Default demo track · live audio-reactive settings

Flip Clock is a clock and time-based visual in the Date and Time category. Open it from the left visualizer list, start an audio source, and use the settings panel to shape its response.

Open Flip Clock

Launch the visualizer with its matching left-nav entry selected.

Quick start

Start the demo track, choose a local audio file, or enable a live input.
Try a preset or style first, then open the section for the part of the image you want to change.
On a control with Assign modulation, open the source picker, choose a signal, and watch the slider's live fill.
Use Reset to Defaults whenever you want to return to the original look.

Presets and styles

Boring · Midnight Noir · Neon Arcade · Golden Hour · Ice Station · Cyberpunk

On a control with Assign modulation, select the activity icon to open Modulate with. Choose a named source, or choose — None to leave the control unmodulated. After you assign one, its name appears below the slider; select that name to edit the route, or use Clear modulation to remove it. The slider track shows the live signal reaching the control.

Modulated control	Section	What the route changes
Spotlight	Material	Controls spotlight; higher values increase the effect and lower values reduce it.
Rim Light	Material	Controls rim light; higher values increase the effect and lower values reduce it.
Bloom Strength	Material	Sets the visible bloom strength.
Colon Brightness	Colors	Sets the visible strength of colon brightness.
VU Intensity	Audio	Sets the visible vu intensity.

Tips for a better audio visualization

Keep the clock face readable; route audio to the surrounding material, particles, or glow rather than every time element.
Try assigning Bass to Spotlight, then compare Mid, High, and Volume while the demo track plays. The slider's live fill shows the signal reaching that control.
