p10trancer is an iPad-native live video instrument for VJs and visual artists, inspired by the rich lineage of video mixers and samplers. Nine pads in a 3×3 grid, two output channels, a master fader, and effects you dial in by feel. Every gesture is performed live — there is no timeline, no track view, no beat grid. Plug in, hit a pad, see what happens. WHAT'S INSIDE • Nine independent video pads. Each pad can hold a video file, a still image, the iPad's front or back camera, a USB-C UVC camera (HDMI capture box, webcam), the keyer's composite output, or the master mix as a feedback source. • Two output channels with five master-mixer transitions: blur crossfade, linear swipe, star swipe, chroma key, luma key. A position fader sweeps between channels. • A six-effect rack on every pad: blur, internal feedback, chroma distortion, YUV phaser, luma phaser, edge enhance. Effects are bypassed by default — engage what you need. • Two independent pad-to-pad keyers, each with chroma or luma keying, threshold and softness. Keyers can chain (one keyer's foreground sources from another keyer) and self-feedback. • A simulated composite-NTSC pipeline. Frames are encoded into a simulated composite waveform with 4× horizontal oversampling, glitch effects mutate the encoded composite, and the result is decoded back. Chroma boost, HSync wobble, subcarrier drift, Y/C delay, dropouts, banded noise — every artifact is the kind of thing a real analog video processor produces, because it's produced by the same kind of operations. • HDMI external display through a DP-Alt-Mode USB-C dongle, switchable between HD 720p and NTSC 4:3. • Per-pad audio mixed through AVAudioEngine. Audio follows whichever channel its pad is routed to. Master output captures to MP4.

Blozzum Bitty is a studio for sound-reactive visual art. Build a composition from shapes, effects, and color, bind anything to your music, and watch it move, bloom, and breathe in time with every beat. It's the lightweight member of the Blozzum family — light on your battery and instantly playable on iPhone and iPad, while still giving you real creative control. HOW IT WORKS Start from a shape. Add a stack of mutation and effects to twist, warp, and stylize it. Finish with a final stage of touch ups. Then make it listen: different audio metrics (RMS, Frame Peak, Kick, Beat, etc.) can drive most any parameter in the paths, mutations, and effects — you decide what reacts to what. Use the mic for live input, or load an audio file and loop through it.
