Magic Music Visuals

it seems the values received are different, than what I'm used to. and also the regular beatclock, that isnt stretched over multiple beats, doesn't seem to be working I actually have a lot of problems to send the MIDI clock signal 24 times on every beat: I cannot create a precise timer to do this. ...

I updated the software: corrected a few bugs and added a few options.

the beat clock doesn't get through very often I am using LoopBe. I did only a few tests with both files and live music and the MIDI clock was in sync. But the code is still not perfect and perhaps depends on the PC's speed... In MMV, I am mostly using Beat clock and Beat clock / 4 and I get sync. I...

I only tested with the "Stereo mix" (aka "What U hear") turned on. But I guess any input device should work...

Any news about the "Random trigger"?

Hello to all, For a long time, I tried to find a software which could compute the BPM of an audio file or stream and send a MIDI clock beat to MMV. The only program I found (thanks to users on this forum) is WaveClock. But it only works on Mac. So, I designed my own software, which runs on Windows. ...

You are right, Eric, this is exactly what I need. Thanks a lot !

Hello ! I am still trying to get an input selector to select a random input on a beat... Until now, I am able to change the input in a sequence on the MIDI clock beat. But I still want to randomize this sequence. Would it be possible to use the Expression modifier with something like "rnd * x *...

Thank you for your answer, Eric. I know you work hard, be sure I appreciate this !

Hi Eric,

I guess you spend your whole time on version 2.0 of MMV. Any chance to get this "do not reset the inputs" option in version 1.65+ ? Or do I have to wait for version 2.0 ?

Thanks again.

Thanks for the answer, Eric.

Regarding Magic 2.0, do you have any information about the release date of the beta version? And do you already have an idea of the new functionalities/bug fixes for this version?

Thanks again.

Hello everyone!

I tried for the first time to use the text module and got a problem: I cannot use special characters in my text, such as accents (I am french...). Is there a way to achieve this (I tried using HTML codes)?

Thanks!

Thanks Eric for the explanation. Everything makes sense now. I guess that the option you mentioned would solve my issue .

When the MultiMix module is set to 0, the first Animation is displayed and it behaves normally: the Input Selector in the Animation scene works fine and the differente GL Shaders are displayed one after the other. This is the result I want to have. However, when I link the MultiMix Parameter to the ...

Images (continued)

Here are the scenes :

- "fractal beat" is scene 5
- "videos" is scene 1
- "animation" xx are scenes 2, 3 and 4

Hello everyone! I am trying to have a scene selector driven by the MIDI clock. I have 5 scenes : - scene 1: 20 video files plugged into an input selector. The index is changed on beat. Works fine. - scenes 2, 3 and 4: 30 GL shaders plugged into an input selector, and a transform module after the sel...

Great!

Well, my matter would be to think in beats instead of seconds... Actually, when I transform beats to seconds, my video starts to desynchronize after a while.

Do you plan to use beats in addition to times in the future ?

Thanks a lot!

And is there a way to hold the value more than 1 second? I tried to use for "Hold" parameters and it does not work...

Hello, I am still trying to randomize the order of the images displayed by a JPEGFolder module. The pictures change on every beat (110 BPM), using the parameters described on the screenshot. Now, I wish the result (ie. image index) to be randomized, and not in a sequence. Is there a way to achieve t...

Anyway, I'm adding a new modifier to 1.63 which won't be fps-dependent, and will be more friendly with the beat clock and with audio-based beats. It should be a decent solution.

I'm looking forward!

Thank you, Eric, for your answers.

I wish I could try Waveclock, but it is only available for the OS-X platform and I use a Windows PC...

I am currently using the playlist with scenes duration and an example of yours for a beat counter. I guess I will make that working according to my needs...

Thank you Sadler! I searched for "audio" and missed some...

Hello all Magic users! I am looking for shaders to use in the GLSLShader module. I already have the extension pack and downloaded a few from www.shadertoy.com. Do you know shaders that react to audio, using the AudioToImage module? I tried to find some on the Internet, but I could not find any websi...

Thank you for your answers and explanations! I managed to have one image on the beat using the following modifiers on frequency 20-40: scale, threshold on the transparency module. I added a peak modifier to have a nice and smooth effect. But I still cannot get the image to change on each beat. I gue...

Hello Eric, hello all Magic users, I recently bought Magic: it is a fantastic program! I am trying to mimic a BPM detector. For example, if I want to show an image on every beat, I use a transparency module with amount linked to a custom frequency of 20-40 with following parameters: scale 5.0, thres...
