Lesson 3 of 3

Sandbox

Goal: Use the complete instrument and save a restorable visual state.

Open the Expression control panel and try the Exposure control. This increases the intensity of peaks.
Turn on the mic and adjust the Noise gate. This removes signal below a certain amplitude level, such as background noise.
Try smoothness and persistence. These slow the rate of response to the incoming signal. This can be useful for creating a more stable image.
Try laying out the oscillators at different angles, such as evenly spaced, or at a fixed angle step.
Try the different blend modes and adjust other parameters to find sweet spots.
If you find a combination you like, find the Copy Sketch Link option in the top right and save it. You can restore this state later by pasting the URL into your browser.
