Variation Controls in Detail

Many AnyFX effects have "Dynamic" versions where you can add a random value to parameters to create dynamic effects. These parameters are usually grouped into 3–5 controls:

• The first slider controls the parameter value itself.
• Random menu (optional) – select the random mode. If missing, the default is Multiply.

Add mode – adds a random value (0 to Variation) to the parameter. Can exceed the range. Useful for effects like Blending Opacity.

Multiply mode – multiplies a random value (0 to Variation) by the parameter value. Result ranges from 0 to the parameter.

• Variation (optional) – controls the amount of change over time.
• Speed – how fast the random value changes.

Normal Speed	Low Speed

• Density – frequency of random events.
