Myths & Legends
Mythological Creatures
Creatures of myth in their own realms, drawn with code and alive to your song: a dragon breathing fire on a volcano, Medusa with a snake of her hair for every band of the music, the phoenix bursting into flame over a sun temple, the kraken rising from a storm, Fenrir breaking his chains and more, grouped by the myths they come from. Every layer of the realm moves, each power answers its own part of the song and on every phrase the creature unleashes it. Its realm, in flight, by moonlight, in a storm, close up, guarding its ruins and seen in a hero's bronze shield.

| 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 bars | 1 | Set by you |
| 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 highs | log | Set by you |
| 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 spectrum | 0.8 | Set by you |
| Primary audio source | bass | Set by you |
| Frequency focusWhich part of the spectrum drives this visual; while no explicit audio source is set, the motion envelope follows this selection | full | Set by you |
| Burst intensityGlow and trail swell on sharp hits; 0 keeps bursts off | 0 | Set by you |
| Audio contributionMaximum contribution from the primary audio route | 0.55 | Set by you |
| Audio dynamicsHow much of the band's movement reaches the visual. 1 = full dynamics; 0 holds it at a steady level for a calmer, more constant look | 1 | Set by you |
| Audio attackEnvelope attack in milliseconds | 45 | Set by you |
| Audio releaseEnvelope release in milliseconds | 240 | Set by you |
| Beat responseHow hard every engine hits on each detected beat | 1.2 | Follows the music |

Shape and symmetry
| Control | Default | Music |
|---|---|---|
| Symmetry and tilingReshape the whole picture: mirror it, fold it into a kaleidoscope, or tile it (the plane groups p1, p2, p4m and p6m) | none | Set by you |
| Kaleidoscope foldsHow many mirrored copies go round the kaleidoscope | 6 | Set by you |
| Symmetry angleTurns the mirror line, or the kaleidoscope, in degrees | 0 | Follows the music |
| Kaleidoscope spinHow fast the kaleidoscope turns, in turns per bar of the song (0.25 is once a phrase) | 0 | Follows the music |
| Tile sizeEach tile's size as a share of the frame | 0.5 | Set by you |
| Tile gapThe gap between tiles, as a share of a tile; it shows the background colour | 0 | Set by you |
| WarpBend the whole picture: a twist, a bulge, waves or ripples that move once a bar, a polar unroll, or a fisheye lens | none | Set by you |
| Warp amountHow strong the warp is | 0.5 | Follows the music |
| Warp centreWhere the warp is centred in the frame | centre | Set by you |
Creature
| Control | Default | Music |
|---|---|---|
| CreatureWhich creature of myth the scene is about, grouped by the myths they come from: its body, wings and heads, how it moves, its power and the realm around it | dragon | Set by you |
| Mythic powerHow big the creature's power is: the dragon's fire, the wyvern's frost, the storm bird's lightning, Medusa's gaze. Between the phrases each power answers its own part of the song (fire the kick, lightning the snare); the song's big moments lift it | 1 | Follows the music |
| Creature sizeHow big the creature is in the frame | 1 | Set by you |
| Creature motionHow much the creature moves: its breathing, wingbeats, heads and tails, and its call on each phrase of the song | 1 | Follows the music |
Scene
| Control | Default | Music |
|---|---|---|
| Time of dayWhen the scene is set: the creature's own (dusk for a dragon, day for a griffin), Surprise me (the Variation chooses) or a time you pick | auto | Set by you |
| WindHow hard the wind blows through the realm, the creature's mane and the flames. The song's energy lifts it and every beat sends a gust across | 1 | Follows the music |
| WeatherHow much snow, rain, embers, mist or spray there is in the air. The song's energy lifts it | 1 | Follows the music |
| Scenery densityHow many trees, rocks and plants fill the realm | 1 | Set by you |
| Loop lengthSeconds before the scene repeats exactly: every cloud, wingbeat, wave and flame comes round, so a clip loops without a seam | 8 | Set by you |
| VariationAnother take on the same scene: the clouds and ridges, where the trees and stones stand, the creature's build and colouring. The same number always gives the same scene | 0 | Set by you |
