FAQs

What is a sound wave canvas?

A canvas print of the audio waveform of any recording — voice, song, or sound. The waveform is the visual shape of the audio frequencies, rendered as a horizontal pattern of vertical lines.

What recordings work best?

Recordings 5-30 seconds long. Shorter creates cleaner visual shape. Longer adds detail but can look busy at smaller canvas sizes.

Can you scan a song to get the waveform?

Yes. Provide a song title and we'll source the audio. Or upload an MP3/M4A directly.

Does the waveform actually represent my exact recording?

Yes. We render the waveform from your specific audio file using our audio-visualization pipeline. The shape will be unique to your recording.

Can I add my own inscription?

Yes, up to 12 words. "The day we said yes," "my dad's last message," etc. Standard add-on.

What real customers say

"My mom passed last fall and I had one old voicemail of her saying 'I love you, call me back when you can.' AmourPrint turned the waveform into a 16x20 canvas with that line printed under it. Hangs in my hallway. Feels like she's still home." — r/GriefSupport
