User reviews

Limited output

The audiovisual workflow is awesome. It has a great amount of depth that makes it powerful but easy to use if you’re comfortable with synthesizers. Very good at getting the vibes out of your head.

Unfortunately, there isn’t an elegant way to get live synchronized video out of the app. I had imagined using it as a reactive component of live performance, but popout to external displays is only supported in the standalone app, which can’t run in the background.

This version is good for live play on its own as a video synth or for pre-rendering video, but it doesn’t work well if you try to plug it into a looper or DAW and play it alongside instruments.

Big no

Not fun at all no live sounds no quality visuals no easy interface

Sieht cool aus

Alles Top. Bitte noch ein Audio Tool integrieren damit auch keine MIDI Files sondern wenn Mann Spotify hört schöne Gafiken dazu bekommt. Danke

Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung! Wir nehmen Ihren Vorschlag gerne zur Kenntnis ☺️ Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Entering Visual Ecstasy

If you are looking for a way to expand your musical aspirations into a visual experience this is a great app for you it can take you in many directions, from customised GLSL shaders all the way to video as texture maps. It is easy to work with as are all Imaginando apps. If you use FRMS the modulation matrix will be a breeze. Give it a whirl you won’t be disappointed, trust me 😊

Connects to MPC Live 3

I’m super excited to get this working on my new MPC Live 3 and connect it to my iPad Air! It’s going to be so much fun making hip-hop beats with my own visuals. It’s going to be on another level!

Response from developer

We're glad you're exited to use VS with your MPC! They pair very well indeed =) We have a tutorial on our instagram page on how to use the MPC with VS if you're interested. Thank you for your review!
