LYRIC BLITZ — CHANGELOG


1.0.0
-----
First release.

- Smooth lyric animation straight from pasted lyrics. Words ease in when
  they're sung - every word gets a marker on its line, and dragging a marker
  re-syncs that word.
- 59 looks in nine families - Fade & Blur, Slide & Smear, Scale & Pop,
  Letters, Scatter, 3D Turns, Depth, Reveal and Kinetic - with search and
  family filters in the panel. Expo and spring eases, smears that stretch with
  speed, and a slow drift while each line holds so it never sits dead. Text
  keeps its colours - nothing flashes, tints or glows.
- Distances and blur follow the font size, so a look reads the same on a
  small caption or a huge hook.
- Works flat or 3D camera-tracked. All motion lives inside the text layer's
  animators, so the layer itself is free to parent to a track null. 3D letters
  give flips and depth real perspective.
- Attach to track: select lyric layers and a 3D Camera Tracker null, press
  Attach. The words land on the track point, sized to read the way they did
  flat. The null and camera are never changed.
- Paste plain text, LRC or SRT. LRC word stamps time every word; anything
  untimed is spread by syllable.
- Timing five ways: the file's timestamps, a tap per line, a tap per word,
  a BPM grid, or spread across the work area.
- {style} at the start of a line gives just that line its own look. Mix it up
  deals a different look to every line.
- One controls null steers every line after the build: In, Out, Stagger,
  Motion, Blur, Overshoot, Drift, Float, Beat Pulse.
- Motion blur is switched on in the comp for you when you ask for it.
- Restyle selected text layers, including your own - your animators,
  expressions and dragged markers are left alone.
- Remove mine deletes only what the panel made. One undo takes a whole build
  back out - Cmd+Z on a Mac, Ctrl+Z on Windows, and the panel says which.
- Trial builds the first 6 lines of a paste; a key builds whole songs. One
  key covers two computers.
