ADJ GRAND VJ 2.0-UG, Eight Layer Video Mix VJ Software

This software upgrade to version 2 of American DJ Grand VJ by ArKaos- Eight Layer Video Mix VJ Software is an application designed for live and installed entertainment applications such as accompanying a DJ with visuals at a party or in the club. The upgrade includes the video mapping extension which allows the high-resolution video output of the program to be mapped over physical surfaces within your viewing environment.

This Mac and PC compatible program provides you with a hardware accelerated multi-thread supported eight-layer video mix engine for combining most common image and video formats (with Alpha channel support) including Quicktime, Mpeg 2, Mpeg 4, MKv, Vob, Windows Media, and Flash text and animations using ActionScript3 (AS3). You can combine video layers with 37 transitions with four parameters and fade time control, over 40 effects, automated video generators, and sound driven visual generators including support for a movie's audio through FFMeg (with most formats supported as well as audio through Rewire. The software can receive sound and MIDI from any audio sequencer that is compatible with VST plug-ins. In Mac OS X, the software also supports Quartz Composer .qtz files as sources and effects to enable visual designers and programmer's a greater deal of flexibility and creative freedom when designing a show.

For performance, the program features a customizable dual synth/mixer mode that uses an A/B deck crossfader layout with an independent browser preview window. This setup is similar to the way a DJ mixes two decks with a crossfader while using a cue headphone mix to preview. The software supports generic MIDI controllers with bidirectional communication to enable full tactile MIDI learnable control over mixing controls using your favorite MIDI controller, including an iPhone or iPad. The software supports both multiple cameras as well as multiple screens with soft edging. It is also compatible with Open Sound Control (OSC) protocol for video mapping.
