Synching traktor with resolume
Well some guys always talked about it but I never saw a video of it so I decided to try it myself
What I did is basically this:
-
Send traktor’s internal clock to resolume using midiyoke
-
Duplicate the signals of my x-session pro using midiox (I tried to use traktor’s send option, but couldn’t figure it out). I then map resolume with faders, and the “resynch” button, I asign it to the button I use to cue songs (so that I can resynch videos everytime I cue up a song.
What I concluded was:
- You get audio time outs if your resolume clips are bloated with complex effects (if there’s no effect, there was no problem)
- latency is fine
- It’s impossible to actually mix and be aware of the clips you’re triggering; it could work if you have a vj, and you just help him by sending the tempo and fading commands. You could also assign your eq’s or effects, to trigger video effects in resolume.
- It’s way too risky to try it live on one single computer!
