Introduction

S2L Shapes are a  real-time equalization of the audio signal using a variation of shapes to display the audio input. By default low frequencies will be displayed at the bottom of the matrix and high tones at the top.

[In MADRIX 2, S2L Shapes was named S2L EQ Shapes.]

Fade - Defines how fast objects disappear. This value represents Beats Per Minute [BPM]. The default value is 150. Valid values range from 1 to 3000.
Size - Defines the size of the objects [in % of the Matrix Size]. The default value is 10. Valid values range from 0.01 to 100.
Pitch - Defines the distance between objects for all 3 axes [in % of the Matrix Size]. The default values are 10, 10, 10. Valid values range from 0.01 to 100.
Border - Defines the size of an object's border [in % of the shape size]. The default value is 1. Valid values range from 0.01 to 100.
Alpha Mix - Defines the upper limit of how much alpha is added to each object [in %]. Alpha Mix will be visible when using additional Layers. The default value is 100. Valid values range from 0 to 100.
Sensitivity - Defines how quickly and accurately MADRIX reacts to the music [in %]. The default value is 50. Valid values range from 0 to 100.

 

 

Distribution - Allows you to choose a certain Distribution Mode for the specific parameter. Often, you can then define a minimum value and a maximum value.

Uniform - Each object has the same size.
Random - Sizes will be generated randomly.

RND - Generates random object sizes each time. This automatically activates Random Distribution Mode.

Shift - Shifts the position of equalizer bands [in %]. By default, lower frequencies are shown to the left and high frequencies are shown to the left. The default value is 0. Valid values range from 0 to 100.

Amplification - Amplifies the audio input and as a result increases the visual intensity [in %]. The default value is 0. Valid values range from 0 to 100.

Invert - Inverts the position of objects.

Mirror - Mirrors objects by creating duplicates on the opposite position.

Shape - Allows you to choose a specific shape for objects. A certain Size is required before a shape becomes visible. The default Shape is Square Filled.

Shape Alignment - Allows you to choose to which side objects are aligned to. This is mainly relevant for 3D. The default Shape Alignment is Front.
