Max4Live Visuals

Post by NJ-VOD » Wed Jan 08, 2014 6:34 pm

Hey Max4Live Users of DSF,

Ok there is this super cool M4L device called "Ganz Graf Mod X".
It basically creates visuals that react to audio.

What i did with this is i put it in a audio rack and modulated the settings of this device with other M4L Devices that come with the Ableton Suite.
I finally mapped some macros to play and experiment with.

This rack is able to do a automatic visual performance for you while you are performing your music.
You can mess with the macros but if you know what you are doing you can of course go deeper.
Of course it wont replace a VJ but if you want, test it out:

Advanced Description
[+] Spoiler
The Rack is divided in 2 chains: "Thru" which lets the original audio through, and "Ganz Graf" the muted chain where the magic happens.
In this chain there is a Gate Effect to only let Transients through if you want. The Threshold can be controlled by the macro "Gate".
After that a limiter is placed to push the signal up if required. The volume can be controlled with "Envelope Push".
The signal then comes into an Envelope Follower (M4L) that sits directly in front of an Device Randomizer (M4L). This Randomizer randomises the 4 main parameters of "Ganz Graf" while 2 LFO (M4L) randomize the 2 dropdown boxes. The LFOs Rates are controlled by "Slow". The "Random" controls the Device Randomizers Parameter "Random".
The "Color" is simply color or white only ;)
Wow lots of text (at least for me), sorry for my bad English and feedback is of course appreciated. Hope someone is interested. Oh and no, i dont wanna advertise M4L :lol: sorry if it looks like this is the case

Cheers!
