Lattice

Mirrors, tilings, wireframes and trusses: hard-edged geometry that switches on the beat.

Lattice engine preview

6 modes

Launch modes

Kaleidoscope mode

Kaleidoscope

A mirrored wedge repeats around the frame, its profile cut from the spectrum.

Tessellation mode

Tessellation

A still hex tiling that beats light in travelling stripes.

Wire Polyhedron mode

Wire Polyhedron

A rotating wireframe solid whose vertices ride their own bands.

Isometric Grid mode

Isometric Grid

An isometric block field where every column is a frequency.

Truss Web mode

Truss Web

Node rings wired to their neighbours; struts carry current on the beat.

Prism Stack mode

Prism Stack

One polygon is born per beat and travels outward carrying that hit.

SensitivityBounded overall audio responseAudiorange1YesNo
Spectrum rangeHow much of the 40 Hz to 14 kHz range the visual spans, from the bass up. Lower it to give the bass and mids more of the barsAudiorange1YesNo
Frequency scaleHow the bars are spread across the frequencies. Log spreads them by octave, mel by how pitch is heard, and linear by hertz, which gives most bars to the highsAudioselectlogNoNo
Auto-levelLifts every part of the spectrum to its own recent range, so quiet highs move as much as loud bass. A note held for several seconds settles lower as it adapts. 0 shows the raw spectrumAudiorange0.8YesNo
