hi there - sorry if this has been asked before but can you use the internal mic on a macbook pro as an audio input in modul8?
prodominantly i want to try and sych up the bpm with music played from a club as ill be right next to the dj's monitors.......i dont usually use bpm much im but just about to start a dubstep night - my visuals are going to be real mininalist and i need to sunch more to the music instead of adjustig speed etc...
....also would like to assign thigs like animation fx and possibly new modules to the audio input,,, if possible....
obviously i havnt tried this before so im not sure if it wil work in a club next to v.loud bass with the quality of the internal mic....

any experience or advice would be greatly appreciated - i want to get on top of this as it may be a good regular gig

sorry again if this has been dealt with before - couldnt find it!

cheers then

Go to your system preferences, click on sound, then Input.

Once you've got sound going into Modul8 you can set pixel fx or animation fx to "sound in" (drop box at the top of each)

Sorry i cant help with modules, not yet anyway.
