Sync testing - Audio, video, sound


Lighting video audio sync testing from Ed Colmar on Vimeo.

This is a fairly simple loop test, illustrating the direction I'm going with this performance project.

The music is a sketch that Joshua, Telly and myself were working on Saturday night, which I believe was a branch from a piece that Owen and Joshua originally wrote. It is being played in Renoise with Massive and Circle doing the synthesis.

Midi is transmitted to a macbook pro running 3L with a very simple patch setup. No textures, or effects really, just flat shaded objects and background color changes.

The midi stream is translated to midi over IP on the macbook pro and sent to a macbook running max/msp. A custom max patch converts midi data to DMX, and drives the 16 LED color changers scattered around the room.

Here is what the 3L interface looks like as the loop plays back. Sorry it's kinda blurry.
