Bit Dither
Retro & Print
Ordered-dither quantization — chunky pixels, Bayer patterning, low color counts, down to 1-bit duotone
Controls#
Every control the Shaders tab draws for this effect, with the ranges and defaults it actually uses — read from the shader's own schema, so this table cannot fall out of date. Controls marked conditional only appear once a related setting enables them.
| Control | Group | Type | Default | Range / choices |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pixel size | DITHER | range | 2 | 1 … 16 |
| color levels | DITHER | range | 5 | 2 … 16 |
| dither strength | DITHER | range | 0.9 | 0 … 1.5 |
| contrast gain | DITHER | range | 1 | 0.3 … 3 |
| tone lift | DITHER | range | 0 | 0 … 0.6 |
| duotone mix | DUOTONE | range | 0 | 0 … 1 |
| dark ink | DUOTONE | color | #101014 | — |
