What's new (v1.2.4)

Smart Strobe & New Effects

A much more musical SonicHue Sync — the lights now follow the song's
structure instead of just reacting to noise. This release teaches the
engine to understand build-ups, drops, and quiet sections like a DJ does.

Smart Strobe — Now It Listens
• Strobe behavior is independent of volume — phone speaker, club PA,
soft or loud, same consistency.
• Auto-fires during build-ups, ends the instant the kick lands.
• 10 distinct strobe patterns: Chase, Reverse, Ping-Pong, Flash, Pairs,
Sparkle, Center Out, Edges In, Staccato, Heartbeat. Each burst picks
a different one with anti-repeat memory.
• New Strobe Threshold slider — slide left for ambient (no bursts),
right for club-mode aggressive triggering.
• New Strobe Frequency slider — flash speed from gentle 150 ms to
club-tight 40 ms.

More Musical Section Transitions
• Calm → Build → Peak → Drop → Breakdown shifts now snap to the beat
grid — effect changes land cleanly on downbeats.
• Each section has its own brightness arc: builds ramp up, peaks
shimmer, breakdowns fade gently — not just on/off.
• Returning to the same section type now cycles through allowed
effects instead of repeating a random pick.

New Effects
• Groove group — 6 medium-energy rhythmic presets: Heartbeat, Bouncing
Ball, Pendulum, Two-Step, Skip, Trail. All keep an ambient floor so
the room never goes dark.
• Fireworks rework — every beat now reliably produces a visible pop.
• Special Random can now rotate your saved custom synth patches.

Smoother Color Rendering
• Palette transitions cross-fade instead of hard-cutting.
• Choose 1 / 2 / 4 beat transition window in Color Presets.

UX Polish
• Latency slider marks the 110 ms default, snaps with haptic feedback,
double-tap the clock icon to reset.
• New sequence steps default to 4 beats (was 1) so they feel musical
out of the box.
