WavePort Sync

Overview

What the product does.

WavePort Sync — formerly SoundSync by Botify — runs in the Windows system tray and mirrors the SoundCloud likes and playlists you follow into a local folder as MP3s with embedded metadata and artwork. Follow each source as a download, stream-only, or both, so you can follow someone without filling the disk. Playback lives in the companion WavePort Player, which ships with the app — true shuffle, gapless and crossfaded transitions, custom playlists mixing local files and streams, and audio output device selection. Downloads run through one serial queue with pacing, hourly caps, bandwidth limits, and adaptive throttling so it stays a considerate guest on the API.

Key capabilities

• Background syncing

  Lives in the system tray, monitors SoundCloud usernames (their public likes) and playlist URLs, and fetches new tracks on a configurable interval.

• MP3 with metadata + artwork

  Downloads as MP3 with embedded metadata and album artwork. Title, artist, and album are preserved where SoundCloud provides them.

• Quick Follow presets

  One-click follows for featured creators — PRIME, HIGH TEXAS, The VIP Room, and DJ Karen From Finance — plus the PRIME Jukebox playlist. Add your own usernames and playlist URLs alongside them.

• Per-source follow modes

  Each user or playlist is followed as download, stream-only, or both. Following someone's likes without filling the disk is a per-source setting, not an all-or-nothing choice.

• Playback lives in WavePort Player

  The main app syncs; the companion player plays. It ships with the full app, opens from the tray or the Library page, and also stands alone — see the WavePort Player page for what it does.

• Local files or streaming

  Play the MP3s already on disk, or stream a track straight from SoundCloud without downloading it first.
