Here is the split out of each javascript files

It build the passes for the badTV effect. It exposes badtvpasses.passes for a THREE.EffectComposer instance.

Create an instance

var badTVPasses	= new THREEx.BadTVPasses();

Everytime you render the scene, be sure to update it

badTVPasses.update(delta, now)		

Then you add those passes to an THREE.EffectComposer like that

badTVPasses.addPassesTo(composer)

It provides a bad tv jamming effect with sound. It depends on threex.badtvsound.js for the sound. First create the object.

var context   = new AudioContext()
var badTVJamming  = new THREEx.BadTVJamming(badTVPasses, context)

When you want to trigger the effect, just do

badTVJamming.trigger()

It plays a electical sound thru Web Audio API. It is used to simulate the noise made by a broken cathod ray tube. First create the object.

var context		= new AudioContext()
var badTVSound		= new THREEx.BadTVSound(context, context.destination)

When you want to play it, do

badTVSound.play()

It provide an easy way to fine tune threex.badtvpasses parameters thanks to Dat.GUI. It is interactive and simple! The typical usage is just:

THREEx.addBadTVPasses2DatGui(badTVPasses)
