  • Go to interactive mode (see next sections) and experiment
  • Press key 'm' for saving current effect to disk (will persist amongst Audacious sessions)

Modes

The plugin has two modes. Default is Non-Interactive.

Non-Interactive Mode:

Built-in effects are used.

Keys:

  • F11: toggle full-screen
  • Up/Down: up/down sound volume

  • z: previous song
  • x: play
  • c: pause
  • v: stop
  • b: next song

Interactive Mode:

You can change effects using keys:
