Hello, IÂ´m from spain and my english isnÂ´t very good. (sorry) IÂ´m new at vj-ing and iÂ´d like to know if anybody knows how can I get the beat synchronization between audio and video. My video mixer is a Panasonic MX-50 and I donÂ´t know if this device can synchonize the beat betwenn audio and video.

unfortunatley no it can't unless you want to move the t-bar back and forward in time to the beat!

use resolume and play your videos like an instrument!

beat matching never works automatically, you either use a mixer with a tap, where you switch between 2 sources in time or you go the full hog and sync everything to midi clock or timecode, unfortunately resolume wont do this.

Its just a case of learning to play and trigger in time with resolume. Then use the mixer to switch between with the mx50 tap.

"switch between the sources" rather

Suggestion:

TS-AudioToMIDI 2.01

http://www.tallstick.com

This little app has a great equalizer, noise gate and threshold, so you can config it to recognize the bass kick: next step to send the midi-out signal, reprocess it for the event you choose, et voila. You have your sound to resolume processor.

Haven't had time to try it yet (for me this issue is not that important) but response times look very promissing.
