Effect Chain is here

Our most important new feature in this update. Stack multiple effects into a single pipeline, reorder them anytime, and reuse your favorite combinations. We ve also revamped presets - you can now export them as JSON files and import them back anytime, which makes it easy to share your favorite effect combinations with friends. On top of that, I recommend trying our new effects: Feedback Distortion and Split Scan.

Hey Product Hunt! 👋

After 4 months of intense development, I'm excited to finally share this with you.

Why I built DASCA:
I love creating visual effects but always felt frustrated with heavy, complex software. As a developer and designer, I wanted something simple yet powerful - a tool that just works without eating your RAM or forcing you through node-based workflows.

What makes it different:
Built with Tauri, DASCA is lightweight but powerful. Real-time effects with a clean interface focused on getting results fast. Perfect for glitch art, retro aesthetics, and social media content.

Early Access Offer:
$34 (normally $54) until version 1.0

What's next (roadmap ideas):
I'm thinking about adding NDI and Syphon support, live webcam input, custom shader support, and more. Your feedback will help shape where DASCA goes next.

Thank you for checking out DASCA.
