Super inspiring stuff, I only had to stop really often because of the pace, and there's a lot of steps assumed for beginners like me, sometimes I miss you would explain why you choose to pick one node or the other, but I guess I have to do my basic homework ;) Keep it up!!
One of the best tutorials for any program/app i have ever watched. I could easily follow you and you gave a lot of necessary information in such a short ammount of time. Thanks!
holy moly! absolutely love it! never tried touch designer before, but downloaded it for this tutorial, followed it step by step, and have now got this amazing first patch to just experiment with. beautiful! love it! thanks a lot! :) subbed!
Thank you so much for what you do on this channel! It has inspired me greatly to follow along about once a week and after a couple months I finally feel as though I am grasping the program in a creative sense. I appreciate what you do!
very straightforward and great tutorial! Hope you could take more time to explain the role and meaning of the nodes and settings you've chose but overall a great help!
This video is great! I copied everything you did but for some reason when I connected the blur to the comp (13:00) , the "3d effect" doesn't seem to appear. Strange :(
Hi Bileam! This is my 4th tutorial Im doing with these videos and its amazing! I have one problem, came up to the circle/render part at 9:30 and my circles don't split, its one line. I can't figure out which module is controlling that for the last 2hours, redid the thing twice now :D
@@spenzakwsx4430 Hi, my computer broke about a month ago so I don't have the file, but if I remember correctly, for some reason it was the audio I was feeding it, seems like the circles not separating for me was the "audio filters" didn't filter it very precisely , so the background "boom" in my audio track was percieved as a motion the system needs to track. Either way playing with the first half of the modules on the left (audio>filters>channels part) fixed it for me suddenly. Hope it helps, Ive also learned that for me deleting a module and reinserting it didn't reset the values so fixing stuff was complicated or seemed like nothing happened.
I had this same issue, what fixed it for me was that I had accidentally picked "Same Rate, New Interval" in the first resample instead of "New Rate, New Interval". Instant fix for me, hope this helps!
Bro legit thank you for everything , like honestly for providing such amazing tutorials and leting us also create most epic shit there is in the multiverse, like bro respect
Absolutely love this tutorial - many many thanks! Can anyone explain: When I add the render node, it seems to pick up inputs from the grid node (right over on the left hand side of the network) and doesn't output the circles... Who can help?
I really love your tutorials, super sweet and beginner friendly! One simple question! Why we need to resample these channels again before the parameters finally run into geo?
Thanks for your excellent tutorials! I am wondering can I combine this with Tutorial 11 Topographic Grainy Noise to make the topographic noise change with audio?
In the 2022 version of TD the color mode in the geometry instance 2 have a new parameter and the value spec for alpha doesn't works as in your video (at 11:30), I tried to open the project in the 2021 version and there it's working as itended, maybe there is something to know with the new parameters "Color Pre-Multiply"
When i turn on "instancing" and connect it up, my visualizer just looks like a moving line as if there are way to many circles clumped together. I have tweaked every setting and i cannot find out why mine looks different even after watching the video and doing exactly the same steps. Even when i turn on the noise, in the video i can see all the separate and transparent circles but on mine, its just a blob of lines moving around.. please help i love the final project! :'D
thank you for all these tutorials! learning so much! One q, I don't see any colors when I apply spec to the Instance 2. Is it because I am using the free version of TD? I am also on a mac! any help is appreciated!
Hey , i had a same problem as you, but as I checked I put 'auidiofile out' not a 'audiodevice out' after audiofile in . i hope you sorted out already !
Hello ! just a little question about the first step of the video. Why do you add the two channels of the Audio File In ? What are actually those channel ?
Hi Bileam. Another great tutorial. I'm getting everything to work but the size. For some reason when I update the Geo scale to "size" the circles get so large everything turns white. I tried using an audio filter to limit the size but still the circles are too big. Maybe I need a more minimal audio file. I'll keep trying different ideas. But overall still I'm learning so much from your videos!
@cheetahlion79 to solve for this - adjust the math operator after the rename size operator. On the To Range .2/.2001. It was at 3 which was too high for the song I'm using. Something much lower but larger than .2 will likely work for you.
thanks for this! how can you change the gain of the song? When i play it through TD, my song sounds like its clipped although I know it is mixed well. thanks
I just completed this as my 2nd ever tutorial (I did your 7th as my first ever) Any other TD artists you follow on YT? Will be doing more of your tuts, thanks so much!
The option CHOP Length/DAT Num Rows/SOP Num Points isn't available in the Instancing tab of the Geometry operator on my version of Touchdesigner (which is newly downloaded from the official site). The second option on this tab is also called Instance Count Mode rather than just Instance Count, and I'm unable to reproduce this visualizer. Bileam, or anyone reading this -- any idea what the issue is here? I'd love to be able to make this, it's gorgeous!
