Changelog

September 7, 2026

• Timeline works with internet radio and live inputs. Choosing Timeline while a station, microphone, or tab audio was playing left a blank canvas with an error in the console. The waveform now rolls in live from the right edge for any source that has no end, and the decoded full-track view is unchanged for the demo track and audio files.
• Timeline color modes and presets. The old Frequency Colors blend is gone. Color Mode now offers Solid, Wave Color (amplitude-density bands, hot in the core and cool at the peaks, with Heat, Neon, Aurora, Ember and Waveform Color palettes) and EQ Color (the DJ-deck tint: bass, mids and highs each in their own color, mixing where they overlap, from a real band split of the audio). A STYLE grid of twelve complete looks sits at the top of the settings panel.
• Docs navigation sized to its contents. On wide screens the sidebar panel no longer stretches across the empty space to the left of the page, and the collapsed-sidebar toolbar sits below the header instead of behind it.
• Video to Laser previews follow the scrubber. The trace panes update while you drag the frame slider instead of waiting for release, and each frame traces in a fraction of the time it took before. The Dance Silhouette example now traces the dancer's outline rather than the background around her, and the SVG Parser preview no longer draws a rectangle around the frame. The point previews no longer draw a stray line from the center of the canvas to the first point of a frame.
• BeamTracer Bridge has a download page. /download carries the macOS disk image, its requirements, and a checksum. The "BeamTracer Bridge is not running on this Mac" notice in every laser panel now links there.
• Spotify Canvas renders are always silent. Choosing the Spotify Canvas preset on the Frame step and then rendering could still include the track's audio; the render dialog now keeps INCLUDE AUDIO off for Canvas.

• Spotify Canvas exports always render at 608 × 1080. The 4K option is disabled for the Spotify Canvas preset, because Spotify rejects a Canvas taller than 1080 pixels.
