Cel Impact shader pack — free pack! 12 anime/manga-style FX shaders, free for everyone — "Install Free" in the Shader Store Also available in VKO1 Player (AUv3), no purchase needed Fixed the pack's preview video not showing in the store Node Editor Cross-graph Paste and Connect now works between different graphs — it reconnects onto the matching node type instead of requiring the exact original node. Paste is also now in the right-click menu Pinch-to-zoom now anchors under your fingers instead of snapping to center Much smoother canvas while dragging/gesturing (fewer redraws, batched grid rendering) Preview panel: fullscreen button now actually works on click (was drag-only), and the panel can be dragged anywhere and remembers its position "N" shortcut now jumps straight into palette search Mac / AI Co-Pilot New "Send Shader to MESA" pad command — sends a pad's graph to MESA Synth as a live wavetable (needs MESA open with Claude Control enabled) Fixed Session Manager getting stuck and silently skipping saved sessions when loading more Bug fixes Fixed shader ordering when auto-placing a newly installed pack

User reviews

Too bad:(

Sorry, but what's the point of this app? The recording function is unusable, as it only results in a screen recording that then outputs a black screen. So it's useless. Synchronizing to music is also impossible, since the app can't connect to either AUM or CUBasis. It would be much better if you could import an audio track that then synchronizes the images—essentially, movement to the beat with the ability to interact with the effects live.

Response from developer

Hello! I have since then fixed the screen recording bug, and added tons of improvements. I hope you like it better now. You connect to AUM or Cubasis in several ways, easiest is Ableton Link, which has been in the app since version 1.0
