Features
- Supports almost all 2D medias including all quicktime codecs, live video capture, flash 5 animation and all the most common 2D image formats.
- Import full per-pixel transparency (as long as the media supports it).
- Works in 32 bits ARGB color space.
- Modulate in real-time all the color channels using substractive/additive factors in order to change color or global transparency level.
- Apply five different types of luma-keys to generate real time per-pixel transparency on your media.
- Works in full resolution for both the media and the final composition. (no scale down of the resolution ).
- Real time filters for contrast and saturation that can be inversed to obtain negative effects.
- Two real-time blur filters.
- Two real-time brightness filters.
- Flexible noise filter (on color or alpha-channel).
- Three-dimensional matrix transformer.
- Map your movie on a three-dimensional patch and apply transformations like displacement mapping, reshape (sphere, cylinder), including several fill modes like wire frame or points.
- Apply sound input curves to the three-dimensional patch.
- Per-layer logical record allowing the recording and the replay of per-layer user actions.
- Global logical record that let you records hours of mix at no CPU and disk space cost.
- Render the logical record to a quicktime movie.
- Direct capture mode allowing you to render to a quicktime movie while you are mixing.
- Change the speed and the play direction of your movie.
- Set the loop mode type of your movie : normal, loop or ping-pong.
- Spatial transformation of your movie on three different axis allowing perspective, scale, rotation, translation, etc.
- Automatic motion and colorisation of the media with full control over speed, rate, space, and size.
- Automatic effects can all be combined together.
- Create tiled mirrors of your medias at nearly no performance cost.
- Link the automatic effects to the sound input.
- A global trace mode where the movie acts as painting brushes on the background.
- Live video capture that can be used just as any other media type.
- Apply time transition between media changes.
User Interface

- Full direct keyboard support. Link any key to any element of the user-interface. Linking is done automatically simply by clicking on the user-interface element and pressing the key.
- Split your layers in two groups A/B and cross-fade from one group to another.
- An advanced pre-visualization panel that can be used to move your media, prepare the mix before sending it to the final output, see a layer group while you are projecting another and more.
- The final composition can be redirected to a full-screen view on the main screen or on a secondary screen or to a resizeable moveable window.
- A media panel allows you to drag and drop your media files.
- See informations about your media including a visual preview.
- The master panel can be used to apply global settings to the whole composition.
- Load and save the current settings.
