# Gradient

Use the Gradient to create an effect based on colours and patterns of your choosing.

You can access the Gradient effect in the following ways:

- As a Batch node. This node accepts a front clip and a matte clip, and outputs a result and output matte clip.
- As a Modular Keyer node.
- From the EditDesk. Select Flame FX from the A/V Tools box and then click Gradient. You can select Front, Front/Matte, or None from the Input Mode box. You can process a matte clip in addition to the result clip, provided that Process Matte is enabled in the Gradient Setup menu.
