To give a very brief overview – Resolume allows live mixing of video (‘VJ’ style). There are many reviews of Resolume around, so I won’t be going into detail on its operation here, but rather focussing on using Resolume as a performance tool for the producer that either uses Resolume alone or with Ableton Live.
#RESOLUME VS REMIXVIDEO INSTALL#
Install the software, and you are presented with the clean interface, with an example project loaded.įigure 1: The Resolume Interface – with demo project loaded Installation is straightforward – login to your account at the Resolume website, click on your licence code and you are provided with a download link. Differences between Mac and PC editions are trivial, and do not affect any aspect of the review. At no time have I used any of the Arena-specific features, so everything here applies to Avenue also.
#RESOLUME VS REMIXVIDEO WINDOWS 10#
For clarity – in this review I have used Arena, running on a PC with Windows 10 Fall Creators Edition. Avenue is suitable for the majority, whilst Arena adds high end features such as Projection Mapping, DMX Control and SMPTE synchronisation. Resolume is now at version 6, and comes in 2 flavours – ‘Arena’ and ‘Avenue’. The team is small and dedicated and it’s the classic story – they were frustrated with a lack of decent VJ software, so set about creating their own. Resolume were founded in 2001 in The Hague, Netherlands. With new Ableton Link support there has never been a better time to investigate… With that in mind, we know a lot of our readers are thinking the foray into video could be a very complex one – but it really isn’t, and Resolume is becoming the go-to application in this area with its simple, powerful interface. Good planning for a live show means bringing visuals into the production process itself, and with Resolume 6 the team have worked hard to streamline the workflow around this. The visual element of performing is becoming increasingly important, particularly amongst those producers who tend to appear live with not much more than a laptop running Ableton Live or Traktor.
