About Feedback Studio
Feedback Studio, developed by Melted Electronics, generates real‑time video echo and feedback effects for After Effects versions 2020 through 2026. The GPU‑accelerated engine enables interactive creation of fractal patterns, trails, and tunnel visuals while maintaining smooth playback. Integrated Luma and Chroma keying let you isolate subjects, and the plugin offers translation on X and Y axes, zoom, rotation, and three mirror modes for kaleidoscopic results. Hue, Saturation, and Brightness sliders adjust the feedback’s colour, while a negative filter with recursion, blur, and sharpen provide additional visual shaping. Version 1.2.0 adds a Windows‑only Remove Source toggle. The plugin is listed as free in the catalog, but licensing may change, so reviewing the developer’s page is advised.
