great work!

what a big pile of crap ;-)

good to see something beyond a flight deck of buttons for once - well done.

the obvious comparison is reactable, which imho suits the paradigm better with synthesis and visualising the waveform in the patch cords.

and i'm glad you haven't just pipped me to the post of what i'm working on! early days for the actual code, but there is a subversion commit =]

really looking forward to seeing this next week at cafe1001. morishuz.com/electrovision/ev5/ev5.html

Thanks for making a clear and understandable video of this. I was at the Electrovision gig (taking a few photos with Mo' camera), but didn't get a close look at what was going on with the machine itself.

I met the reacTable at Ars Electronica 2008 and found it to be frustratingly non-intuitive; evidently a well-advanced system that has built-in a lot of controls and you need to be aware of what things do in order to use it. The on-stage performance, with several performers, just showed that it is capable of making a lot of noise with cool graphics, but the graphics were better than the noise, which sometimes freaked out and left the audience covering their ears while the performers tried to get it to stop squealing. I rate that as an utter failure in terms of audio. A discreet off-screen reset button (or even mute!) would have been a good idea.

Back to VPlay... is it a descendant of some existing node-based video mixer, or is it all new?

But that obviously doesn't count for the design :)

Nice thing if it´s all in a single, lightweight and transportable tablet.

Nice, like a rectable for Vjs!!
