Let animation work to the beat of the music

Google translates it from German into English
Hope the question is understood anyway ..

I'm still excited about what this software does.
However, I think the audio function (S2L) a bit lean or I have not quite seen through how it works.

Switching cues to the beat works wonderfully. , ,

I am experimenting with the following
4 Adj Tripar Plus
have some RGB animations created (blinking and color animations etc)
Is there a way that the currently selected animation works in time with the music and not in the integrated speed?
Should then but also in other animations I then via button select automatically work.

I didn't test but I guess it's possible to add the animation to a speed dial widget and control the speed with that.

It will be a disappointing result to my experience ... what we hear is not the same as is measured, what we find important in the music isn't what a spectrum analyser measures...

If you want a true BPM audio detecting solution you will have to go to other products doing the (audio) BPM stuff.

80% of my freelance jobs I'm into busking around - small setup: QLC+ bigger setups: GrandMA (because of hardware not logic or software [believe me !!])

In QLC+ I found a way how I have control over the amount bass, low-mids, high-mids, high-hats and general power influences the BPM counter.
I'm sending the 5 (intensity) signals over artnet to LightJams, LJ does the processing of audio and gives me 5 channels of artnet back into QLC+ (being what I call: processed, average, trending signals, high hats (strobe) and true beats) I can decide which channel influences what fixture/EFX/chaser/Matrix/...
Or I'm using submaster sliders in VC to influence (lower = inverse) the general view; Or I use level sliders to really emphasise power or tempo of the music.

Am I happy with this solution? Not completely ... it makes everything very complex in setup and pre-programming (and these hours aren't paid for)

QLC+ 5 import/export possibilities may have great potentials here...

Thank you very much for the very interesting statement. Of course I can also do beatmatching often not really super-synchronous.
Therefore, I am very interested in the created fader for manual BPM adjustment.

How do I create one and connect the RGB matrix scripts or sequences with it?


Oh yes

If you think you have a stable beat signal you can assign this signal to the tap button of the speeddial feature

I love the google translation Guaranteed again translated incorrectly.
I also confirmed that the audio signal is not always 100% there is live DJ and there are always differences in the level, especially bass volume

You had written a fader to create a manual beat adjustment via the fader.

Do you have an example file for me?

I also add my German text here again, which you can possibly translate into your national language, hopefully more understandable.



DEUTSCH
Ich liebe die google Übersetzung . Garantiert wieder falsch übersetzt.
Ich bestätigte dir auch das das Audiosignal nicht immer 100 % da ist Bin halt live DJ und da gibts immer mal Unterschiede im Level insbesondere Bassvolumen

Du hattest doch geschrieben einen Fader kreiert zu haben um über den Fader eine manuelle Beatanpassung zu erzeugen.

Hast du da mal eine Beispieldatei für mich ?

Ich füge hier auch mal meinen deutschen Text wieder mit ein, das du den eventuell auch mal in deine Landessprache hoffentlich verständlicher übersetzen kannst.

Neh kein Fader -> If you think you have a stable beat signal you can assign this signal to the tap button of the speeddial feature.
(und PS: I nutze ein anderes Programm um die audio um zu setzen ... sehe ^^^^)

:D :D :D
Oh, right then I got it wrong: shock:
Such a fader would be synonymous good instead of the wheel where then instead of percent or so even the BPM are displayed which I can read at VDJ (VirtualDJ).

I experimented with the VDJ Artnet plugin yesterday but have not gotten it to work but let's see ..
Must actually work in between: lol:
