"The Vortex"

[serge000]

I made a few milk2 versions of the The Vortex, but this one is particularly cool :

Did you design this manually or was it a random mix made by your program?

I designed it manually. It began with three colored rings driven by the volume of bass, midst and treble. Everything else was finetuning until it felt polished.

here is another version : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSzdThg1iW8
I'm loading a specific preset depending on the bass volume (here the pinkish 'X' preset)

2 lines of code:
-if bass > 1.5 then hardcut
-if bass > 2.5 then loadpreset(pink_X)

I did a version loading 2 different presets too (an extra white strobe effect)

-if bass > 1.5 then hardcut
-if bass > 2.5 then loadpreset(pink_X)
-if bass > 5 then loadpreset(white_strobe)

Now imagine adding an effect on the preset depending on the volume, or changing random values/colours ect..., the possibilities are crazy

I've coded a special mode for MilkDrop to load the next preset based on the music level, not time or keypress. (I'll release an updated version of MilkDrop soon!).
I always wanted MilkDrop to change the preset when the music change, I thought it will be hard, but it's actually very simple.
only 1 line of code for this: if bass > 1.5 then hardcut
I've copied in my presets folder just 38 mashup that I've made mostly from "The Vortex" and that's the result!

it's extremely simple but hey that looks great : https://twitter.com/MilkDrop2077/sta...35459440771074

Now I'm writing a few algorithms to change the presets more slowly depending on the music level. I could actually use some of your Perfect beat detection.

Wow! I really like the frantic speed combined with the sharp cuts, the slow blur and the flickering background variation.

"The Vortex" + Zylot's shader

I've been enjoying this for a bit. Just a really simple remix by just adding a shader by Zylot, but I think it's visualizations are too cool not to share.

... you can also use the Milkdrop shader with the MusicBee player:

I love it, LamersAss! Already placed in my hall of fame, preset folder. Of course what would a great Milkdrop preset be without a remix

[MarkRH]

Works will on my system. Thanks!

I LOVE IT!!! Keep up the great job!

... a tweak for low FPS, so the effects render the same as with high FPS:
