Four gestures from Ableton's envelope editor, which is the muscle memory an automation lane inherits. Alt-drag the line between two breakpoints to bend it, Alt-double-click to straighten. `curve` was already honoured everywhere it is read — drawn in the lane, sampled in preview, baked into the render through setValueCurveAtTime — with no gesture anywhere that could set it, so every envelope anyone could draw was linear in practice. The curve is solved, not accumulated (x^e = f, so e = ln f / ln x), which keeps the segment under the pointer instead of drifting away over a long drag; the test asserts that by sampling with the renderer's own sampler. Shift locks a drag to one axis and fines the vertical travel to a quarter. Which axis won is decided in pixels — seconds and dB are not comparable numbers, and comparing them would make the lock depend on the zoom. A dragged point snaps to the beat grid and to its neighbouring points, with Alt to ignore it. The radius is tight on purpose: a lane is often a few seconds wide, where a generous radius makes a point unplaceable between two beats. Double-click a point to type its value. -6.0 dB is not a pixel you can find, and there was no way to enter one. The gesture layer moves to useAutomationLaneGestures and the path builder to envelopePath: the component was at the studio's 600-line ceiling, and both are worth testing without a render. trackShowsBeatStrip comes out of TimelineLanes for the same reason.
@hyperframes/studio
Browser-based composition editor UI for Hyperframes. Provides a visual timeline, code editor, and live preview for building video compositions.
Install
npm install @hyperframes/studio
What it does
The studio is a React application with:
- Visual timeline — drag, resize, and arrange elements on tracks
- Code editor — edit HTML and GSAP scripts with CodeMirror (syntax highlighting, autocomplete)
- Live preview — see changes in real time as you edit
- Composition inspector — view and modify element properties
Development
The studio is embedded in the hyperframes preview command. To develop the studio UI itself:
cd packages/studio
bun run dev # Start Vite dev server
bun run build # Build for production
bun run typecheck # Type-check
Tech stack
- React 18/19, Zustand (state management)
- CodeMirror 6 (editor)
- Tailwind CSS (styling)
- Vite (bundler)
- Phosphor Icons
