LA-based artist Alex Pelly has been working with live video for over a decade, and is now well-known for her work with video synthesis. From her work doing live visuals for musicians and other performers to her monthly Dublab show Pellyvision, she has a proven track record of producing intricate, captivating realtime imagery.
In this video workshop, Pelly walks us through the basics of analog video synthesis, from thoughts about planning a modular video synth system to the functions of individual modules. She covers modules by LZX Industries and Erogenous Tones extensively, showing how they can easily become the core of a video-oriented modular system. And by providing an extended tour of her personal system and a detailed patch walkthrough, she demonstrates some tactics for harnessing feedback, audio reactivity, and hands-on control to create colorful layers of video that dynamically evolve along with music.

Mind blown. Just when I think I understand this whole synth adventure, something like this happens! Holy cow, she is cool!

@boilingsky 4 года назад

Welp, just bought a couple more things. Every time Pellyvision airs, it costs me money!

@AquaStarDolphin 4 года назад

Amazing! As a digital VJ, analog video synthesis is fascinating!

@electricarchaic 4 года назад

She’s my new hero :) I’ve been dying to get an Edirol V4!

Alex i have been waiting on my chromagnon for 3 years now. i look forward to the time when i can start my journey down the video synth rabbit hole. i used to watch this as a kid in the early 1970s and after anAS degree in film and video and gathering gear i am more then ready to start.

Great Workshop! Thank you Alex.

@ageshero 3 года назад

Visual tutorials are greatly appriciated

@doctorwize 4 года назад

Very nice. Gave me lots of info on how to use my modules in a relatively short video segment. Thanks.

@politesociety 4 года назад

Thank you. The bones of this setup is pretty close to what I'm using. I have vidiot + structure + fluxus duo in a feedback loop. I would love to drive deeper into the lzx stuff at some point, and this definitely helped me understand the concepts of those modules quite quickly. Thanks again!

Far out! Inspires so many ideas and looks amazing.

Great walkthrough!

What the eff I had no idea this existed! How incredible and fascinating hahah

@GuitarsAndSynths 4 года назад

Very cool! Love the lesson on generating video and audio from a modular system. I can see the potential for live shows to use this after Covid ends to add spice to a session.

Why would you state that you can’t patch into STRUCTURE? It has LZX patch inputs on the top left.

@erwintuijl6342 3 года назад

Great video! I'm waiting for my preordered LZX Chromagnon to get started with this stuff. Can I ask... what's the little screen on the right? That looks really handy!

@pellyvision 3 года назад

It's actually a screen for a car backup cam - you can find them cheap online.

@vprice509 4 года назад

I would love to get a CNN module, but for now my budget only allows for a C-SPAN.

@caesarblanko1399 Год назад

thanks, so this stuff you plugin, the hardware, what is it called? its like circuitbending on hardware without safety risk for the machine?

Who knows the title of the audio track?

@pellyvision 3 года назад

Not sure the title but it's by Baseck

@chent 4 года назад

That guy who have the huge youtube chanel "Techmoan" was looking for a video synth.

@SS-qg9jk 2 года назад

How can I learn to do this stuff? I have 0 zeRo idea what are these devices. :]

@RileyGein 3 года назад

As someone who is interested in getting started with this to try it out, which modules/gear would you recommend I get? Should I save up and just get Chromagnon or should I try finding a used VIDIOT? What would you recommend as a minimalist beginner setup in terms of modules?

@pellyvision 3 года назад

A Vidiot is a great place to start if you can get your hands on one!

@TURBONERD Год назад

Okay, any way to do this without $6000 in gear though?

@john-michaelveach2083 4 года назад

Can I ask what you are using for the video capture?

@PerfectCircuit 4 года назад

The video capture setup was a bit complicated here, the analog video is being converted to HDMI with a Blackmagic Design box and then recorded with a Roland video mixer. If you were just trying to record the video from one of these synths you could use a more simple setup though, some video mixers that connect to your computer have analog inputs, there are also capture devices that are more affordable than mixers designed fro streaming.

This is my favorite thing right now....video eurorack may be my wallet's final frontier

@consciouscoma85 2 года назад

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@hiding_my_name 3 года назад

My first instinct was to jump here in the comments and ask, what is making this.... but I'm watching the video.... Im sure it will tell me.

I love the idea of modular video synthesis but none of what I've seen looks that interesting. I'm guessing we're at the early stages of something that will continue to develop.

I love video synthesis, but everything she is shouting out is so insanely expensive. Those core units are all like $800, and that's only one part of all this. A full setup is exorbitantly expensive. There are much cheaper ways to get a really nice setup.

@RileyGein 4 года назад

Please list some, I’m super interested

@electricarchaic 4 года назад

Well VHS tapes, VCR, CRT tv, and a camcorder just like she said in the beginning are a less expensive way to get started. You’ll need some way to mix the video, I’ll be doing a video on using cheap projectors as a video mixer soon.

@cheetahlion79 4 года назад

I can attest. Video modules are expensive. But if that’s your thing, then it becomes the financial priority. My car sucks. Haha

@cheetahlion79 4 года назад

Riley Gein - with a bit of DIY you can go super cheap with a Recur. You can also buy some prebuilt LZX Cadet modules on Reverb. Or DIY them yourself. For Glitch video equip look up Tachyons+ . Or you can go the software route.
