Resolume Forum

We are a small theatre and have been using Arena + Palffy Zoltan's (fab) Linear OSC Controller to run multi-projector videos in stage shows for a number of years.

In the past I have used the Arena Envelope feature to allow clips to move/scale after triggering - but the current show requires much more complex movement of videos.

I figure there must be someway of:
1. Record via OSC the position/size/opacity etc. of a clip
2. Allow me to edit it/save it somewhere
3. Trigger the replay of the recorded OSC when the column is triggered - so that the movement plays (in much the same way as the envelope parameters trigger and play when the column fires.

I found TWO (promising) and OSCsee (not looking as useful) - but wondered if there is anyone else with a tool/setup that could suggest anything.

Otherwise - it's back to me animating the path in AfterEffects; which is doable - but not very adjustable during the tech get-in and programming...

Hope someone's got some ideas!

I only checked out the OSC see ones and that look very promising but the other one looks even cooler I have to say. I hope they will do it for you.

If you undock the clip panel, you can make it really wide, so you have more room to set the envelope points.
You can also set the points by entering the Phase and position values manually.

If you animate the parameter to clip position, the envelope points will always happen at the same clip time.
