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.

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. 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 F…

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.

Unreal has a particle generator that is used sometimes in art videos.

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…

If you have photos of this setup anywhere, I think we would all like to see it!

Second that! I would love to see the PC

There are two custom rack mounted PCs, one of which is dedicated to Resolume. Here is a pic of the rig in action operating 3 walls:

The PC on the right is running Resolume.

I'm having difficulty understanding the Resolume products/pricing structure. I'd like to create some visualizations based on music I'm making, such as to create YouTube videos. Would I need only the Avenue VJ software to get started, or would I also need a second tool like Wire?

The Black Friday sale is good if you can wait. Set a calendar reminder.

So many people cut their teeth with cracked versions of resolume. I have seen a few VJ careers launched that way. They buy tools all the time now. Huzzah for the software.

I just got in to serious video editing with DaVinci Resolve. The core product — a fully featured video editor including SFX (Fusion), colour correction (Color), and sound editing (Fairlight) — costs…

…$0.

It’s entirely free.

There’s a paid ‘studio’ version which presumably you need if you want to link multiple systems together. I understand it’s pay-once, vs. Avid’s yearly sub. And Blackmagic makes hardware, where I assume they make a bunch of their money.

It’s a really interesting model: get you in to the ecosystem with a full product. Now you’re in, hopefully you stay, and you buy stuff.

I’m incredibly thankful for it. I know ‘changed my life’ is an over-used phrase but right now, it’s really close.

Someone needs to code all the modifications, can it be controlled by MIDI

The renderer (visual) has to be made by someone that knows how to build/code such a thing, yeah. Then once presented to the end user via the Hydra web app, that user may or may not have various UI components to influence and adjust the renderer output (sliders, buttons, etc). The app supports MIDI, and various UI components can be assigned to MIDI controls.
