Lines
Nexus Lattice
A moving three-dimensional web with nine colored looks, length-shaped gradients, reflected ground, camera framing, and audio-driven motion.
Nexus Lattice is an animated line composition in the Lines category. Thousands of connected strands move as one shifting body while two line colors travel across the web, colored nodes mark its outer detail, and an optional reflected ground doubles the pattern below. Nine presets range from cool, spacious drift to fast warm turbulence, with dedicated looks that emphasize short connections, long connections, or gradients stretched across each strand.

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.

Audio modulation
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.

|---|---|---|
| Constraint Ratio | Core | Controls constraint ratio; higher values increase the effect and lower values reduce it. |
| Node Opacity | Material | Sets how transparent the node appears. |
| Reflection Distortion | Material | Controls how strongly the surrounding scene is reflected. |

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 Constraint Ratio, then compare Mid, High, and Volume while the demo track plays. The slider's live fill shows the signal reaching that control.
