Hello all, I have in the past tried sort of the same thing. getting a lighting desk to respond to certain frequencies in the music/room. I borrowed a 31 band graphic EQ and ran the sound through there. this made it possible to adapt to the music being played by the DJ in a very quick way. also it makes it very flexible if the instrument/sound you want the video to respond to changes.
it also give no noticeable latency. have fun, sander On 18 Aug 2010, at 10:43, Pippa Tshabalala wrote: > Great thanks. I'll check it out.
