Nunc Sonat is a menu-bar music remote for Mac. It shows what's playing on your Apple TV, a HomePod, or Music on this Mac. You can pause, skip, seek, and change the volume from the menu bar. A mini player can sit on the desktop, with the playlist, lyrics, and track details in a side panel. You can pick AirPlay outputs and set the volume for each speaker.

  • Control a HomePod from the menu bar

  • Follow lyrics beside the mini player

  • Pick AirPlay speakers and set volume

Nunc Sonat features


Now playing in the menu bar

The current song shows in the menu bar: artwork, title, artist, album, and progress. You can play, pause, skip, seek, and change the main volume from there, on an Apple TV, a HomePod, or Music on this Mac.


A mini player on your desktop

There's a mini player you can move and resize. You can keep it on top of other windows, and turn down the panel's opacity.


Playlist, lyrics, and track info

A side panel sits beside the mini player. You can browse the current playlist and jump to another song. Lyrics can come from a local folder, your Music library, or LRCLIB, including timed .lrc files. The current line stays highlighted. The Info tab shows details like track number, BPM, genre, language, and when the song was last played. You can copy any of those values.


AirPlay outputs and speaker volume

Choose which speakers the music plays to, and set the volume for each one. A Sonos, a phone, or another AirPlay speaker can be an output, but not a now-playing source of its own. One of the devices you control plays to it: an Apple TV, a HomePod, or Music on this Mac.


Lists and Playlist Rules

Lists shows the playlists in your Music library, plus any you've made in Nunc Sonat. Double-click one to play it on this Mac, a HomePod, an AirPlay speaker, or an Apple TV. Playlist Rules can build a new playlist from the lists you pick, filtered by play count, BPM, rating, genre, or how long it's been since a song was played. You can save the result to your Music library.


Control Music on another Mac

If another Mac is also running Nunc Sonat, you can control Music on that Mac too. The two apps pair with a 6-digit code.
