Lumen Burst

Lumen Burst

A thin glowing spectrum ring (or a line across the frame) over a dark glow; on loud passages squares burst out and light rays shine from the centre while faint shapes drift behind, all tinted in one colour. An After Effects visualizer, matched to the original.

About this template

Shape and layout

Six stacked spectrum layers drawn round a circle in the middle of the frame, or along a line across it: bars, tip dots and polylines, some standing out, some in. The particles keep clear of a soft zone around the spectrum.

Motion

Each layer follows its own band of the music. When the track is loud, a burst of small glowing squares flies out of the centre and light rays shine through them for half a second; big faint shapes drift and tumble all the time. The ring can spin.

Look and colour

Everything is white light tinted by one colour: dark parts stay dark, mid tones take the colour, the brightest parts stay near white. Without a photo the frame is a dark grey glow from the top-left corner; a photo or video replaces it.

What you can customize

Every setting below is yours to change in the editor, with the live preview updating as the track plays.

Layout
Ring draws the spectrum round a circle in the middle; Line draws it across the frame.
RingLine
Style
The original's six spectrum presets: each stacks six layers of bars, dots and lines in its own way.

Tint color
The colour the whole frame is tinted with.
Glow
How strongly the spectrum glows.
Light burst
On loud passages squares fly out and light rays shine from the centre; 0 turns them off.
Peak height
How far the spectrum's bars and lines reach from the ring or the line.
Audio reactivity
How strongly the spectrum and the light bursts follow the music.
Attack
How quickly the visualizer responds when the sound gets louder.

Background video
Background dimming
Darkens the background photo or video so the visualizer and text stay readable.
Background blur
Softens the background photo or video so it reads as a backdrop, not the subject.
Tint the photo
On: the photo takes the colour with everything else. Off: it keeps its own colours and only the spectrum and particles are tinted.

Backdrop effects

Effects for your photo or video backdrop, shared by every template.

Zoom pump
How much the background photo or video zooms in on the bass. Zero keeps it at a fixed size.
Travel
How far the background photo or video wanders around the frame as the track plays. Zero holds it still.
Camera shake
A short camera shake on every kick — a vibration with a slight roll — plus a low rumble with the level. Zero holds the camera still.
Camera sway
A slow, smooth roll of the whole scene — visualizer, background and particles — each layer moving its own amount. Zoomed in a little so the corners never show. Zero holds it still.
Layer parallax
How differently the layers move while the camera sways: the background least, the particles most. Zero moves the whole scene as one.
Shockwave
Ripple rings spread out from the centre on the kicks and warp the picture as they pass. Zero never fires.
Lens
A lens bulge that pumps on the kicks, with a colour fringe in the outer frame that grows with the level.
Zoom blur
Radial streaks shoot out from the centre on the kicks, as if the camera rushed in. Zero never streaks.
Glow pulse
A soft bloom around the bright parts of the picture that swells on the kicks.
Light leaks
Warm patches of light drift slowly over the picture, brighter the louder the music — a film look.
Light rays
Shafts of light from the top-left corner, blocked by the darker parts of the picture, brighter with the music and flaring on the kicks. Zero keeps them off.
Light sweep
A soft, slanted band of light crosses the picture once a bar — or, without the track’s analysis, on a strong kick every few seconds at most. Zero never sweeps.
Lens flare
Long horizontal streaks of bluish light stretch out of the brightest parts of the picture on the kicks, and rest faintly in between. Zero keeps them off.
Fog
Slow drifting mist over the picture, thicker toward the bottom and breathing gently with the music. Zero keeps the air clear.
Particle overlay
A layer of drifting particles over the picture that brightens with the music.
OffDustBokehSnowSparksRainFirefliesConfettiBubblesStarsDriftGlow orbs
Particle amount
How many particles fill the frame.
Rain on glass
Raindrops on a pane in front of the picture: small beads, and bigger drops that slide down and bend the picture. Zero keeps the glass dry.
Echo
The previous frame lingers, slightly enlarged, so motion leaves trails and the kicks pull you into a tunnel.
Neon edges
The picture's own outlines traced in cycling neon colours, brightest on the kicks.
Glitch
Digital bursts on the kicks: sliced rows jump sideways, blocks freeze and the colour channels split. Zero never fires.
Pixelate
The picture breaks into square blocks on the kicks and sharpens again within a quarter of a second. Zero keeps it sharp.
Beat pulse
The picture breathes in time with the music, swelling and glowing just before each beat so it lands on it. Needs the track’s analysis.
Perspective tilt
Tilts the picture like a card in 3D, swaying slowly with the music and nodding on the kicks, with a light that follows the turn. Zero keeps it face-on.
Liquid
The picture ripples like a liquid surface, more strongly the louder the music. Zero keeps it flat.
Flash
A short flash toward white on the strongest kicks, at most two per second. Zero never flashes.
Retro VHS
Tape look: a gentle wobble, colour bleed, scan lines, noise and a tracking band that rolls through on the beat.
Old film
Projector look: flicker, hair scratches, dust, a gentle weave and a sepia lean.
Backdrop grain
Adds fine film-like noise over the frame for a textured, less digital look.
Grunge overlay
A worn texture laid over the picture and redrawn several times a second, like a damaged film print.
OffCracksWire meshTape streaksToner smearPeeling paint
Grunge amount
How strongly the texture shows over the picture.
Grunge color
The colour of the grunge texture. Light colours brighten the picture where the texture lies and ink black darkens it; or pick your own.

