S2L EQ / Spectrum

S2L EQ / Spectrum displays a real-time equalization and visualization of the audio signal [i.e., audio spectrum].

▪Various buttons and controls have universal functions. They are available for each MADRIX 5 Effect / Layer.

▪Colors - Opens the Color Gradient to specify the colors. The default color is Red, Orange, Green.

▪Drop - Defines how quickly spectrum bars are not displayed any more and drop out of the matrix [in %]. The default value is 50. Valid values range from 1 to 100.

▪Fade - Defines how fast MADRIX 5 displays the effect. This value represents Beats Per Minute [BPM]. The default value is 3000. Valid values range from 1 to 3000.

▪Width 1 - Defines the first size of spectrum bars depending on the direction [in % of the Matrix Size]. The default value is 0.1. Valid values range from 0.01 to 100.

▪Pitch 1 - Defines the first distance between spectrum bars depending on the direction [in % of the Matrix Size]. The default value is 0.1. Valid values range from 0.01 to 100.

▪Width 2 - Defines the second size of spectrum bars depending on the direction [in % of the Matrix Size]. The default value is 100. Valid values range from 0.01 to 100.

▪Pitch 2 - Defines the first distance between spectrum bars depending on the direction [in % of the Matrix Size]. The default value is 100. Valid values range from 0.01 to 100.

▪Display Range - Defines the extend of the effect across the matrix, creating empty space when adjusting the minimum and maximum accordingly. For radial directions, it defines the inner and outer radius. For non-radial directions, it defines the start and end of the bars. The size ratios are kept and the effect is not simply cut off but displayed contracted. The default values are 0 and 100. Valid values range from 0 to 100.
Note: Color Mode Matrix is applied to the Display Range and not the entire matrix. In this way, the color gradient always fully stretches across the displayed effect and is not cut off.

▪Freq. Range - Defines the Frequency Range. Allows you to limit the displayed range of frequencies. For example if the audio input does not cover lower or higher frequency ranges, you can make sure that the effect still covers the full matrix by cutting those lower and upper frequencies off, i.e. the defined range is rendered across the entire matrix. The default values are 0 and 100. Valid values range from 0 to 100.

	Invert - Inverts the position of objects.
	Mirror - Mirrors objects by creating duplicates on the opposite position.
	Border - Is only available for specific Shapes. Defines the size of an object's border [in % of the shape size]. The default setting is 1.00. Valid values range from 0.01 to 100.00.
	Outer Glow - Is only available for specific Shapes. Defines the outer shimmer of objects [in %]. The default setting is 0.00. Valid values range from 0.01 to 100.00.
	Inner Glow - Is only available for specific Shapes. Defines the inner gleam of objects [in %]. The default setting is 0.00. Valid values range from 0.01 to 100.00.
	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 setting 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 setting is 0. Valid values range from 0 to 100.
	Logarithmic - Displays the spectrum in a logarithmic way.
	Dynamic Range Control - Visually amplifies and balances frequencies to get a more interesting spectrum.
	Direction/Mode - Allows you to choose the direction, including Cross Mode. This includes all directions for 2D and 3D mode. This heavily influences the visual outcome of the effect. The default setting is Top. Learn more »Using Directions
	Look-At Type - Allows you to choose from which side you want to look at the effect. This is mainly relevant for 3D. The default setting is Front. Learn more »Using Directions
	Shape - Allows you to choose a specific shape for objects. A certain Size is required before a shape becomes visible. The default setting is Filled.
	Shape Alignment - Allows you to choose to which side objects are aligned to. This is mainly relevant for 3D. The default setting is Front.

Note: S2L EQ / Spectrum will interpolate frequency bands if the number of bands exceeds the set frequency range for an improved visual result [instead of duplicating available bands].
