Re: Recent festi visuals - Space themed

Love the aliens with the spinning eyes, the space invaders, and what appears to be some fun masking with the rainbow aliens!

Thanks! I'm very grateful for the chroma key modules. As you probably know, that part took some experimenting and learning with distance, lighting, etc., especially with a fairly reflective white hat!

Really imaginative, fun visuals. Uplifting music and messages.
Many thanks! Sometimes I enjoy creating music and videos that are simply fun, and sometimes I like to include a bit of deeper messaging.

Magic videos with 3-D models, masking, & other fun

I'm continuing to appreciate Magic Music Visualizer. Below are three videos from my latest album, I Like the Chords , all created with Magic. I freaked out the cat while recording the flying bicycle in the middle of the dining room. But he seemed to appreciate the leopard print tights. Enjoy! https:...

Re: Animated logo

Very cool! Alongside several levels of animation, I also appreciate the use of just a bit of color to set off the gray/black layers.

Fun w vid/ text masking, kaleidoscopic vid, slide animation

Here are a few more videos showcasing the fun possibilities of Magic Studio. "Sentimental" plays with kaleidoscopic video and chromakey, and relies on Magic for the slide animation. https://youtu.be/Mr8yy73-ToY It also involved standing in the driveway with very cold water spraying down on...

Re: errors when exporting movies from version 2.2

Ah, that's good to hear. You did make quite a significant improvement with the file exporting in the most recent version, so I look forward to trying it more once this bug is worked out. Please let me know if you need any addt'l info in the meantime. Many thanks!

Re: errors when exporting movies from version 2.2

I misspoke in an earlier email--I'm using a sine function to modulate the color shift, at least in this example. I don't know if the same thing occurs with other ColorHSB modulation sources. I did a couple low-res exports of about 15 secs to illustrate the issue. This is the export of part of the 1s...

Re: errors when exporting movies from version 2.2

Many thanks! Re: the issue with color and 3d models, it's occurring when I feed an .obj 3d model through the colorHSB module, with the color set to modulate (usually with a volume input). In at least some of the cases (I can check later today to see if that's exclusively the case, if needed), the mo...

Re: errors when exporting movies from version 2.2

An additional observation since I posted: with another file, I've observed the same flipped-upside-down issue with two other types of modules run through a starfield module--the star module, and the video file module. Also in v2.2 of Magic. Again, all looks fine in the Magic preview window until exp...

errors when exporting movies from version 2.2

I'm having a bizarre problem with exporting movies in Magic version 2.2 64-bit, with the x264 addon--but it also happens with the other mp4 formats. These are files I created in v2.13, and then did additional editing on in v.2.2. With one video, a few png images that I have running through starfield...

Re: demo version works fine, paid version does not

The option to close the audio input device, now included in the v 2.13 beta, seems to eliminate the need for me to switch back and forth between audio drivers when using my DAW vs Magic. Thanks!

Re: demo version works fine, paid version does not

Thanks for your response. If I'm understanding correctly, that option might also prevent having to switch back and forth between different audio devices when running different applications (i.e., onboard audio for Magic and my ASIO device for my digital audio workstation), which would also be helpfu...

Re: Premium: Can't play audio file

This thread has been very helpful to me. I just created a post, not yet approved by moderators, describing an identical issue on Windows 10. I had almost given up on searching when I came across this thread. For whatever reason, the demo version worked fine with the Behringer UMC202HD ASIO audio set...

demo version works fine, paid version does not

While the demo version of Magic Studio 2.12 has been working great on my computer, the paid version of Magic Studio 2.12 I just purchased today does not. This is quite odd. I'm using Windows 10 Pro 64-bit, version 10.0.15063 Build 15063, on a Dell I7 with 16 GB RAM. I'm using the file Magic_Setup_Wi...