Its ok, just use the one u have - "Instance OPs length". Put "Instances" value into the "Default instance OP" and then just Translate X = tx, Translate y = ty, Scale X and Y = size. Works for me
Hey! Thanks a lot for this beautiful tutorial, I really enjoy it but I can't understand or read what you type in at the noise chops at minute 7:57. Could you please explain it again? Thank you :)
Very inspiring. My third round of trying, however, I can't seem to rotate the circles with ty. They just "shake" rather than move at all. Anybody has an idea?
Thank you for posting your tutorials. They are very helpful, and i know how much work they take. However, as some constructive feedback I'd recommend one thing: slow down - especially when adjusting parameters. Even with two monitors, I don't think most beginners can keep up with you. I find myself having to stop/rewind/restart your videos very often - and more than any other person's content on this subject. Very often, you move so quickly that if one is following along, they will completely miss an important step. Speaking from experience as both an tech instructor and content creator. Remember that someone may be watching this and following along in TD - not just watching for technique hints. Give them time to build as you go! Otherwise, the content itself is very good.
Thanks for your honest feedback. I've heard this before and I'm trying to do this in my newer videos :) I'm just learning this too, never been a teacher before..
In my merge1 box at the end, before heading into the instances box, the spec and size lines are not moving around like yours (the yellow and green) .... they simply have 1 spec on the left hand side...any idea what i did wrong?
Thank you so much for the tutorial! and sorry! But..what in your geo-comp? how do you connect it to other components? Im beginner and I don't know how its work
Hi there! Thanks for the tutorial, it was very effective :). I am knew to this software and english isn't my first language so I find it a bit hard to get around. This was actually the first project I have ever done on TouchDesigner and it turned out really good thanks to your tutorial! The only issue I have is saving it as a video, can you please explane to me how to do so? thanks in advance!
Amazing staff - finally somebody with inspiring tutorials (:
Your tutorials are by far my favorite ones out there. Keep up da good work!
Wow, thank you :) Will do!
This is excellent. Your pace is relaxing and the info is well explained. I can build and listen without missing a step. Thank you!
This just literally saved my life for my final exam last minute. Thank you so much. Keep up the amazing work, man.

And what a surprise and pleasure to ear Skee Mask in your exemple aha
excellent excellent choice of music too man, Skee Mask is amazing
dude is freaking amazing to make it work on my computer and see all the particles react to the music i feed in, thank you!
Fantastic tutorial. Thank you. It’s incredible to live in this time where so many creative tools are available.
Ok you've earned full wizard status for this.
very grateful for your contribution to the community. thank you
very straightforward and great tutorial! Hope you could take more time to explain the role and meaning of the nodes and settings you've chose but overall a great help!
Deeply enjoyed this tutorial, thank you so much.
10:40 magic happens. Much thanks for the tutorial!
The result looks very mesmerizing. Thank you!
This is awesome! Really good pace and a killer piece at the end. Looking forward to seeing more!
I really love your clear and structured way of teaching. Thanks so much for this one 🙏😊
Love your Tutorials, and then with a skee mask track. It cant get any better!
bro this is amazing. this is going to be my first project. can't wait! hope to see more!
Thank you very much for your effort. Your works and the way you explain them are most inspiring.
Keep up with it!
Thanks bileam, what an amazing tutorial. Thanks to you I'll be passing all my assignments!
i mean, skee mask is obviously always a great choice!
keep it up, i'm learning a lot!
Thanks!
Great tutorial - love the music and your art.
great stuff! for the las 4 days i'm just sitting here doing these tuts!!!
Wonderful effect! Very clear and nice pace. Amazing results - thanks very much.
Very cool, thank you for the tutorial!
I learned a lot from this! Thank you for putting time into this tut and sharing.
beautiful visualizer! 😍
How do u change the scale at the end time 16:10
Thanks for this tutorial!
This video is great! I copied everything you did but for some reason when I connected the blur to the comp (13:00) , the "3d effect" doesn't seem to appear. Strange :(
I had this same issue, I'm gonna try figuring it out and i'll let you know what caused my issue. I think its just a bug or something
Figured it out, you probably didn't change parameter in Composite (comp1 in the video) > Operation > Add
Wow. So much to find. And so much to learn. Thank you for helping me...
Does anyone know how to turn on wireframe view mode on the grid SOP ? (5:00)
Make the viewer active and press 'w' :)
@@elekktronaut That worked, thank you :)
this is so cool man. Nice choice on the Skee Mask for the tune too =D
the output is really amazing ! thanks alot
best Touch designer Tutorials!
Dankes!
Love u bro. Ur tutorials r amazing
Hello, thanks for the video
Althought im having an issue, when rendering from geo and camera, the whole thing wont show up in render or bg, any help?
really smooth introduction for someone as inexperienced as me, thanks ;)
Great tutorial and respect for using a Skee Mask track
thanks for the tut. I have one problem- WAY too many circles instanced on the lines. Where can I change it? :)

What song?
