What is a halftone effect?

It represents continuous tones with discrete dots. Larger or denser dots read darker; smaller or separated dots read lighter.

Is MOSH Halftone a press-ready CMYK separation?

No. It is a live visual effect inspired by process-screen logic, not a replacement for professional separation, trapping, ink limits, or a physical proof.

What Dot Size should I use?

Use finer dots for detailed editorial texture and larger dots for posters, patterns, projections, or anything viewed at a distance.

Where is Halftone in Ether-MOSH?

Quick answer

Halftoning simulates continuous tone with regularly spaced dots whose size carries tonal information. Ether-MOSH turns that print logic into an animated GPU effect; Amount blends it in and Dot Size moves from fine texture to giant graphic circles.
