time presets to song

stopasking · 5th June 2011, 09:17

yep is a newbie question but I did do a quick search in the forums and found nothing.
My question is, is it possible to somehow program visualization presets to go during specific times, to the rhythm of a song for example?

A quick answer would do. Thanx

All settings regarding presets transitions are under visualisations/configure plug-in/transitions

Other than that, it should be possible to send messages to milkdrop using some sort of script but I don't know how. I remember AidenRigel's milkdrop interface which certainly had this option, but he and his site www.lightmaestro.com seem to have disappeared from the planet.

The third option of course is to control preset changes manually

Hello everyone,
what a pity, that it is not possible to come onto this website www.lightmaestro.com anymore. I wish, this site would be brought back...

I have looked into my YouTube-Playlist "Winamp & Milkdrop", and I want to give You 2 links:
http://www.youtube.com/playlist?p=PL3587CE7236EF59E9
http://www.youtube.com/user/AidenRigel
I had favourited one of his uploads, because it reminds me to the German TV-Serial "Space Night Earth Views" of "Bayern 3" and because I love Milkdrop 2 so much (especially in Full HD)...

I wish all the best for LightMaestro and AidenRigel...

I'm looking for a way to do this aswell. I have trouble with sequential order option with some presets. He goes down the list but then some presets are not shown.... I try rename them to numbers 1,2 and 3 but still no succes. Now I choose the presets I like and do it manually. Then make few videos of the same track and use the best, quite time consuming but the results are better. Also luck involved for me sometime... Here are 2 videos where I got the timing spot on.

You could check my other posts to get a recompiled version of MD. All original features in tact - plus the ability to read a song-specific cue file to trigger texts, sprites, presets, etc...
