Mix emergency should I buy.

I thought this software was a work around for the SL-1 to play video can someone explain to me about it. I mean is it woth buying or what anybody got any examples where they have used it. Thanks for your help in advance.

You can try the demo out. With 1.9 the SL1 is able to run video too. The only thing I like about it was the live video feed feature it offers but apples PiP program fixes that with VSL

yeah I saw the download but didn't want to try it if I didn't have to..Really I'm looking for a reason to try it.. Y would I want to use it?

if u want text of logo/pic overlay

I was also thinking about buy it also Big. My reason is because it records at a higher quality than screenflow apparently.

www.scratchlive.net

And also you get pic and txt overlay also. I think it works with VSL at simultaneously. I'm going to test it out first to see how much more strain it puts on my MBP first.

i bought and use it just to record mixes. you can export to anything you want (proress442HQ)
(#1) you can do a LIVE VIDEO feed noprob with a good quartz file.
i just don't like the lumakey transition but i made a suggestion to change it...he said in a future update.

/me likes it very much. A lot of good features. My favs...:

- easy logo add over
- add text
- automatic, random transitions
- better midi controllability (for me)

ok then I will have to download this, since nik and itchie are using it... It can't be a bad thing. I use screenflow to record do you think it does better recoding that that.

I am quite certain that it does produce better recordings. Screenflow just captures what is being put out on the display, incl. all lags, skips, etc.

ME bascially records what you are doing ... See here what D-Twizzle wrote:



This will produce better results IMHO, incl. the ability to tweak the output format to your needs (w/o the need to go through an intermediate file/format like ScreenFlow+VSL do).

thanks nik39. I do have a few more question do I have to change sreens to do any of this or is it intergrated meaning. I don't have to diffrent programs to run or will it open when I open scartchlive like a plugin, Last how does the logo lay over work? Can it stay on the screen the whole time or what. I will demo but just gota know.. Im on the line about buying it.. I dare not talk about quartz I will save that for when I get it.

this video should help understand how it works a little better www.youtube.com view

how much is mix emergency? i'm thinking about getting it as well.

damn youtube don't work at work......

Ivmez 180 is the cost....

Not sure what you mean. You have start it manually but it will float over the SSL and you can make it "translucent" which is very cool I think.



Yes.

Try the demo. It's for free.

What’s up with Stephen Hawking narrating the ME videos. Nice touch though.

Wait Funky, ... aren't you a PC user?

ME does not work with PC's.

But then... VSL does (almost) not work with PCs either... haha ;)

the me preview screens also have user adjustable size

Nik39 that is so unlike you....Your always the nice one,,, what the hell has happen. Hahah my ass, my PC get down and you know it, they don't make ME for PC if they did I would have it just to show that I can do it.


I see some type of overlay will the demo allow me to record.

DJ VMB hit me up if when you find the time.

You sure must be talking about someone else ;).

That is one of the number reasons to buy it.

But that reason was not big enough for you right? You preferred VSL over ME.

Yes you can read Nik. See, I can actually like a feature of another product and not buy it.

What distinguishes me from others is... I can not only read... but also understand.

I swear.

Seriously Nik STFU. It gets old and you really need to learn to grow up.

No. I won't start this name calling.

You already did with your comments. Like I said, it gets old dealing with your childish comments.

I didnt call anyone any names. You should read again. You were making general statements. I was making general statements. You started "STFU"'ing on me. And that is my last statement about this here.

Let's see from you that either means more personal attack e-mails or you are going to run off to the mods. I'll wait and see which one it is this time.

Just to clarify.. it *is* a different application. So this is sometimes a bit hindering ... that there is no 100% seemless integration (how could it...). But as said.. I rarely switch to ME... I use my midi controller :)


Yes, it can. You just choose a logo, define size, position, transluciency - that's it.

Let's hope VSL offers that natively as well at some point (you can do similar things with QTZ in VSL already).

wow it can midi control qtz composition parameters...thats kinda tight

is it possible to record from either Mix Emergency or Screenflow and capture audio with the picture?

i got the demo of Mix emergency and i want to record a video sl set
i cant get it to record the audio,there's no option for serato in audio/device panel

same with screenflow,if i start my mac fresh and then launch screenflow it gives an audio record option of TTMS57SL-Line 2 (sometimes line 1)
when i launch scratch live that option changes to AppleUSBAudioEngine SeratoTTM.01.00TTMS57SL-Line 2
then when i record an error message comes up 'Microphone Not Found'

if you quit Scratch Live, the audio record option TTMS57SL-Line 2 has now disappeared

?

How should ME know the audio? You have to feed it back into your laptop.

i thought there might be a way to record internally,seeing that screenflow had the ability to detect the rane mixer

Like Nik said you have to run it back to the laptop. I use screen flow to do my mixes and have yet to use ME but either way you need to run an out from the mixer to an in on the laptop......

thanks guys

So ME can be used strictly for recording if you wanted? Just turn it on to record and use vsl for your set? Thats sounds great if you can do that :)

or you can use ME for your sets to... I been using it like crazy... I love it so much more and they up date it more. It also uses less CPU power.

I didn't know it used less CPU.

i am not sure if it does or not but my mac runs at a lower temp with ME

Well my only concern was bringing a midi controller to gigs to control ME since i use the 57. My video convertor and serato take up both my usb ports. I may have to try it though, seems people rave about it ;)

it works with the 57 fader...

yeah, but can you control the effects with the 57 like VSL?

you can? not JUST the crossfader and it shows thru on ME?

I wish some one would do a video on how to use it and all u can do with it.

Does anyone know if Mix Emergency works on Itch or is it only for SSL.
I sometimes have very small gigs and wanted to get the VCI300+FX unit but do not want to lose the ability to play videos.

Mine was a question. Lol.

ME is only for SSL it will not work with Itch. You can use a VCI-300 as a midi controler for me. Now to the TTM57 question, the 57 can only fades and crossfades with ME. The midi on the 57 only works SSL. But like I said it will still only fade and crossfade with ME.

The TTM57 has no Midi. But you are correct, you can only control Serato Software (SSL, VSL) from the TTM57, no other application (incl. ME).

So you can or can not control the video crossfade with the 57 crossfader? ^^these statements confused me lol. All i want to be able to do is crossfade the video link to the crossfader on the 57.

Sure, ME can do that.

will there be any development from ME to utilize mixer funtions (buttons/knobs/etc.) to control effects and other aspects like VSL?

Excellent, thank you :)

Here's a mix i did with ME and the TTM 57 SL!
