What else would be part of the basic set ? some filters ? autorotate ? audio in ? ...
. hmm, nope. not me
. i use an Ohm36 + four layers of video - i use the left sliders for opacity, the bottom buttons for layer select, upper knobs and buttons to control various parameters (usually via a module)
. i use the top 6x4 buttons (of the 6x6 grid) for bank and clip selection on the currently active layer.
. i use the bottom 2x6 buttons to jump to random positions on the video in layer 2 (usually a silhouette of a dancer generated in poser) - i use the bottom a/b slider to control the speed and the button to the right of the a/b slider to reverse direction of the clip
. i use the right four sliders/knobs/buttons to control other parameters in a module, like fx, spir0, etc
. i also have a korg nanoKey connected to a module that will layer effects based on the order the key are pressed - 1 octave dedicated to layer2, 5 keys to layer3 and 7 keys to layer4 - black keys toggle on/off color, scale, rotate parameters.
. so, it varies.
