Four pillars
Built for the listening, not the looking.
Every feature in Kord exists to put you closer to the recording. No social feeds, no algorithmic radio — just a precise, beautiful way to play the music you already own.
Lossless, the literal sense
Kord decodes FLAC bit-for-bit and hands the samples to your DAC exactly as they were mastered. No sample-rate conversion, no system mixer in the path, no secret normalization.
- Bit-perfect output — no resampling
- Automatic sample-rate switching to match the file
- Direct USB-C DAC output on iPhone, exclusive hardware access on Mac
Parametric EQ, per band
Shape the sound with real control: choose center frequency, gain, and Q for each band. Correct a bright headphone, tame a room mode, or build a curve and save it.
- Frequency · gain · Q on every band
- Saveable presets per device
- Bypass to A/B instantly
Synced, line by line
Lyrics that track the music in real time. The current line lifts into focus and the rest settle back — a quiet, legible way to follow along without distraction.
- Time-synced highlighting
- Tap a line to seek
- Graceful fallback to static lyrics
A library that organizes itself
Point Kord at your music folder and it reads the tags, groups albums and artists, finds artwork, and keeps everything tidy — so you spend your time listening, not filing.
- Automatic album & artist grouping
- Artwork fetched and embedded
- Browse by artist, album, or decade
