VStudio

["mark francombe" <mark@markfrancombe.com>]

NO Rainer VStudio is NOT my story.. but I am helping in it development. It 
lies on Furthurnoise.org, where I am a guest reviewer and as such am kinda 
a 
bit involved as a user, beta tester and VStudio guru!!! So I have used it 
to 
collaborate live with a few people, played live on Resonance FM in the UK 
and done a few "gigs". Currently we have a residency once a month at The 
Point in the Bronx.

What is it? It simple really,Built in flash you can upload audio loops, 
images, and preprepared Flash movies, and then load them into a series of 
8 
slots or layers, where you can do a few simple things, like sound level, 
pan,(on audio)  transparencey position etc (on image) and that it!!! The 
fun 
is in the fact that there ONLY ONE, so there no saving and anyone can ruin 
your work.

I have really pushed what it can do in terms of of limitations and CPU, 
and 
have made some interesting stuff.... nothing is really synched, so you 
have 
to think jazz or abstract, but Ive also put up a whole track (streamed 
from 
MY webspace with a stub file ulploaded to VStudio) and used it simply as a 
video tool, making visuals for my music (infact Im planning a DVDR release 
soon!!!). I just jam on one machine and record a screen grab from andothe 
machine. (Actually my friends at futhernoise do it for me, we plan saving 
mixes in a future version.)
IN the pipeline are... stand alone versions for home use, saving, loading, 
seperate url for performance window (the interface gets cluttered with 
users 
when it busy)

Anyway ANYONE can give it a go.. you dont have to upload anything, just 
steal other peoples work!!!!!
