Lights and music
Effects
All 95 effects work on any layout: lines, poles, rings, polygons, matrices and freehand shapes, drawn across the room you set up on the Room page (room-and-zones.md).
- Automatic (the default): Tempolight picks from them by music style and song part (calm parts, build-ups, drops); the last column says which styles use each one. On the Effects page, ♥ makes automatic mode pick an effect more often and ⊘ bans it; Change effect every sets how many beats an effect stays.
- By hand: tap an effect on the Effects page (or pick it on Home) and it stays until you press Back to automatic. Picked by hand effects are never chosen automatically.
- Tune any effect under Effect settings (speed, intensity, colour shift, saturation, mirror; kept per effect and
saved in scenes), add an Accent layer on top, give a zone its own effect, or
make your own under Make your own and share it with a
TL1:code.
