What it does
Distinct from Feedback — Ghost keeps its own swap-pair of history RTs so the trail isn't disturbed by downstream effects. Bright-pixel maximum-of-history accumulator.

Ghost
Long-decay motion trails with a persistent history buffer.
Parameters
The controls you'll see in the inspector. Like every effect parameter in Visualz, each one is audio-bindable — route a frequency band, beat onset, sweep, or MIDI CC at it and it moves with the show.
decaygain
Runs everywhere effects run
Drop Ghost on any of the four buses — clip, layer, track, or set — with pre-or-post placement and a per-effect dry/wet mix. Stack it with the rest of the chain freely; the engine batches everything into a single per-frame draw graph, and a chain you like can be saved as an FX preset and re-applied with one click.
