Nice Presets
I like your three presets. The first reminds me of destorted TV; the second like a fractal; and the third like a psycodelic un, not sure, but it was cool :cool:. Try making the presets be lighter and have more definite colors. Also every one of your presets used the colorfade creating a kind of noise which detracts from the preset. Try to advoid using the onbeat random inside a feedback loop. The file below is a cool color fad effect that is much softer on the eyes:

thanx
your color wheel looked nice but it's not the look i was aiming for previously.
I like the "staticky" looking colors the on beat random gives the colorfade.
Here's my mix of your color wheel, the color is more definate than my previous avs, but still has that grainy look that i like. What do you think?

Nice. It looks kind of like a galaxy / nebula. Don't let my comment cramp your style; I love abstact grainy preset like yours above. Develop your style and I'm sure your presets will be awesome. I still think it's a little to dark on the outsides. I don't like this because I'd like to see what is going on, but I can't.

The reason I don't like the on beat randomization on the color fade is because 1 out of 10 times, it makes a bad color mixture not so much that it makes static. (Unless you like all the colors produced from a random color fade) A possibility mapping your on beat color fades to a color map. I also liked your use of the convolution on your first preset. I normally can't get it to look good in my presets, but you made it really work.

Good luck with your preset :)
