What microphone for audio reactive visuals?

I'm thinking about getting a microphone for audio reactive visuals. Previously I have gotten the audio signal straight from DJ mixer with XLR cable to my Roland Rubix22 audio interface, but it's not as reliable method as I thought. Sometimes the DJ might fiddle with line levels or mute them or some ...

External audio input not working

I'm having some problems with external audio input. When I select any input channel from "External Audio FFT Input" -dropdown menu, audio input selection resets to "Select input device" and I cant get any sound in. (See attached image) At the moment I am using Virtual Audio Cable...

Alex May's feedback plugin is great though not exactly the same but it does work in Res 6 on a per clip basis. It has a lot more options than the built-in source effect too.
I'll have to try that out. Thanks for the tip.

Re: Feedback source as an effect

Why is the feedback source plugin to begin with? It needs an input to generate anything. I don't really understand the question. The video router source can take layer textures as input, perhaps that would work for you. I mean that feedback source doesn't do anything by itself. It always needs some...

Trails can't do the kind of stuff I do with feedback.

Feedback source as an effect

Hi, I love the feedback source and playing with it, but it frustrates me a bit because it uses the whole composition as it's input. Is there any way to somehow use the feedback more like an effect so it affects only one clip, layer or group instead of the whole composition so I could for example mak...

Re: Ultrabook for VJing

Personally, I have found that a used 2011 Mac Book Pro 15" with the 1GB AMD GPU and i7 processor works GREAT for content creation. You can add a SSD Hard Drive and 16GB of ram for about $300-$400. The Laptop runs around $500-$700 so your total investment would be around $800-$1,100. It's only ...

Re: Ultrabook for VJing

Have you look at MSI GS43/GS63, etc? But they are not long life laptops =) That one I had missed. The specs seem very nice indeed, but build quality and battery life are also quite important for me. Though it seems that you can't get good performance and battery life in the same package, so I'll ha...

Ultrabook for VJing

Hi, I'm trying to choose a laptop for VJing and content creation. I have focused my search to small laptops because I would like to use it to create content with Cinema 4D on the go. But the problem with small laptops seems to be that they usually have quite poor GPUs which hinders the performance w...
