Eurorack & Live Coding Guest Tutorial with Sarah GHP! — VDMX - MAC VJ SOFTWARE
**Summary of Sarah GHP's Guest Tutorial on Connecting VJ App Output to an Analog Synth** - **Purpose**: Sarah GHP shares her setup for combining digital and analog video processing in real-time, using VDMX as a keystone. - **Computer & Software**: - Uses Apple M1 or M2 Macbook. - Live codes SVGs using La Habra (Clojurescript + Electron framework). - Utilizes Signal Culture's applications like Framebuffer and Interstream. - VDMX is the primary software for effects, routing, and recording. - **Video Signal Transformation**: - Converts HDMI to SDI and SDI to Analog using BlackMagic boxes. - Outputs composite or component signals for Eurorack setup. - Alternatives include using an analog camera or direct HDMI to composite converters. - **Eurorack Setup**: - Focuses on the video row with LZX TBC2, LZX Memory Palace, and Batumi II LFO. - LZX TBC2 converts analog video to 1V RGB standard for LZX modules. - **Output, Monitoring & Recording**: - Uses a cheap car monitor for backup. - For recording, formats signal back to SDI and uses Blackmagic HyperDeck Studio HD Mini. - Main output can be sent through an inexpensive Composite to HDMI converter. - **Hardware & Software Setup**: - Hardware flow: Computer > HDMI to SDI > SDI to Analog > TBC2 > Memory Palace > Outputs. - Software flow: La Habra (Electron app) > VDMX Layer 1 > Syphon > Signal Culture apps > VDMX Layers > Output. - **VDMX Usage**: - Adds effects, coordinates input/output, and records footage. - Uses extreme effects for texture, practical effects for augmentation. - Utilizes multiple layers, blend modes, and MIDI shortcuts for control. - **Analog Synth Setup**: - LZX Memory Palace is the primary module, working in feedback mode with external signals. - LZX TBC2 converts composite signals to 1V RGB for Memory Palace. - Batumi LFO provides dynamic control over Memory Palace's feedback. - **Output & Monitoring**: - Outputs go to monitor and projector, or through a Blackmagic Analog to SDI box for recording. - **Performance**: - Layers and contrasts different types of feedback for varied visual outcomes. - Brings in short films from other synths for additional layers. - **Video Demonstration**: - A video of the live performance is provided, but not viewable in text format.
