- In this tutorial, I’m going to explain how to create three simple techniques using feedback Get Project Files & Components on my Patreon 👉 / okamirufu
Summary
This tutorial explores three feedback techniques in TouchDesigner: infinite mirror effects, motion trails, and simulating decay and dissolve effects. We start with a simple mirror analogy to explain feedback and demonstrate creating dynamic visuals with basic operators. You’ll learn how to duplicate and transform components to create intricate patterns. Feedback is a powerful tool for generating organic and evolving visuals, perfect for live performances and generative art.

Love the retro moments
Thanks! this will be a think in my tuts
amazing videos, thank you! one note though - the background music is quite repetitive, it would be easier to focus on the amazing tutorial with no music or something more ambient :)
got it, man. now that I think about it i should go with something more ambient so the music doesn't distract. Thanks for the tip.
Ciao from Italy, many thanks for your tutorials. This feedback is really explanatory and super comprehensive. Wow. Thanks again.
Ciao, che piacere sapere che hai goduto il tutorial, woo e che bella lingua è l’italiano, una volta ho provato ad imparare ma ho dimenticato la maggior parte (ho usato il traduttore per scriverti questo messaggio), spero di vederti continuare a seguire il canale
I love your style of explaining!
Thank you!, i hope you enjoy the rest of the videos as well ٩(◕‿◕。)۶
Wow i've just found , this tutorial have been just posted 😮 i am lucky to see it very soon... Where are you untill now man??😄
It was great tutorial
Hi Arshi, thanks for your comment, I was just mastering the art of procrastination now i am here to make the best tutorials i can make
Awesome video, subscribed! Just getting into TouchDesigner and these types of videos are super helpful to get a feel for how to set up mappings/routings!
Hey man, this is awesome! I'm so glad to hear that my videos are helping a lot. Hope to see you more active on the channel!
Best tutorial ever!
Thaaaanks!!! and i will do better over time (=^・ェ・^=)
Wow , so theoretical tutorial about feedback .... I wanna learn like this , learning logic of every operator
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. ,i appreciate it man 🎉
Ok it could be possible except with the null operator (¬_¬;)

Love the breakdown!
Thanks! It took quite a bit of effort to edit it, but it was totally worth it.
hey bro! I'm happy to see the quality of ur tutorials getting better & better. I especially like those little artist tips u inserted between the chapters. Nice work
thanks marcell you've been here since day one! yes this little retro momnets was very fun to make
awesome! keep them coming!
thanks!!! 4sure
Thank you
o( ❛ᴗ❛ )o
nice share,may I askIs there any place where I can download a beginner's template?
Hi you can find a lot of stuff on my patreon account
not sure if this is intended the quality is @360p
Maybe you watched to early
yay
Oh now is in fullHD, maybe you watched to early (≧◡≦)
how to do this in AE
Mmm, good question. But now I am completely focused on a real-time approach, which is why I exclusively use touchdesigner
Try the echo function
This will get you a similar 4 second loop of the color changing circle with trail:
Make a new comp (1920x1080), duration of 4 seconds, 60fps
Create a black background by either making a solid (command + y), or making a shape layer with a black rectangle that covers the span of the comp
Create a new shape layer with a circle, and center the circle in comp.
Create some keyframes on the circle’s fill color (so there is a new color every ½ second, for example), and have the final keyframe color at the end frame be the same as the starting color on frame 1 (so it loops)
Add a transform effect and add some keyframes to the scale property. Start at 100%, 1 second 0%, 2 seconds 100%, 3 seconds 0%, 4 seconds 100% (to create a loop)
Add a second transform effect to the circle shape layer, translate circle away from center (200px to the right, for example)
On frame 1 of the comp, create a keyframe on this second rotation property of the transform effect
On last keyframe of comp, create a keyframe that creates one full revolution (1x +0.0 degrees). The circle will now make one full revolution around the center point of the comp in 4 seconds
Add a Gaussian blur effect, uncheck maintain comp edges (not the exact wording, not at my computer). Dial in some blur to soften the edge of the circle (maybe 10-20?)
Add an echo effect. Change the blend mode to maximum, or blend. Change the delay time to somewhere between -.02 and -.05. Number of echoes around 30, and decay between .6 and .9. Will have to play with it.
You could also add a second Gaussian blur effect now to further soften the edges.
Hope that helps, lengthy directions but really not that complicated once you set it up!
By using transform effects on the layer, you still have the ability to use the layer’s native transform properties (position, scale, rotation) freely. You could do the same thing with a precomp, but in the event you want to composite/layer this method ends up being less CPU intensive as it’d be pulling from one instance of the echo FX chain.
