Apply an Echo effect on top and match its delay to the emission so every wave is "frozen". CC Time Blend FX might also work, but is even more convoluted.

Okay I guess it's a bit more complicated. I'm rotoscoping an object. Suppose it's a dog. Suppose it's a dog that's sitting and then stands. I want waves to emit out as the dog goes from sitting to standing, but I want previously emitted waves to maintain their 'birth' shape. Using a blur/colorama effect will update the all emitted waves realtime. Imagine if perhaps they were smoke rings. I don't want my smoke rings to animate as the dog changes position. Does that make any sense?

Yes. Use Colorama. Duplicate your layer, blur it/ add glow. Slap on Colorama and use your blurred transparency/ Alpah as the input parameter. Define your color stops for the "lines". Now all you need to do is animate the phase/ offset.

I have an animated mask and I'd like to emit waves (concentric outlines) from the mask. The radio waves effect seems to emit from a point control rather than from the mask itself, so I can't get the lines to really radiate out from the mask. Is there any way to get this effect?
