Have a look at my new VJ program...

http://futurerave.uk/
Guest https://resolume.com/footage/ is better
kotu Yeah had a look at that

It's very different

Looks like a traditional VJ program in that it lets you play video clips

Mine doesn't do that... instead it just responds to the beat

Very different
silver Pretty cool, what did you program it in?
kotu Thanks!

I'm using an old version of C++Builder (Turbo C++ 2006)
Guest use visual studio express, its free https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/visual-studio-express-vs.aspx
kotu fine, i'll just rewrite my code

lol
Guest you can add custom C++ library, and just make a project file, with alot better modern IDE

its probably the same as visual studio http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4445418/how-to-add-additional-libraries-in-c

ok you are making me laugh a bit

first you say https://resolume.com/footage/ is better

then you try to convince me to use a different development tool

not sure what the link to stackoverflow is doing in there

nice posts though, nice posts
Guest it is better, its pro shit for big screens in clubs





it all teh glitz and glam of syndicate and q dance on your stage
kotu it's not supposed to be the best, it's just an alternative way to do things.

working specifically via a audio input, not a ethernet link which one of your videos shows.

[actually it's just really a proof of concept program, the next level would be better graphics, hardware ie. lights controller, and support for breakbeat]
Guest you only have a screenshot and want people to buy it for ?3

put a demo up on youtube with this playing




or this

kotu forgive me, my site isn't as clear as it should be.... there is a demo for download on the front page

you can run the demo, and run those tracks in youtube, and it will pick up the audio just because they are playing

i'm away to update my site! lol
Guest better off getting a focusrite saffire and putting a channel through FL Studio mixer

kotu mine is solid it displays boxes all night

who said that
silver Guest doesn't understand the concept of a commercial product and a small little release, please ignore him.

Quite like it, similar to oldskool milkdrop on winamp :)

Thankyou Silver, I appreciate your positive comments.

Guest was quite amusing me actually, lol

I also appreciated Milkdrop (some of the views) but such a program in my opinion needs to be beat-focussed, and not all the views were.


EDIT There could be a lot more to it, but I need the motivation! lol

EDIT Seeing as you 'quite like it', might I point you to a new section I have just added to the FAQ page, regarding the program's controls? Thanks very much!
Guest i understand the concept, but it does`nt work, what audio source is it actually using, "what u hear"

it does exactly the same thing when audio is playing or not

its would be better off just being a opensource project on github, for everyone else to add bitmaps and AVS. which was made opensource years ago, which should have been made standalone years ago

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Visualization_Studio

someone just made a web version you can play winamp AVS in https://github.com/azeem/webvs

don`t know how good this source is http://www.1014.org/code/nullsoft/avs/

That is not true. When you are listening to a 4/4 signal, such as hardcore, it synchs itself to the beat. Silver has obviously got it working.

It gets the audio of what you are playing straight from the sound card using DirectSound, then predicts the time of the next beat, taking into account latency of sound card. So it looks in time.

You should get green activity in the spectrum and spectrogram on the demo, notably curves which look like lowercase letter 'r's in the spectrogram. This is covered on the FAQ section of my site, but here is a image of what it should look like....


Guest it says the warface track is 290bpm, which is what it says when you load it with or without audio playing in winamp using directsound output and makes no difference
kotu That track is mixed bpm as well as mixed breakbeat w/ 4-4.

The program does have difficulty with some gabba tracks because of the type of kick drum, however a lot work ok.

It does say for hardcore only! That is all I listened to during the development of the program and all I am concerned with at the minute.

Should work fine with most 4/4 ie hardcore, hard trance, most techno (for example classic techno in the 140-150 bpm range), house etc.

Hope that's alright.

To Guest: just accept you don't like the software and that's that!!
Samination I think that Milkdrop and AVS have always had problems with fast and distorted kickdrums. Most of the time it thinks the music is 90BPM for me so i have to set the BPM to a fixed rate.

kotu Ok, thanks
Guest your gabba does`nt have distorted kick drums, the distortion is just the mid range, the main punch comes out the sub box speaker

kotu Think I'm gonna drop the prices to £1.50 personal and £7.50 business.

Do you guys thinks this is reasonable seeing as it is only a prototype?
kotu Changed the prices.

Lol, "just download this 17GB IDE", it's free.

Looks like you've done some good work man and a fun project. Did you do your own Fourier analysis or something for beat detection? If so I would be curious to know if you self-taught and what resources you used...

Cheers dude

For FFT I use fftw
http://www.fftw.org/

I am actually self-taught mainly in programming, but picked up lots of stuff when I was working

I use DirectSound for the audio capture and OpenGL for the graphics output

Working on a side project to this one at the moment...
