It's quite easy to create a wide varaiety of effects by playing around with the various parameters. So have fun and experiment!

The most dramatic art is generated from videos and audio with large variance in overall video frame average color and audio levels.

All these images were created from the same two videos referenced on the 'about' and 'features' pages, namely the screen recordings made with QuickTime player:

• A screen recording using QuickTime player of a music video on a popular video wesbite.

• A screen recording using QuickTime player of an area of the screen that overlaps an image displayed in Preview that is scrolled.

The audio for the latter is a personal recoding loaded into Spectra from the 'Extras' menu in the app.

Although the app provides the option to output PNG image files up to 300 dpi, it also can generate PDF files which are resolution indepenedent for printing up to the best resolution of any printer.
