About This Software

Feel Your Audio

Fancy Haptics turns whatever your PC is playing into vibration you can feel, live. Games, music, videos, anything. Every explosion, bass drop and footstep, in your hands.

It runs quietly next to your game, costs nothing, needs no account, and works fully offline.

Steam Controller

• High-Detail Haptics: Plays your audio straight through the trackpad actuators, over USB, the Puck or Bluetooth
  
• Trigger Clicks: Hold a trigger and feel a stream of small, varied clicks, like texture, busier and firmer the further you pull
  
• Back Rumble: The grip motors thump on big hits
  
• Plays Nice With Steam: Re-arms itself when Steam starts or quits

DualSense & DualSense Edge

• Trigger Rumble: L2 and R2 vibrate with the beat of whatever is playing, live. As far as I know, triggers that react to your audio haven't been done anywhere before.
  
• Two Vibration Styles: Haptics (fine and detailed) or Rumble (heavy classic rumble that punches on the beat)
  
• Speaker Support: The built-in speaker can play your audio over USB
  
• USB and Bluetooth: Both supported

Steam Deck, Xbox, 8BitDo and More

• Steam Deck: The built-in controls rumble with your audio
  
• Xbox, 8BitDo and Most Other Pads: Rumble with Punchy, Smooth or Bass Only styles
  
• Controller Priority: Connect several controllers, pick your favourite order, and it switches automatically if one drops

Feel It Your Way

• Three Modes: Vibrate (pure feel, near-silent), Balanced (felt and faintly heard), Sound (the controller plays the audio like a tiny speaker)
  
• Pick One App To Feel: Only the game, not your voice chat or notifications. Or feel your whole PC.
  
• Tone Presets: Immersion, Flat and Vocal, plus a 5-band equaliser and more in Advanced Settings
  
• Startup Tunes: Your controller plays a little tune when it connects. Pick from many, or add your own WAV, MP3, OGG, FLAC or MIDI.
  
• Profiles: Save your favourite setups

Windows and Native Linux

• Windows 10 and 11
  
• Native Linux, SteamOS and Steam Deck: A real Linux version, with a background mode that keeps working in Game Mode

Private By Design

No account, no network, no telemetry. Everything stays on your PC.

Made by a uni student as a passion project. If anything feels off, tell me in the discussions.
