Effects node
Ripple
Three separate optical-warp nodes: Twirl spins a vortex around a center point, Pinch/Punch magnifies or implodes like a lens, and Ripple sends concentric water rings out from a point. Chain any of them together for compound warps.
What it does
Ripple is an image effect: it changes the picture that flows through it. It takes picture in and gives picture out.
Try it
Map your Macro XY trackpad to Twirl's angle and "paint" the swirl live during a performance.
