than listens, which causes strobing and blinking at musically wrong moments. Patterns keep running during breakdowns and ramp-ups. When I pause playback, a comparison device (white LED light on the ceiling) stops instantly, while Lightboks continues its pattern for a short while before calming down. Patterns appear duration-locked. Once triggered, Lightboks seems to play them to completion regardless of incoming audio. Auto timeouts override the music. Patterns and colors switch on a timer even when the track does not change, which makes the otherwise great beat detection feel random. No blackout on silence. The light never turns fully off, missing the simplest high-impact effect. Energy levels miss the middle. Level 1 is a static lamp, Level 2 under-reacts, Level 3 over-reacts. The sweet spot sits somewhere between Dance and Rave. No user controls yet. There are no per-preset edits for sensitivity, colors, or gating, which most systems provide to handle different “moments” in music.
