Sequencing Analog Video Art with MIDI 📺✨ (LZX Double Vision + Squarp Hermod+)

Описание: Hello my friends and welcome to my greatest creation. Today we are taking things to the next level with the video synth and taking the first steps to MIDI-synchronized analog video art performances.

My very precious ‪@lzxindustries‬ Double Vision has *evolved* into a new life form with a cool new screen setup alongside a brand new ‪@squarpinstruments‬ Hermod+ modular brain to sequence both CV and MIDI around the video rig.

Today's setup starts with the ‪@Polyend‬ Synth for some ambient generative synth tones which is then sent through the audio effects of the ‪@KorgOfficial‬ Kaoss Pad Entrancer. The Hermod+ hosts the Synth and converts the USB MIDI info into CV tracks that are sent to different modules around the Double Vision system, the ‪@NeonCaptain‬ Radiator, and then DIN MIDI to the Entrancer for a completely synced audio/visual hybrid synthesizer.

On the video side of things the LZX Double Vision is the main pattern generator and processor with an HDTV/camcorder setup for video feedback. The signal from the Double Vision is being sent out to the Entrancer for video effects and then routed to the LVS-400 video mixer. Meanwhile, the Radiator is projecting lasers onto a screen which is being recorded by my old Canon XL-1 camcorder and then keyed in over our original pattern on the LVS (I really like the film grain-like effect the LVS creates when keying!). *THEN* its being all sent to a usb capture card to be recorded live as I create.
