Clip Render from external input
Posted: Mon Nov 28, 2022 15:03
I'm new so maybe I'm missing something and this is already possible.
For incorporating live video synthesis, it would be good to have a record function to create clips from an external video input in the same layer. Ideally the functionality could have some basic "quantize to beat" options for starting/stopping the recording on time, and a "auto switch to recorded clip" option for the recording to take over playing instead of the external video source. Refer to Akai samplers for inspiration.
I understand that this would have to happen in real time and might have frame drops, etc. But currently there is no way of looping external video inputs without either using a buffer effect or soloing the input's layer and using the record button.
