Linear Chaos is an animated line composition in BeamTracer Audio Visualizers, built on WebGL. Settings, audio modulation, presets, and tips.

Default demo track · live audio-reactive settings

Linear Chaos is an animated line composition in the Lines category. Open it from the left visualizer list, start an audio source, and use the settings panel to shape its response.

Open Linear Chaos

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

Ghost · Voltage · Deep Field · Fever · Signal · Hypnotic

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
Scale Factor	Material	Sets the visual scale factor.
Smoothing	Material	Balances immediate audio response against steadier motion.
Glow Intensity	Material	Sets the visible glow intensity.
Trail Decay	Material	Sets how long trail decay remains visible.
Line Opacity	Material	Sets how transparent the line appears.
Auto Rotate	Camera	Controls auto rotate; higher values increase the effect and lower values reduce it.
Camera Speed	Camera	Sets how quickly camera changes or moves.
Distance	Camera	Sets how far the camera sits from the subject.

Tips for a better audio visualization

Give bass the larger structural motion and highs the fine detail or glow; the frequency split keeps the composition legible.
Try assigning Bass to Scale Factor, then compare Mid, High, and Volume while the demo track plays. The slider's live fill shows the signal reaching that control.
