Moodist Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Moodist hosting on xCloud gives you a self-hosted ambient sound mixer for focus, relaxation and sleep, served from your own domain. Deploy Moodist from the OneClick catalog and xCloud starts the pinned v2.4.0 image as one static nginx container with no database and no volume and publishes it over HTTPS. Mixes and preferences stay in each visitor's browser, and anyone who can reach the site can use it.

What is Moodist?

Moodist is a free, open-source and self-hostable ambient sound mixer. Its README lists over 75 ambient sounds, persistent sound selection, sharing selections with others, custom presets, a sleep timer, a notepad, a pomodoro timer, media controls and keyboard shortcuts, and describes it as privacy focused with no data collection. Self-hosted Moodist is the mixer served from your own domain instead of a hosted sound app such as Noisli or Calm. It is licensed under MIT.

On xCloud this template deploys Moodist v2.4.0, pinned by digest, as one container that serves the prebuilt static application, with no database, no volume and no accounts. Mixes and preferences are stored in each visitor's own browser, so there is nothing on the server to back up. Moodist has no built-in login, so use xCloud Basic Authentication or IP management if the site should not be public.

From Sign-Up to a Live Moodist Mixer In Just 3 Easy Steps

Self-hosting a static sound mixer normally means a container, a domain and a certificate before a single sound plays. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick Moodist from the OneClick catalog. Enter a site title and domain — there are no other fields to fill in.
Step 02
We Deploy It For You
One click. We bring up the official Moodist 2.4.0 image pinned by immutable digest and publish it over HTTPS on your domain. There is no database and nothing to generate.
Step 03
Mix Your First Sounds
Open your HTTPS URL, select a few sounds, adjust their individual volumes, and press play. Save the combination as a favorite in that browser for quicker access next time.

Everything Moodist Does, On Your Own Server

Moodist runs in full here — a self-hosted ambient sound mixer, on infrastructure you control.

Over 75 Ambient Sounds
Mix sounds across nature, rain, animals, places, transport, objects and noise categories in one interface.
Independent Volume Per Sound
Adjust each selected sound's level separately to build the exact mix you want.
Browser-Local Favorites
Save frequently used sound combinations as favorites, stored in that browser for quick recall.
Stateless By Design
No database, no server-side accounts and no persistent volume — just the static application served over HTTPS.
No Sign-Up Required
Open the URL and start mixing immediately — there is no account to create or password to remember.
Restrict Access If You Want To
Moodist ships with no built-in authentication; turn on xCloud Basic Authentication or IP Management if the site shouldn't be public.

What You Can Do With Moodist

Block out noise while working
You combine rain and café sounds, set each level and let the mix play in a browser tab while you concentrate.
Wind down for sleep
You mix soft sounds and use the sleep timer so the audio stops by itself after you drift off.
Share a favourite mix
You share a sound selection with a colleague so they can open the same mix from your own domain.
Run a team focus tool
A company serves Moodist on an internal address so staff can use it without installing an app or creating an account.

Moodist vs Alternatives

Noisli: Noisli is a hosted ambient sound service. Moodist is self-hosted and stores nothing on a server, and this page makes no feature-parity claim.
Calm: Calm is a hosted app. Moodist is a single-purpose ambient sound mixer you serve yourself from your own domain.
myNoise: myNoise is a hosted noise generator service. Moodist is a self-hosted mixer with custom presets, a sleep timer and a notepad, and this page makes no sound-quality comparison.
A rain-sounds video: A looping video needs no server of your own. Moodist lets you layer several sounds and set each level separately.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

Brian Geovanny

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.

Kevin Pineda

I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

How Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud

Ed Ellingham

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.

Dumitru Butucel

xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.

Waqar Ahmed

Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍

Rahul Singh

So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.

Massimo Villa

Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.

Gerson El

I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.

Tony Lewis

I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.

Jared McDowell

I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently

Kevin Heinrichs

I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.

Dan Spinoza

Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Rahil Maknojia

Came from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.

xCloud gave me what no other hosting platform could: the flexibility of a VPS with the convenience of managed WordPress. As a solo founder running an entire business on one server, that combination is an important unfair advantage.

I use Server Avatar and xCloud and I'll sooner use xCloud than Server Avatar personally.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

Is Moodist free?

Yes. Moodist is open source under the MIT licence, with the licence file linked from this page at the pinned v2.4.0 tag, and its README calls it completely free and self-hostable. xCloud bills for the Cloud VPS under it, not for Moodist, and there is no per-listener fee.

Can you self-host Moodist with Docker?

Yes, and this Moodist Docker hosting template does it for you: the ghcr.io/remvze/moodist image, pinned by digest, runs as one nginx container serving the static app on your own server, with HTTPS in front. It is not a Moodist cloud account, and audio plays in the visitor's browser.

How much RAM does Moodist need?

The template manifest asks for 256 MB of RAM as a floor, because nginx only serves static files and audio playback runs in the visitor's browser. This page sells the 6 GB tier, which leaves enormous headroom above that floor for other apps.

Do I need to sign in to Moodist?

No. There is no account or setup, and Moodist has no built-in authentication, so anyone who can reach the site can use it. If the site should not be public, enable xCloud Basic Authentication or IP management in front of it.

Where are my Moodist favourite mixes saved?

In your own browser, not on the server. Moodist stores mixes and preferences locally for each visitor, so they follow that browser profile only. Clearing site data or switching browser loses them, and the sharing feature is the way to pass a mix to someone else.

Is a Moodist site public by default?

Yes. The site is open to anyone who can reach the address, and it has no login to close it. Use xCloud Basic Authentication or IP management when access should be restricted. The server holds no personal data, because mixes stay in browsers.

What survives a Moodist restart?

The server restarts the same static service from the pinned image, and nothing on the server is lost because nothing is stored there. Visitors keep their mixes in their own browsers. After a restart, check HTTPS and play a mix to confirm it works.

Does Moodist collect data?

Its README describes it as privacy focused, with no data collection. This template keeps no database and no volume, so the server stores nothing about listeners. Check the page and your own proxy logs if you need to be sure for your compliance needs.

How do I back up Moodist?

Nothing on the server needs backing up: there is no database and no data volume, so there is no volume to back up. Mixes and preferences live in each visitor's browser, so preserve that browser profile or use the sharing feature if those settings matter.

How do I upgrade Moodist?

A running install stays on pinned v2.4.0 until you adopt a newer template version, so catalog updates leave it alone. Newer upstream releases exist. Read their notes first, then open the site and play a mix after the move. There is no stored data to migrate.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
