We Got The 8 Ball Rolling, Resolume 6.0.8 Released

phpBB [video]


We've only heard about Compton in rap songs but like Eazy-E, we did get the 8 ball rolling. Here is Resolume Avenue & Arena 6.0.8. This version has more than 40 ounces of bug fixes and is packing some nice additions to the Parameter Envelopes. You can now create envelope presets. Edit the parameters of an envelope keyframe and when you're done fold it to make it smaller.

Resolume Avenue & Arena 6.0.6 update: "If I ever see you again..."

Minor point updates are like those songs that get stuck in your head.

In time, another song will come along and you'll wonder why you liked this one so much. But right now, it's the best thing in the world. You're blasting that baby on repeat, singing along at the top of your lungs, moshing out in the bedroom. While your significant other looks on in equal parts amusement and embarrassment.

Fire up your guilty pleasures on Spotify while you hit that download.
