Advanced features

Features

Videosync Intro
Intro
Videosync
Main Track Spout/Syphon Out
Videosync can output the Main track's texture to other applications over Spout or Syphon.
ImageImage
Return Tracks Spout/Syphon Out
Videosync can output any Return track's texture to other applications over Syphon.
ImageImage
Blend Modes
When tracks are mixed together into the Main output or when chains are mixed together to form the rack output, they can be mixed in several ways. Which way is chosen depends on the Blend mode setting in the Properties device.
ImageImage
Networked Mode
Allows for running Videosync on a Mac, connecting it to another Mac or Windows PC running Live.
ImageImage
Plugin SDK
The Plugin Software Development Kit (SDK) allows for building your own image effects and generators with an interface in Max For Live (M4L), an engine in GL Shader Language (GLSL), following the Interactive Shader Format (ISF) standard.

Visual instruments

Instruments

Videosync Intro
Intro
Videosync
Tabula
Creates a brightness-to-color table, which is used to map brightness of a sidechain input to color. Incoming MIDI notes define which parts of the table are used for mapping. Each note that falls within the note range`, activates the mapping of a part of the total brightness range.
ImageImage
Simpler
A mimic of Ableton Live’s Simpler instrument. This device allows for easily triggering video content with MIDI notes.
ImageImage
Squares
Generate white squares on the screen using MIDI notes that can follow two different envelopes.
ImageImage
External In
An important routing element that allows you to use video signals from within Live, from other software using Syphon, or from external hardware devices.

Visual effects

Effects

Videosync Intro
Intro
Videosync
Blur
A blur effect with three modes: "Blur / Bloom", "Bokeh" and "Sharpen".
ImageImage
Color MixerManipulates the color and brightness components of an image. Selecting an optional sidechain source will allow you to blend the color and brightness of another track into the texture of the Color Mixer's host track.
ImageImage
Color Swap New in Videosync 2.1Replace colors with other colors or video sources. Transform any color into video sources, create smooth color remapping across entire images, or perform precise selective color replacement.
ImageImage
Color Utility
A simple device that provides control over video brightness, color, and alpha settings.
ImageImage
Colorize
This device allows advanced color operations using Dark, Mid, and Light color controls to create dynamic color gradients based on the intensity of the input.
ImageImage
Crop Map
This device is used for both cropping video and projection mapping. It offers various modes for scaling and cropping, along with options for inversion, wrapping, feathering, and precise corner adjustments.
ImageImage
Displacement
A displacement effect with displacement map input. By default it displaces its own input, but it can also use the output of another track.
ImageImage
Feedback
Copies the previous frame onto the current frame, resulting in an echo effect. While copying, the frame can be scaled horizontally and vertically.
ImageImage
GradientUpdated in Videosync 2.1Create monochromatic and duochromatic gradients with three distinct types: Linear, Radial, and Conical.
ImageImage
ISF Shader
Use any ISF shader with ease and integrate it into your Live Set. Comes with a curated collection of over 200 shaders, including Generators, Filters, and Transitions.
ImageImage
Keyer
A very versatile device with a luminance and chroma keyer. It mimics the classic analog keying setup, allowing to set both the fill and the background images from sidechain tracks.
ImageImage
Lava
Lava is a hybrid between a generator and an effect. Its pattern creation and image manipulation algorithms draw inspiration from Brownian Noise, emulating the variability found in many natural systems, giving an organic quality to the device's output.
ImageImage
Mirror
A basic plugin used to flip and/or mirror the video.
ImageImage
Pixelate
A simple plugin used to downsample the video resolution.
ImageImage
Properties
Contains a collection of settings for tracks or rack chains which are not directly available in the interface of Ableton Live, including Blend Modes.
ImageImage
Status
Does not have any usable controls, but is there to display the connection state, frames per second and maximum frame time. This is especially useful when running Videosync remotely over a network.
ImageImage
Transform
Device for positioning, scaling and rotating video. When scaled down, Wrap can be used to fill the area around the scaled down video.
ImageImage
Video MonitorNew in Videosync 2.1The Video Monitor device makes it possible to view video signals inside any track or chain.
ImageImage
Video RecorderNew in Videosync 2.1Record video from inside any track or chain, or place it on the Main Track to record the entire session. Alternatively, you can select any Spout or Syphon source as input.
ImageImage
Voronoi
Voronoi is a hybrid between a generator and an effect. Based on the Voronoi algorithm it allows both the creation and manipulation of images in a wide range of ways.
ImageImage
Wavvy
A displacement video effect capable of enriching imagery by adding a variety of organically flowing and morphing distortions.
