MJSFX

Sounds & effects studio

MJSFX is a native Apple Silicon Mac app for making game sound effects. Start from built-in generators, layer multiple voices with their own effects chains and LFOs, or mutate and randomize to explore (undo on everything). Export WAV at 44.1/22/11 kHz in 16 or 8-bit, including per-layer stems. Light and dark themes plus a theme builder on the site. Custom MIDI controller support. Sound files are JSON. No AI in the app, but the direct download ships with an MCP server.

Howdy Product Hunt 💥!

Matt here, dev behind MJSFX.

Why I built it: I started coding small indie web-based games at infinitetoast.com, then quickly graduated to native iOS (https://toastjuggle.app; Android version coming soon!). When I needed a game sound or effect I'd try rfxgen or jsfxr, which are solid tools, but I wanted something "more" and macOS native and nothing existed.

What MJSFX is:

  • 🤘 Inspired by and stands on the shoulders of jsfxr, rfxgen, and sfxr

  • 🎮 Generators to get you started: pickups, lasers, explosions, jumps, hits, etc.

  • 🥞 Layer multiple voices, each with its own controls

  • 🔗 Per-layer and main sound effects chain

  • 🌊 LFOs that can modulate almost anything including itself and other LFOs

  • 🎲 Mutate or randomize; undo on everything

  • 💾 WAV export at 44.1/22/11 kHz, 16 or 8-bit, plus per-layer stems

  • ⌨️ Keyboard shortcuts for (almost) everything

  • 🎨 Themes: light, dark, and a theme builder on the site

  • 🎛 Custom MIDI controller support (create your own config)

  • 🔌 No in-app AI, but the direct download version ships with an MCP server

  • 📄 Sound files are JSON
