Light effects - sblantipodi/firefly_luciferin GitHub Wiki

Luciferin supports various LED effects.

Bias Light

Captures the screen to read colors and adjust LED backlights accordingly.

Music Mode

There are three music-driven effects:

  • VU Meter:
    Displays audio signal levels with green for RMS and red/yellow for peaks.

  • Screen Capture + Music:
    A combination of bias light (screen capture) and music analysis to regulate LED brightness based on audio peaks.

  • Rainbow Music:
    Rainbow colors driven by the music.

Other effects are static and do not require screen or audio capture.

Luciferin is designed with simplicity in mind—less is more.

No configuration is needed to activate audio mode. Simply select an audio effect to enjoy it.


Audio Loopback Options

Native Audio Loopback

If your operating system has a working audio loopback device, Luciferin will use it as the default audio input.

Software Audio Loopback

If no loopback device is detected, Luciferin will create a software loopback on the default audio output.
