A video-intensive art car - sounds awesome. What do you think you will employ with the theme Evolution? Are you based in the US or abroad? I looked at both Modul8 and Arkaos when I began looking for software. I liked the improvisation inherent with Arkaos because of its use of keyboard keys (I'm a p...

Dude, I think I saw your set. Very nice! I'm such an ass for not checking these boards before I went to Burning Man. I would have loved to play there. Alas, I spent my time setting up the Playa Flya, http://picasaweb.google.com/plutonomy/BurningMan2008AmericanDream#5242389891900168786 A mobile VJing...

I was at Burning Man as well, wish I had read this post before I went! I also performed with Modul8 at Burning Man. I rigged up a tricycle with car battery, power inverter, mac, projector, and keyboard controller - it was truly a VJ mobile! I had the opportunity to project on Root Society Dome Frida...

I think the subject pretty much sums it up. Reminds me of that feature in Leopard that will allow you to make a web page into a widget. What if you could bring any Mac window into Modul8 and use it as an asset? The possibilities would be very interesting. Maybe in version 3??

Yes, Optoma: http://www.optoma.com/

I got it at Circuit City here in the US because they have a $125 4-year lamp replacement policy. If my lamp fizzles, they will replace it, no questions.

I ended up going with an Optoma EP719. It was a bit pricier, $900, but it has great color, contrast, and resolution. I love seeing my output on a big wall - now I'm finally VJ'n!

Thanks for your advice!

The same thing is happening to me when I both Group A and Group B set to fade. If I set only Group A to fade then the "black out" issue is resolved, but that doesn't help you with the sound issue. Sorry. This only started happening recently. Before when I had both A and B set to fade it wo...

Thanks, Lupin. Good advice. So having a set up with 640x480 clips has nothing to do with projector native resolution unless I want to use the full potential of the projector? A projector that has a native of 800x600 will show 640x480 fine and in full screen? I only ask because I've never used a proj...

Hi guys. I'm new to vjing and visual art presentation. I have set up most of my clips for Modul8 at 640x480. Do I need a projector with the same native resolution, or can I use a 800x600 or 1024-768 projector? I don't have a lot of money but would like something mid-range between $500 and $800. Than...

Just trying to be helpful, not cheeky. I realized after I posted that I could change the modules myself. But good information to know, I think, for anyone creating a module. Anytime you create a new interface it's just common practice to make sure it works on as many devices as possible.

There are a few modules out there that I'd like to use, but my Macbook has a maximum height resolution of 800 pixels. If you are making modules that are larger or whose initial x,y locations are above 800, then you are dismissing certain members of the Modul8 usergroup. Modules I've tried to install...

There's not much documentation about the Workspaces menu and I'm not sure if it's easy to understand these. I do not like that if you move things around and you are in Workspace 1, that those things are automatically saved as is. There should be button or menu item to save workspace locations as : 1...

Hi all. I'm a new user and having a lot of fun getting into the app. One of the things that was really confusing me at first was the way you treat different MIDI mappings. When I began I set prefs to Document for the mapping. I created a nice map in a md8 project but then I wanted to use the same ma...
