This brings back days of fun with Winamp and AVS. It had shaders before shaders were a thing. It was effectively my first geometry / vectors course. I hope this is as fun to play with.

I’m working on a new VJ app here: https://vizlab.app/ It connects to pioneer gear and changes visualizer patterns and loops and shaders in sync with the music structure. It uses canvas and webgl so you can write your own JavaScript to control things. There will be a free and open source version. Thanks for your patience, I’m working down the Show HN checklist as we speak.

Less straight forward but game engines can be used as VJ software. Unity, Godot, Unreal
can you share any pointers on where to get started with this, ie using game engine for artistic video generation? i've seen it accomplished but never found any resources on how to achieve it.

I was considering submitting a Show HN post too when it hits that point, but didn’t know if there was much interest on here. Turns out there is!
For anyone who is interested, the app I’ve been working on can be found here -> https://hydra.virusav.com
It’s FLOSS and the repo is here -> https://github.com/n3uromanc3r/hydra
Weirdly earlier today (prior to seeing this post) I considered starting a sister project to hydra that allows you to build a mixer and visual pipeline using a node-based system instead of the more rigid standard mixer setup.

Post the announcement when it's ready at https://vjun.io we help you promote it further xx
I use Resolume professionally in my job building and operating LED walls for live events. I have a rackmount custom PC with a 4090 in a shockproof road case with popout monitors. One important skill is being able to map content onto multiple video walls. For example at a volleyball charity event I had a jumbotron with 4 walls where I needed to put camera shots and sponsors and also 2 walls on the side for a live char…

Interesting! In my spare time for the last couple of months I’ve been working on a web-based VJ tool/toy. Nearing v1.0.0, which I hope to release in a week or so.
