Visual Synthesizer produces moving 3D images from still images , all controllable in real-time. larger size euro 4.290,00 A sampling synthesizer takes audio in or regenerates it from a wave generator and then modulates it with filters and amplifiers before outputting the sound. In a similar fashion the CG-8 can take in still images, create motion pictures from these and then modulate them with Modifiers and Fade Controller. Starting with picture files (JPEG’s) as the prime source, overlay files (PNG) used for overlays and built in Computer Graphics, all stored on the internal hard drive, the CG-8 can add any of more than 200 Photo effects and then from more than 60 Overlay effects before finally passing the output to the image modifiers which let you add further motion along X/Y/Z axes and control background colour/hue shifting. This final modulation can be set for rate, depth and waveform just like the LFO in an audio synth. More than 200 Photo effects and more than 60 Overlay effects . 16 trigger pads, a twin D-Beam controller, an assignable X-Y pad, control knobs or an optional foot switch. Adjustable frequency and peak detection provides graphic modulation based on the incoming audio. VGA, S-video or composite video (NTSC or PAL) output. MIDI compatibility with support for V-LINK enabled instruments. Variety of effects and parameters Features more than 260 effects. In combination with these effects and a variety of parameters, like X/Y/Z axis control, Color, or Speed, create amazing moving images from stills easily and quickly. Up to 128 patches in a project Save all the picture elements and effects associated with a single image in a patch for instant recall during the performance. Overlay of moving and title images Enables 2 layers of moving images with 3D motion images and title images. Tactile control surface for real-time performance Equipped with 16 pads to trigger visuals instantly plus twin infra-red D-Beams, XY pad and foot switch (optional) to give you hands-on control. Synchronization with audio input Enables the visuals to be controlled and synchronized with an audio source. Frequency and peak detection allow the graphic to animate itself to the incoming beat. MIDI and V-LINK connection With MIDI and V-LINK capability, the CG-8 can be externally controlled by any musician-friendly device such as keyboard controllers, V-Synth or V-Drums.
