Edirol say that they have a breakthrough product that integrates the flexibility of software with the hands-on ease of hardware. motion dive .tokyo performance package consists of the visual software motion dive .tokyo bundled with the Edirol MD-P1, a dedicated control console that connects via USB. Together, Edirol tell us, this package takes visual performances to the next level using intuitive DJ mixer-like controls such as a crossfader and knobs.
Just like taking two musical tracks and fading them back and forth, scratching or adding effects, the idea is the same with motion dive. You can use the smooth A/B Fader to alternate between channel A and B, scratch the clips rhythmically with the Scratch controls, and use the front-panel knobs to control color-EQ effects and BPM. Select video clips quickly by dragging and dropping them into the A and B output channels, or by using the large dial and Channel buttons on the controller.
With motion dive, the visuals can played and remixed in real time along with the music. The performances can be recorded and played back as one piece of artwork. Motion dive receives MIDI messages, therefore MIDI-compatible instruments can be connected to the controller unit for live video triggering. Images can be automatically generated from note and velocity information input via external MIDI device, such as Roland’s V-Drums. Create performances that synchronize music with images for stunning visual effects.
Motion dive is compatible with Mac and PC, accepts QuickTime movies and most picture formats from digital cameras, as well as AVI and MPEG files, and Macromedia Flash content. To get started right away, motion dive comes with a video library created by top professional VJ artists.
