Default demo track · live audio-reactive settings

Text Particles is a text-driven performance visual in the Text category. Open it from the left visualizer list, start an audio source, and use the settings panel to shape its response.

Open Text Particles

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

Cascade · Bass Drop · Minimal · Collapse

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
Spawn Rate	Core	Sets how quickly spawn changes or moves.
Bloom	Material	Sets the visible strength of bloom.
Hue Shift	Colors	Moves the color around the color spectrum.
Beat → Size Pulse	Audio	Sets the visible beat → size pulse.
Random Drift	Animation	Sets how irregular or unpredictable the random drift appears.
Distance	Camera	Sets how far the camera sits from the subject.

Animation

Setting	Available values	What it changes
Random Drift	0–500	Sets how irregular or unpredictable the random drift appears. Use Assign modulation to choose a source.
Collapse Mode	On / Off	Pulls every particle toward the center. If there is no field yet, the full text forms first, collapses, and re-forms once it has drained.

Loop Reveal	On / Off	Turns loop reveal on or off.
Fade Delay	0s–15s	Sets how long fade delay remains visible.
Fade Speed	1–30	Sets how quickly fade changes or moves.
Loop Delay	0s–10s	Controls loop delay; higher values increase the effect and lower values reduce it.

Camera

Setting	Available values	What it changes
Distance	200–1500	Sets how far the camera sits from the subject. Use Assign modulation to choose a source.

Some controls appear only after you enable a related mode or style. The settings panel always reflects the options available for the current selection.

Tips for a better audio visualization

Keep the words readable first, then apply bass to scale or movement and highs to edge effects.
Try assigning Bass to Spawn Rate, then compare Mid, High, and Volume while the demo track plays. The slider's live fill shows the signal reaching that control.
