Transform
| Name |
Description |
|---|
| Position X |
Move its position along the x-axis in local space. |
| Position Y |
Move its position along the y-axis in local space. |
| Position Z |
Move its position along the z-axis in local space. |
| Rotation Heading |
Rotate the object about the y-axis. |
| Rotation Pitch |
Rotate the object about the x-axis. |
| Rotation Bank |
Rotate the object about the z-axis. |
| Scale X |
Scale along the x-axis. |
| Scale Y |
Scale along the y-axis. |
| Scale Z |
Scale along the z-axis. |
Inherit Transform Channels
Toggle which transform channels should be inherited. By default, all are on.
Attributes
| Name |
Description |
|---|
| Active |
Enables or disables the effect. Disabling the effect means it will no longer compute, so disabling a node when not in use can improve performance. |
| Preview In Viewport |
Preview the effect blended with alpha in the viewport. |
| Preview Alpha In Viewport |
Preview the alpha values in the viewport. |
| Width |
The resolution of the effect along its width. |
| Height |
The resolution of the effect along its height. |
| Update Time Mode |
Change how the effect is generated with respect to the scene’s timecode.
- Locked To Timecode, The effect is locked to the time code.
- Running / Loopable, The effect is generated seperated to the timecode.
|
| Static Image (Process Only Once) |
Only process the image once, making a more efficient scene. Animated Post-FX nodes will not function with this enabled. |
| Device |
Select an input device to use. |
| Channel |
Select a channel from the device to listen to. |
| Attack |
Controls the initial time between the current values to the peak. |
| Decay |
Controls the time between the peak to the sustain level. |
| Min Value |
Acts as a minimum threshold for extracting a range of values from the waveform. |
| Max Value |
Acts as a maximum threshold for extracting a range of values from the waveform. |
| Max Clamp |
A maximum value which values will be clamped if they go above. |
| Spikiness |
Accentuates peaks in the waveform so they are sharper. |
| Scale |
How much the output values are scaled. |
| Offset |
Offset all values output by the texture. |
| Smoothness |
How much smoothing is applied between differing values. |
| Falloff Range |
Range in which the sounds data will be tracked. |
Rendering
| Name |
Description |
|---|
| Colour |

| Blend Amount |
The amount the generator is blended with the output. |
| Blend Mode |
Choose how the image blends with the scene. See Blend Modes for details. |

Outputs
Can be connected to any node which requires an image input.
