Been busy, mostly with the guts, but new animations and features too. Much slicker inside, done a lot of trimming, optimising and adding customisability. I’ve built my own custom app for the projection mapping and controlling the surfaces, lost some midi control for now, but that’s going back in. ME now outputs as normal, so I can intergate this with a full audio visual set with ME as the output, prob controlling even more QC compositions.

Support for other software almost done.

Bit of a rough and ready video, need it for a demo, don’t expect any nice mixing or sound in this one

Projection Mapped DJ System Update

Just got a standalone app working, w00t!  Performance is as for the QC app, so all those little changes I’ve been working on paid off when just running SLL and my DJ mapper. 

Linking to Mix Emergency is a little slower, I think because I now have 3 apps running, however, linking is done via an invisible overlay, meaning that ME can play it’s regular videos as well.  So a 2 external screen system should (in theory) be able to do the Projection Mapped decks, as well as full video output, result!

However my laptop is struggling at this stage, SL slows it’s screen updates under loads, so when ME is running as well as my app, it’s just a little to much for it….  No video yet.

Been messing around more with projection mapping.  This comes from an idea I’ve had for a while on how Serato Scratch Live could display more information on the vinyl.  You used to be able to tell a few things from looking at the grooves of a vinyl record, from roughly how long the track had left, and being able to identify specific sections on the track. I initialy thought about using a rotating wave form, but instead went straight for the SSL deck infos which give out loads of info.

Having got the track info on there, I started wondering how I could map some of the other useful features in SSL, maybe get a complete interface on the decks and mixer and get the laptop out of sight altogether.  The library browsing still presents a problem, I don’t think my beamer has the resolution to properly display it in a mapped area.
