The following are screen shots of the standard Blursk presets.

You can download the complete set of presets from here and copy it to ~/.xmms/blursk-presets.

Alternatively, you can use your browser to select the fixed-pitch text string below the preset titles, below, and then paste them into blursk by middle-clicking on the Blursk window.

aurora
16502018C.sMNNNB/FoMFNN/RINNNN
A radial spectrum, surrounded by flowing colored halos.

blur scope
16449715DMNNNB/SMFNY/OLYNNN
The one that started it all...

box spectrum
65024FSWNND/BMRNN/SEYNNN
Points around the edge light up in response to various frequencies of sound. The points then blur and recede toward the center.

bump scope
16183306DMNNNB/SMFNY/OLYNBN
Blursk's version of the bump scope visualization plugin.

burning logo
16737063FMNNNB/CSRBY/SAYBNN
A flame-like spectrum, with a superimposed "Blursk" logo.

butterfly
65024C.sSWNNS/BMSNN/SEYNNN
Similar to "box spectrum", but with different colors and using the "smear" blur style.

cat scan
11597312RFNNNB/FFSNY/RAYNRN
The shape of the blob changes with the sound.

cubism
65535C.strMNNNB/TMMNN/MMYIAN
Some parts of the screen move, while other parts are frozen. The areas swap on each beat.

drain
14980608RSNNNC/DMRNN/SEYNAN
Colors spiral in from the edges.

fan
16711680MSNNYB/FMNNY/MRYNNN
A radar sweep, which leave four separate trails moving in different directions.

flag
65535C.bSNNNB/RaMRNY/MRNNNN
A radar sweep with random blur motion.

flame scan
15944448FSWNNB/F.aMFNN/SEYNRN
A blend of "box spectrum" and "scan".

flashbulb
11597312DMNYYB/PMMNY/MNYRNN
There is no signal, but beats cause a logo to be drawn. As the logo fades, different parts of it flash to white briefly.

foil
65278LMNNNB/FoMRNN/FLYNNN
The layers seem to shimmer. This works better on quiet music.

fractal drums
16771584BMNNNB/F.sMFNY/PFYNBN
I made this one because I wanted a wallpaper mode that wasn't too distracting. Sound causes ripples starting in the center, which move toward the edge of the inner circle. At the same time, the smaller circles mimic the ripples.

frenetic
65278GFNNNF/F.fMSNN/PLNNNN
Shafts of fading color shoot out from the center, and then vanish.

gas cloud
16220160C.MNNNS/F.bFSNN/RSYNRN
Colors get pushed around the screen, and fade.

heat wave
65021C.SNNNW/RMRNN/SLYNNN
Layers of color rise above a spectrum. The borders between colors move in an interesting way.

interference
65278C.strMNYNB/FoMFNN/FMNNNN
For some music, this looks really cool; for other music, it is just a hopeless mish-mash.

lens
16336128MMNNYB/RipMFNY/MMYNNN
I chose the name because it looks like a blur scope as viewed through a Fresnel lens.

metalic
65278MeMNNNB/R.MSNY/OLYNBN
This looks like moving blobs of molten metal.

nucleus
720120C.strMNYNB/F.fMFNY/PFNNNN
You've got to see this one move!

quick change
16417277SMNNNB/RaFSNN/MRYNNN
A simple radar sweep, with blur motions changing as fast as possible -- about twice per sweep.

radioactive bob
16187392MMNNYC/TMFBoY/PNYBoNN
A very simple configuration which merely flashes the "bob" image and allows it to become distorted.

random flower
65278RanMNNNR/R.MFNN/FLYNNN
Continually changing motions and colors, with a "flower" signal.

random mirrored spectrum
16554506RanMNNNR/R.MFNN/MMYRNN
Like "random flower", but with mirrored spectrum instead.

ripple
65535C.sMNNN/RaMFNY/HSYNNN
Bands of color move randomly around a "starburst" signal.

roller
4522234StrMNYNB/CFSNY/SAYNAN
This looks sort of like a close-up view of a paint roller in action.

rose
65278RMNNNW/TSSNN/FLYNAN
My favorite.

scan
11531520RMNNNB/F.aMFNN/SNYIAS
No signal, but the screen is inverted on each beat and that provides some color. The image flows around randomly.

sparkler
16533504MeMNNYB/FMSNY/MRYNNN
A radar sweep. Loud sounds produce white spots which bloom behind the sweep.

subliminal logo
11597312RanSNNN/RaMRRY/FLNRRN
Random images are incorporated into a typical configuration.

testing 1 2 3
15533542FSNNNR/R.MFMN/MINNNF
I created this one mostly as a way to test the new features of Blursk.

tunnel
11795200C.SNNNB/FoMRNN/FLYNNN
The image slowly moves outward from the center, and dissolves into blobs along the way. This works best for low-frequency sounds.

tunnel2
16073728C.MNNYD/F.fMFNY/FLYNNN
This is a different variation of "tunnel". It uses less CPU power and generally looks a little better.

wax
15716612FFNNYB/GravMSNN/OLYNAN
Nice colors, looks looks like it is melting.

wiggler
65021C.SNNND/F.aFFNN/RSYNNN
The shape wiggles aimlessly around the window.

xmms
65278DSNNNC/RaMRXY/FLNXNN
A fairly ordinary configuration, but with an XMMS logo added.
