Hello all! This is my first post but i’ve been following the blog for a while now, love everything you all do!
The question i pose is similar to VJ articles that have been on DJtechtools, but none of those articles quite solve my problem.
I am Djing for our school’s student sixth form after-party, where we get a big marquee in a field with visuals and a big speaker system and have a big party. I want to incorporate some kind of visual projection behind the DJ booth, that would be able to run un-touched for most of the time, but be triggered into changing patterns or speeding up at particular moments in songs, either by keyboard shortcut or a midi controller. I would also like to occasionally play video that would not need to be beat synced (ie. Lyric/Music videos for certain songs), and thus would want the video to mix in from the visuals (although this isn’t necessary). Ideally all this would run from a secondary computer from an AUX in off the mixer. Does anyone know of software capable of doing all this (baring in mind i currently have no VJ content of my own).
I have the paid version of morphyre which is awesome, doesn’t run very smoothly on my machine though. Mostly i use milkdrop with the “Triptonaut” preset pack
I was checking into vdmx.( I believe is what its called) pretty cool. Pricey but I was messing with it and found it pretty cool. Mac only. There is also a ganz m4l device that looks pretty cool.
where can i find old music videos, preferably 60’s-80’s? Some of them are very bizarre but interesting. if i had a sample, id show you guys but i dont. i hope you guys know what im talking about. thanks!
