The ECLECTIC METHOD REMIX, Part Two - Jamming

This is part two of a series with guest instructor Jonny Wilson of the Eclectic Method. You may want to start with the introduction post covering the overview of the workflow and the first topic on creating A/V samples.

In this tutorial we'll be looking at loading movie clips into VDMX and jamming on them using a MIDI controller.

Any MIDI instrument, OSC sender, and DMX console can be used to trigger clips and adjust FX parameters in VDMX. For more information on working with various types of controllers see the MIDI introduction tutorial.

STEP 1: JAMMING ON CLIPS

Use a MIDI drum pad or keyboard to quickly trigger A/V samples and eject on note off. Setup for movie triggering can be found in the Media Bin plugin.

Also check out the basics of movie playback.

STEP 2: VISUAL FX

The free 3rd party FX Jonny is using in this video can be found at the v002 github page.

For more details see the tutorial explaining how to use visual FX in VDMX.

Next up in this series, part three - working with Ableton Live.