Custom grunge color
Your own colour for the grunge texture.
Dirty lens
Blurs the picture in grime-shaped patches that shift several times a second, as if shot through dirty glass, and stains its edges dark.
Color grade
A colour treatment over the whole picture — and the colours of the built-in backdrop when you set no photo or video.

Duotone
Maps the picture’s light and shade onto two colours, dark to light. Custom uses the two colours you pick below.

Drop
The last beat before a drop goes dark, then the drop hits with a flash, a zoom punch, a colour split and a glitch, and the picture stays livelier for a few bars. Needs the track’s analysis.
Follow the song
Calmer reactions in the quiet parts of the song and bigger ones in the loud parts, easing at each change. Needs the track’s analysis.
Hue drift
The colours slowly cycle around the hue wheel and take a step on every kick. Zero keeps them as they are.
Depth parallax
Sways the near parts of the photo more than the far ones, and swells them on the kicks, so a flat picture gains depth. Needs the photo's depth map: off until it is ready, and on a video.
Focus rack
Blurs by depth like a lens: at rest the near part is sharp and the far part soft, and the focus pulls to the background and back on the kicks. Needs the photo's depth map; off until it is ready.
Depth fog
A pale haze over the far parts of the picture that breathes with the music, so the near parts stand out. Needs the photo's depth map; off until it is ready.
Keep subject crisp
Keeps the photo's subject untouched while blur, glow, echo, tape, grade and grain go to the background only. Needs the photo's subject map; off until it is ready.
Subject rim light
A neon rim of light hugging the photo's subject, with a soft halo behind it, flaring on the kicks. Needs the photo's subject map; off until it is ready, and on a video.
Subject ghost trails
Pale copies of the subject linger and drift outward with the music while the background stays put. Needs the photo's subject map; off until it is ready, and on a video.
Subject pop
The photo's subject swells toward the viewer on the kicks while the background holds still. Needs the photo's subject map; off until it is ready, and on a video.
Subject spotlight
Darkens the picture around the subject, like a spotlight that follows it and breathes with the music. Needs the photo's subject map; off until it is ready, and on a video.
Beat sync
Lands the stepping effects — the kaleidoscope, the hue drift and the shockwave rings — on the beat or the bar instead of on every bass hit. Needs the track’s analysis.
OffEvery beatEvery bar
Focus pulse
The picture softens and dims as the music settles and snaps sharp and bright on the hits. Zero keeps it steady.
Vignette pulse
Mirror
Folds the picture into mirrored copies. The kaleidoscope turns slowly and steps on the kicks.
OffLeft-rightFour-wayKaleidoscope
Particles behind subject
Spreads the particles through the scene's depth, so some pass behind the photo's subject. Needs the photo's depth map; off until it is ready, and on a video.
