# Beat Accent
A single music-hit sting: impact flash, micro scale-pulse on the subject, immediate decay.
**Beat Accent**
```html beat-accent.html theme={null}
Beat Accent
```
Copy npx hyperframes add beat-accent to the clipboard
That writes one file: `compositions/components/beat-accent.html`.
## Paste it into your composition
Open `compositions/components/beat-accent.html` and copy what is inside into your own composition.
A component has no size or duration of its own. It takes both from the composition
you paste it into.
## Variables
Every one of these has a default, so the piece works untouched. Set the ones you
want to change on the element:
| Variable | Default | Accepts | What it does |
| - | - | - | - |
| `text` | `BOOM` | string | Word or short label emphasized by the beat hit. |
| `flashColor` | `accent` | `accent`, `soft`, `bright` | Token-backed accent tone used by the radial flash. |
| `intensity` | `1` | 0.5 to 2, step 0.1 | Strength of the scale pulse, flash, and shake. |
Set them with `data-variable-values` on the element that mounts it. These are the
defaults, so this behaves exactly like the preview above until you change one:
```html wrap theme={null}
```
Tagged `motion-primitive` `effects` `burst` `sting` `emphasize` `impact`.
