Effect Settings

This MADRIX Effect uses the following, individual controls:

▪Colors - Opens the Color Table to specify the colors. The default color is White.

▪BPM - Defines the speed. The default value is 1200. Valid values range from 0 to 9999.

▪Count - Defines the number of objects. The default value is 5. Valid values range from 1 to 20.

▪Size - Defines the size of objects [in %]. The default value is 20. Valid values range from 1 to 100.

▪Outer Glow - Defines the outer shimmer of objects. The default value is 20. Valid values range from 1 to 100.

▪Inner Glow - Defines the inner gleam of objects which are not filled. The default value is 20. Valid values range from 1 to 100.

▪Border - Is only available for 2D outlined shapes or 3D unfilled shapes. Defines how thick the outer line [border] of objects is. The default value is 20. Valid values range from 1 to 100.

▪Influence - Is only available for Motion Type Swarm. Defines a radius in which objects influence other objects [in %]. The higher the value, the more visible the swarm behavior. The default value is 15. Valid values range from 0 to 100.

▪Separation - Is only available for Motion Type Swarm. Defines how close objects can be to each other [in %]. The higher the value, the more space will be between objects. The default value is 5. 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. This is the default setting. Linear - A linear distribution is used to increase the size regularly. Quadratic - The majority of objects will be smaller than the rest. SQRT - Using a square root function the majority of objects will be larger. Cubic - Uses a cubic distribution with mixed sizes. Random - Sizes will be generated randomly. RND - Generates random object sizes each time. This automatically activates Random Distribution Mode. Scale - Is only available for Random Distribution Mode. It allows you to generally increase or decrease the size of objects.
	Shape - Allows you to choose a specific shape for objects. A certain Size is required before a shape becomes visible. The default setting is Circle Filled. - Set up at least 2 colors if you want to define a second shape. Both shapes and both colors will then be morphed together. By default, the second shape equals the first shape. - Deselect Auto Adjustment [Color Mixing Link] to set up a different, second shape. - When using at least 2 colors or using the Color Table Random Mode [RND], you can set up the Color Mixing Sharpness. It allows you to choose how intensely the colors are mixed [Very Blurry, Blurry, Slightly Blurry, Medium, Slightly Clear, Clear, or Very Clear]. The default setting is Medium.
	Shape Alignment - Allows you to choose to which side objects are aligned to. This is mainly relevant for 3D. The default setting is Front.
	Shape Rotation Type - Is only available for specific Shapes. Defines the angle in which objects are rotated [0°, 90°, 180°, 270°, Random].
	Motion Type - Choose how objects move and behave. The default setting is Random. Random - Objects move randomly and independently of each other. Swarm - Objects react according to a swarm intelligence and thus imitate their movement behavior.

Restoring The Default Settings

Restore Default Layer Settings - Restores the default settings of the Layer.
- All Layer Settings and Effect Settings will be restored to their default values.
- This does not include the MADRIX Effect selection, the Effect Parameter Chaser [which will be paused], or the Layer Macro [which will be stopped].
