FFRend

ckorda — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 14:30:55 +0000

FFRend (Freeframe Renderer) is a renderer for Freeframe plugins. It allows you to chain any number of plugins together, automate their parameters using oscillators, and record the output to an AVI file. The input is a video (AVI/MPG), still image (BMP/JPG/GIF), or source plugin. FFRend is open-source freeware for Windows 2000/XP, and includes comprehensive help, an installer, and a simple demo project.

Most VJ softwares support Freeframe, and can record their output, so what makes FFRend different? FFRend is optimized for content generation, whereas VJ softwares are typically optimized for live performance. The key difference is that FFRend never drops frames, even when your project is too CPU-intensive to be rendered in real time. It's also possible to perform with FFRend. All parameters and oscillator settings can be controlled via MIDI.

FFRend also supports plugin authoring, which means you can export a FFRend project as a Freeframe plugin. The exported plugin is called a metaplugin, because it uses other plugins as components. A metaplugin can be used in any Freeframe-compatible host application, and behaves as if you were running the equivalent project in FFRend.

Resolume Avenue

sleepytom — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 20:21:05 +0100

Resolume Avenue 3
Resolume Avenue 3 is a real-time instrument for live (audio) visual performances.

Audiovisual Playback
Play Quicktime and AVI video files with audio or combine any .mov or .avi video file with any .wav or .aiff audio file.

Audiovisual Effects
Resolume 3 supports both VST audio effects and FreeFrameGL openGL video effects. Use them separately or combine them to create exciting new audiovisual effects. You can use as many effects as you like on clips, layers and the entire composition.

3D Compositing
Freely position, scale and rotate your clips and layers or even the entire composition.

OpenGL Accelerated
The entire video engine is running in 32 bit floating point precision on the video card's GPU so you can use alpha channels and masks and get the best image quality possible on today's hardware.

Global BPM Tempo
Everything can be linked to the global (Beats Per Minute) tempo to create a fully synchronized audiovisual performance. Automatically pitch the audio and video and synchronize parameter automation. Use the beat snap function to trigger clips in sync with the beat.

Output and Preview Monitors
With the preview monitor you preview a clip or layer and configure it so it looks and sounds just the way you like it before you play it.

Flexible Interface
The Resolume 3 interface scales to the size of your monitor. Use it on a 1280x800 laptop screen or on a 30 Inch 2560x1600 resolution screen. The more screen-real-estate you have the more comfortable it is to use any number of clips and layers.

English Deutsch Nederlands
The Resolume 3 interface is localized to English, Dutch and German. He's a quick learner and he likes to travel so more languages coming soon.

Audio Analysis
Resolume 3 can do audio FFT analysis to make any parameter bounce to the music. Animate the size, rotation or position of a clip or make effects dance to the beat.

DXV Codec
Our DXV QuickTime video codec is the fastest codec available for Resolume. It let's you work effortlessly with a lot of layers and high resolution video. Because it does all the playback on the videocard's GPU it's faster than any other codec. More info

Video mapping
With the keystone plugin and masks your screen does not have to be rectangular anymore. You can map the video onto any object or surface. Combined with multi-screen output you can even project on multiple surfaces or objects.

Multi-screen
Because Resolume Avenue can output any resolution it works perfectly with the Matrox DualHead and TrippleHead to deliver multi-screen performances.

MIDI & OSC
Use MIDI from any device or software to control the entire interface. Want more precision & flexibility? Resolume 3 can receive OSC (Open Sound Control) messages too!

Crossfader
Assign any layer to the A or B bus of the crossfader and mix it just like you do on a DJ mixer but now with audio and video.

Cross-platform
Because Resolume 3 uses cross-platform technologies like openGL and C++ it runs on both Mac OSX 10.4.9 or later and Windows XP & Vista.

Minimum System Requirements
Windows: ATI Radeon 9600 or better. NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 or better. 1GB RAM.
Mac: Intel processor. Quartz Extreme graphics card (Resolume Avenue is not compatible with integrated Intel graphics processors). 1GB RAM.

Isadora

About Isadora®

Isadora is a graphic programming environment for Macintosh and Windows that provides interactive control over digital media, with special emphasis on the real-time manipulation of digital video.

Because every performance or installation is unique, Isadora was designed not to be a "plug and play" program, but instead offers building blocks that can be linked together in an almost unlimited number of ways, allowing you to follow your artistic impulse.

Isadora was initially created to facilitate the performances of Troika Ranch, a media intensive dance company co-directed by Isadora's creator, composer and media-artist Mark Coniglio. It reflects over 15 years of practical experience with realtime interaction.

It also serves as the primary tool used in Troika Ranch's Live-I Workshops. It is designed to be easy to learn for those new to the world of real-time interaction. The titles and values of every actor are visible to the user (though they can be hidden if you desire). Help is available for all actors and their inputs and outputs from within the program. Isadora is accompanied by a complete manual that includes numerous tutorials and example files to get you started.
