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.

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

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!

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!

Fantastisch

…genau was ich gesucht habe. Nach einer gewissen Einarbeitungszeit gelingen tolle Visualisationen mit persönlicher Note. Kann ich nur empfehlen!

Hi again. Is your problem solved. Have you tried again since then. Can you please confirm to us? Thank you! Best regards

Hope they’re able to use Metal rendering

I’m aware that they weren’t using Metal in the past because rebuilding shaders for Metal wasn’t worth the effort as it would be zero use to their large Windows based installs. I’m hoping that Apple’s new porting options provides them a way to get super performance shaders on the iPad easily.

SUPPORTS AIFF FILES

That was my big issue with the app. Other than that, I enjoyed what I could do with it and the presets were a good starting place. That would have made me update my rating just from that, but with all the other new features this far after it was released, that shows the level of support the developers are giving this app. If you were looking at the most liked reviews and seeing 1y, 3y, thinking this app was dead, check out the feature list and enjoy!

I got my new M4 iPad Pro and the VS seems to be Perfect to combine beats with graphics.
What I would ask for is, to make it possibile to use all‘ Kind Of graphic or foto content as a Layer as well

Something special to look at

Innovation is a rare thing when it comes to apps running on my phone, so, this one is outstanding. No brainer for visual artists and live performers.

Video Record Export Issue

I want to first start off by saying, this is a good visualizer app and something I’ve been looking for in the App Store for quite some time. That being said, there’s a massive issue I’ve come across when exporting videos I record in the app. For some reason, the videos I record end up being 30 plus minutes when I’ve only recorded a minute and 36 seconds. I’m hoping this bug gets resolved soon.

Hi there, thanks for alerting us to your issue - we need to investigate and reproduce it ourselves.

Update sorry that was my fault there isn’t anything missing thanks for your help

When I first purchased this app it had some interesting visuals and now when I try to use it it seems like you remove them what happened to the original visuals ? ?

Hi Greg, we haven't removed any materials from VS, from either the Factory or Retina Refill banks. If you have any missing, please try re-installing VS. (Make sure to back up and save custom presets, preset banks, custom materials, etc first)

Good but NDI stream not working

It does what it is supposed to and looks good but I bought this because it has the NDI feature. Turning NDI on never asks for network access and the stream never starts.

Hi there, we're really sorry. We're not sure why NDI is not working, it has worked fine in the past during testing. We need to investigate what has changed. Once again, sorry for this frustrating issue.
