    I'm kind of wowed by that motion detection video, not necessarily because I've never seen anything like it before, but because, there's not so many steps in the video from the source to the result, and I want to play with that and have fun.

    Will it be possible to extract modulation from video, we can use on audio?

    Is any of the betatesters on a standard gen9 iPad? How does it hold up?

    Video processing ( motion detection + feedback rack)

    I was skeptical before this demonstration, but this looks like an easy and straightforward design. 🤩 It features a solid implementation of video capability in a modular environment, not to mention the possibility of custom MSL import. There is no doubt that this update marks a wonderful new chapter for dRambo and the dRambonauts!

    Got a gen6 and a gen9 iPad here, it totally depends on the complexity of the patch and the number of iterations in a loop etc. but most patches still run well on a gen9 iPad, even on a gen6, simple racks can work quite well.
    In the end it's the screen size that matters, and you can always either:

    • Reduce the projector window size to reduce GPU load
    • Use the built-in downscaling option to reduce the resolution in a fullscreen video.

    A newer iPad probably won't be worlds of improvements, the latest and biggest Macbook Pro (M4max) however makes quite a difference when fullscreen is required. When making screen recordings on the Macbook, the challenge wasn't to show the video but rather to compress the recorded video stream in full resolution and frame rate 😂.

    So, for those who are for some reason so desperate to know something that made me go wow (and to illustrate how I don’t think it actually helps illuminate this discussion at all), one of last things which did so was a video someone had made for some metal band. Someone posted a link to it on this forum. I am absolutely not a fan of AI but this was an AI generated video and, I have to admit, was extraordinary. That made me go wow. And it helps this discussion not at all! (Sorry I can’t remember the details…it’s here on the forum somewhere…lots of morphing imagery, terrifyingly brilliant!)

    To each their own, as they say. The irony of saying these images in the examples provided are overly done then citing an AI generation video as something that wowed you, is palpable, and almost beyond parody.

    I, for one, am still excited to have another tool to create, especially one that isn’t another AI generation in an overly saturated AI world.

    You’re welcome to have the last word, if you’d like. I’m not going to engage any more as it seems like you’re overly negative and consistently combative in a thread that should be positive about a really great feature inside a really amazing app.

    Be well.

    Gosh.

    I never said the images here were overly done.

    Just because I’m not a fan of AI, like yourself, doesn’t mean that I have to be so bigoted as to not admit when something produced with AI is actually good. There are always exceptions which prove a rule.

    I’ve repeatedly said that I happily accepted reports from beta testers that this feature allowed a lot more freedom than I initially feared way, way back in this thread. Check back, it’s true. Then others kept responding to posts I’d made. I consider it polite to respond back if that happens. I’m not trying to be combative and i’m really upset that you think so. I’m very sorry.

    Yo what? This is incredible.

    Here I was waiting patiently for midi feedback implementation and you've gone and added visuals and video processing. In the most accessible modular environment I've ever used.

    Just insane.

    Looks like touch designer is gonna take a back seat for a bit.

    @rs2000 thanks, sounds good.

    I sympathize with the comments about the visual style. But that's what this kind of visualization is about! You can't expect a modular system like this to produce groundbreaking music videos. It's aimed more toward things like live projection. A way to produce attractive visual effects that are synced to the music at a concert.

    What makes me go "wow" isn't the visuals themselves, but the integration with Drambo and the modular system itself. That's something I haven't seen before. And I'm sure, like everything else in Drambo, it can and will be used to create unique, beautiful, experimental visuals that nobody is expecting.

    As for the remark about AI, of course it is easy to be wowed by something new. But once you've seen a bunch of AI videos, the gloss wears off and they start to look the same as well—all that weird morphing and non-euclidean geometry. I'm more interested in stuff like this because it is closely integrated with the creative exercise of the user/artist rather than curated post-generatively.

    I completely agree, the fact that Drambo went in this direction in the first place did make me go wow - I wasn’t expecting it at all.

    I want to make it clear, I’m not a fan of AI, nor am I easily wowed by something new. I’ve been miscast in that respect. The video I referred to was indeed the only one I’ve seen which I did, begrudgingly, think had genuine value.

    I have located the thread with the video. You can all make your own minds up and probably berate me again.

    https://forum.loopypro.com/discussion/63269/ah-i-ve-worked-out-what-ai-is-for

    Listen, everyone here, I’m really sorry, I seem to have ruffled some feathers and that was never my intention. I made a comment based on the videos posted, that’s all. I fear my comments have been interpreted with a ‘tone of voice’ attached which I haven’t actually had in mind when writing them.

    I shall enjoy exploring this new feature when it arrives, although I must admit I feel as though I’m somehow not allowed to following the reactions in this discussion - I feel a bit like I’m now a Drambo outcast.

    @rs2000, sorry if I offended you, you have been enormous help to me in the past with Drambo help which I will be forever grateful. @giku_beepstreet, I am a huge admirer of Drambo so my sincere apologies if my comments have appeared to rain on your parade here - the conversation was done way back for me but then people kept on commenting - sorry.

    I think I’m done with this forum for a while. Best wishes to all.

    One more thing: nothing is hardcoded. Every preset you've seen was created in Drambo, either by using other modules or through live coding.

    @Robin2 You absolutely didn't offend me (welcome to 2025 ;), love!

  • rs2000rs2000

    @Robin2 No worries!
    I didn't feel any offense at all, and my question about what makes you go "wow" was a serious one, because I have no idea what your personal taste is like. Without a hint or an example from elsewhere (like shadertoy.com etc.), I find it hard to suggest anything 😉
    Shadertoy.com has an incredible collection of exceptional shader creations and some of them have served me as my reference to aim at. Sometimes it's doable, sometimes it appears to be close to impossible, but at least I had a clear picture of what to try.

    Cheers!

    This will change the game. Even if you don't program it's so easy to just map and envelope follower or lfo to any parameter that you can make any preset yours.

    I really see VJs using this live, is just bonkers

    I hope we see a lot of presets!

  • wimwim

    That motion video has moved me from "Wow that's gonna be cool." to "Woah! I can't wait for this."

    I'm glad to see it runs in the AU as well. Not surprised that the video size makes a big difference in processing power needed.

    • Is there any "offline" rendering mode that could export a full rez video without hitting CPU limits?
    • Is the end-result shader code revealed anywhere in whole?
  • bleepbleep

    +1 also wondering whether offline rendering in full resolution will be available.

    Perhaps live camera input is possible? That could be popular for the VJ crowd.

    1. Not yet, but it's planned. btw. Visuals don't affect the CPU; they rely almost entirely on the GPU.
    2. No, depending on the patch it may involve a few shaders (random texture rw, feedback buffers etc..), but it's worth considering.

    Curious if this will be IAP? (Which I would happily pay for.)

  • giku_beepstreetgiku_beepstreet

    Yes an IAP, reasonably priced.

    Amazing looking update. Unexpected but very welcome. I reckon this is going to be huge. I’m going to have to get an iPad now though, probably about time…

    Too bad ... I thought the new functions make it necessary ... later I read that this is all GPU magic…

    I’m a jazz musician and in this visual world I can’t really listen to just an audio track anymore ..The motion effects and whatever else is going on there is inevitable…Apps and DAWS really need to not be so audio centric..This is the future ..Drambo is going to be fast passing a lot of major players in audio with this..Inspiting
