The available settings:

Height: Set the height of the visualizer relative (in percents) to the height of the page. The value is between 20 and 100. The default value is 33. Setting it to 100 make the visualizer cover the page entirely.
Bar: Set the bar's height. The value is between 1 and 33. The default value is 17.
Waterfall: Set the waterfall's height relative (in percents) to the visualizer's height. The value is between 0 and 70. The default value is 33. Setting it to 0 make the waterfall invisible.
Brightness: Set the brightness of the visualizer. The value is between 1 and 70. The default value is 17.
Bass: Set the bass attenuation in dB. The value is between -50 and 0. The default value is -30.
Speed: Set the speed of the waterfall. The value is between 1 and 12. The default value is 2. Without frame drops, the speed of the waterfall is speed * monitor_refresh_rate / interval * 100 / scale_y pixels/s.
Mic: Allow microphone input. The value of 20 means 4x gain, 30 means 9x gain. The default value is 0 (disabled).
Mic Pan: Pan microphone input to the left (-10) or right (10). The default value is 0.
Interval: Set the frame rate interval. The value is between 1 and 4. The default value is 1. Without frame drops, the frame rate of the visualizer is monitor_refresh_rate / interval. This is a useful option on a high refresh rate monitor (e.g 240 Hz monitor).
Scale X: Set canvas horizontal scale (in percents). Lower value reduces CPU usage but image quality is also reduced. The value is between 30 and 100. The default value is 100.
Scale Y: Set canvas vertical scale (in percents). Lower value reduces CPU usage but image quality is also reduced. This also affects waterfall speed. The value is between 30 and 100. The default value is 100.
Codecs: Set allowed codecs to mitigate unsmooth experience. The default value is Block AV1. If your machine is powerful enough, you probably want to set it to All. If your machine has H.264 accelerated video playback but no VP9 accelerated playback, you probably want to set it to Only H.264.
