I've finally added the Android remote control app to the Blaize 3 repository! Check out the follow-up video (and its description) for details. th-cam.com/video/TjnYWlusAS8/w-d-xo.html
@outofblue Hi and thanks for your interest! The animations are physically constrained to the display space of the projector, so I programmed most of the visuals to stay inside that space. Some of them look cool even though they exit the screen, for example the 'endless large plane slider' animation. Cheers, Oliver
Hey everyone, I've found the time to bundle up the software and provide a free download - check out my new video for details :) th-cam.com/video/TjnYWlusAS8/w-d-xo.html
More modern projectors usually have a wider field of view and are brighter, but I'm actually impressed by how nice even my ~18 year old projector looks with some fog and Blaize. Ergo: I'd recommend using whatever you have available. Tip: Cranking up contrast + saturation in the projector's settings enhances the effects even further.
Hey, wirklich sehr cooles Video! Gibt es irgendwie eine Möglichkeit mit Blaize 3, oder eine ähnliche Software, um die Lichteffekte synchronisiert mit laufender Musik wiederzugeben? Ein Kumpel und ich wollen das für eine Geburtstagsfeier ausprobieren
Hi, danke, freut mich 😊 Ja, ich hab da ein kleines Feature dafür eingebaut. Schau mal in dieses (th-cam.com/video/TjnYWlusAS8/w-d-xo.html) Video bei 05min 41sek rein, da gehts konkret um BPM-Synchronisation. Frohes Geburtstagsfeiern!
@@BodgedButWorksvielen Dank! Erkennt die Software dementsprechend die BPM automatisch wenn Musik abgespielt wird, oder muss das dann manuell eingestellt werden, je nachdem was gerade gespielt wird?
I use that kind of software also, I only need the code to let this software work. Must I geven money for the code? Tomorrow I have a party I like to use this.
Yes, on the second lower page. Click on the "BPM" button to toggle the auto mode. You can additionally set the speed of your song and hit "Nudge +/-" to get your lightshow in sync with the current song. Have fun!
Are you holding the CTRL key while using the arrow keys? Did you set your secondary display (projector) as a separate screen to the left of your PC/laptop screen?
Hi, here's the link to a follow-up video with the download link and a usage Tutorial for Blaize 3: th-cam.com/video/TjnYWlusAS8/w-d-xo.html I assume you mean the track starting at 04:17? That's a song I made called Airwalk, send me your email address and I can drop you a download link ;)
You only have to install something (Processing) if you want to build Blaize from source code. Otherwise, you should be able to download and run the .exe directly.
The effects will probably look a bit sharper with 1080p, but a lower resolution projector should still produce awesome results. Output angle and contrast are more important than resolution for Blaize. Have fun!
Hi, I assume you mean on the projector. It's fairly old and has a surprisingly low resolution, probably below 1280x720, but a good contrast ratio, ergo the light beams are still nice and crisp. It helps to set the contrast/color/saturation settings on the projector to max and (if necessary) lower the brightness so that the dark parts are...darker.
Hey buddy can you just send us a link to it already made a preset so we can play on our projector and have it working for us instead of trying to mess up with software sometimes you just need something to mainly work and you don't looking for the easiest way to do it send us the appreciate that you already called your screen so we can just full screen it on a video and have it working
Nice to see that you're excited about the software 😊 And thanks for the feedback. I'll see if I can upload it in a usable format somehow. @Everyone what operating system are you using?
@@BodgedButWorksHi, is the software useable still ? It seems a little complex with all the downloads, Im using MAC, any advice or pointers would be appreciated , Love your work , cheers.
@@silverboots2934 Hi, sure, Blaize 3 should be fully usable. Take a look at the explanatory video: th-cam.com/video/TjnYWlusAS8/w-d-xo.html There's a link to the download page in the description, you just have to select the version for your system type et voilà 😉 Have fun! Thanks for the kind words 😊
My understanding is that there two different component in this: Fog generate the pattern inside the light but the changing animation is via the computer software so we can have those animation without a fog correct? But does this software read and connect to any projector?
I don't think it will, as long as you use the correct fog fluid for your machine and don't generate waaay too much fog. I haven't noticed any fluid residue on any projectors I've used, or a film on the lens.
Glad to hear that 😊 I've made another video where I explain how you can download Blaize 3 for free and how to use it: th-cam.com/video/TjnYWlusAS8/w-d-xo.html

Servus,
da hab ich hier was dazu beschrieben: github.com/bodgedbutworks/Blaize_V3#android-remote-control-app

Cool stuff! What about the outlines, do any of the animations “leave the screen” at all?
I’d be interested in your piece of software 👌🏻

What type of projector would you recommend for the best results? Like is a laser projector better than a normal bulb projector for this?

theres already a bunch of light effect videos right here on youtube, just run them to your projector and your golden
It would be amazing to have this software
Very very nice!!
I was wondering if insn't interesting tô have the pattern videos directly on TH-cam!
Interesting idea!
Although they would have to be synchronized to a certain BPM 🤔
I'll give it some thought 😉

@@n.kl_1710 Hi,
man kann die BPM nur manuell setzen. Eine automatische Erkennung ist nicht so einfach und daher nicht implementiert.
Would love to have this software!! Please let me know how I can get it.
Is it possible to use artnet or sacn to control the software? Or any other way to controll it from a lighting console like magicq or ma?
Not yet, no. Another user experimented with adding an OSC input though: github.com/tylerstraub/Blaize_V3_PWFB
3:35 Song name? 😅

is there a site that's similar in case I can't install the software due to Admin password problems?
You only have to install something (Processing) if you want to build Blaize from source code. Otherwise, you should be able to download and run the .exe directly.
I want to buy a cheap beamer to try this out, is 360p-480p enough to make this work well? Or do I need 720p-1080p for it to look pretty?
The effects will probably look a bit sharper with 1080p, but a lower resolution projector should still produce awesome results. Output angle and contrast are more important than resolution for Blaize.
Have fun!
@@BodgedButWorks thank you very much
What graphics resolution did you set for the show,m8? Just curious..
Hi,
I assume you mean on the projector. It's fairly old and has a surprisingly low resolution, probably below 1280x720, but a good contrast ratio, ergo the light beams are still nice and crisp.

What’s the name of this projector I can’t find it!!!
I don't know the model number, it's a rather old projector. Any modern entertainment projector should work just fine.
@@BodgedButWorks what if I want to buy it?
