Feature Overview
I’m chasing complete, calm control of a music collection.
Kanora is the native toolkit I’m crafting so you can capture discs, tend metadata, keep local drives in step with your iCloud library, and route your collection wherever you listen. Look for the status badges—Experimental, In Development, and Future Roadmap—so you always know what’s ready, what’s brewing, and what’s next inside the Kanora Lab.
CD Capture & Artwork
Pristine disc imports with automatic artwork and credits that honour original pressings.
Analog Recording
In DevelopmentIn-development vinyl + cassette recording that lets you capture sessions straight into Kanora with full tagging and filters.
Track & Album Editors
Dedicated editors for single tracks, albums, and bulk selections with instant preview of every change.
Unified Library Actions
Upload to your personal iCloud, download for offline, or remove from a device—each action mirrors the badges you see throughout Kanora.
Native Across Devices
Mac, iPad, iPhone, and even visionOS layouts that feel at home on every screen without resorting to web wrappers.
Ownership & Privacy
No telemetry, no subscriptions. Your music, artwork, and notes stay local or in your own cloud—never mine.
Analog to AirPlay
ExperimentalPlay your decks through Kanora and back out to AirPlay. The live input path is marked experimental while it matures.
DLNA Revival
In DevelopmentAn in-development streaming path that brings DLNA and AllPlay speakers back into rotation.
Quiet AI Touches
Future RoadmapFuture opt-in helpers for liner notes, duplicate spotting, and tasteful sequencing.
Complete Workflow
From disc to device in three steps.
Step 01
Capture
Rip a disc, import an existing folder, or sample a live source—without disturbing your own folder layout.
Step 02
Organize
Use the editors, badges, and filters (On This Device, iCloud, External, Lossless, Not Present) to curate every corner of the library.
Step 03
Sync & Play
Your metadata flows through your personal iCloud, while upload/download/remove actions move files between SSD, USB, and the cloud on your terms.
Technical Details
Modern foundations. Zero technical debt.
Format Fidelity
Lossless playback with headroom for quiet masters and bold remasters alike.
Recording
Vinyl and cassette capture (in development) that shelves every take beside your CDs.
Presence Badges
Honest indicators for On Device, Cloud, External, and Not Present selections.
Ownership
Files live where you place them. Kanora never rearranges your shelves or locks you in.
Kanora Lab
Analog-to-AirPlay experiments, DLNA revival, and AI concepts are developed here.
AI Philosophy
Assistive, private, and always optional—more valet than co-pilot.
Support Model
One-time license, lifetime 1.x care, and transparent updates for every feature.
Development Status
In active development. Early access coming soon.
I share progress notes, detours, and test builds inside the Kanora Lab. It’s still in development, so thanks for hanging tight while I finish carving out the rest of the feature set. When it launches, it’ll be a one-time license—no subscriptions, ever.
