VIZZable 2

Modular Video Plugins for Ableton Live

What is it?

VIZZable allows you to manipulate live and prerecorded video as part of an Ableton Live set. You can trigger clips, work with live cameras, experiment with effects, and it integrates happily with a broad range of video software using Syphon and Spout. It was created by Robert Jarvis of zeal co.

If you find VIZZable useful and want to shoot me some bucks you can do so here:

Tips

All the plugins have help associated in lives built-in help thingo. Video files should be in quicktime format. A good rule of thumb is to use the photoJPEG codec at 74% for the best compromise between quality and performance.

Thanks
