Parameters

ParameterTypeDefaultWhat it does
echoesInt4How many past frames trail behind the current one.
spacingInt1Frames between echoes.
decayFloat0.6How much each older echo fades (0–1).
operationChoicemaxmax keeps the brightest of the trail (light streaks); average is a soft persistence; plus adds them (energy tails, can exceed 1). maxaverageplus
disabledBoolfalseBypass: the node passes its first input through untouched (D in the graph). The knobs keep their values for when it comes back.
labelTextA note shown under the node in the graph — what this node is FOR. Never affects the render or the cache.
hide_inputBoolfalseDraw the node without its input wire — a tidy graph for a node whose source is obvious (a Dot, a viewer tap).
