"playlists of visualations"

tlivingd · 27th April 2002, 04:52

I like to pick various playlists for diffrent forms of music. I'd like to have it so it would randomly or just like a list choose between various visulation lists that can be assigned to a key (although i'm sure your running out of keys on a keyboard). such as some presets are better for Drum and Bass while others are better for ambient techno.
I VJ for a few dj's and thruout the night it gets to become a pain to have to sort thru diffrent types of music espically when one dj plays a range between ambient or harder songs or even parts of the mix.

This should be a pretty workable solution.

Just create different directories within the Plugins/MilkDrop directory. Then, put any presets which suit dance in the "Dance" folder, any for rock in the "Rock" folder, and so on. If you want to use one preset for more than one type of music, then just copy & paste it in there.

Press "L" once you're in MD, then select the appropriate folder.

This way you can only have the presets which you like for that type of music, and you can set whether they run randomly within that folder using the "R" key. Is this what you meant?
