Sync Resolume, GrandMA, and CDJs with Showkontrol | Timecode Visuals Tutorial

What did you learn from this video? What questions do you have?

Can I use CDJ3000s and A9 with my files analyzed for a light show WITHOUT DJ’ing live with a computer? I hear Rekordbox analyzes the phrase and light show and saves that metadata in the track file. I’m wondering if the lightshow can thus be run without a laptop? Perhaps maybe just an iPad app while I DJ using an app? I hate Djing with a laptop? Please help!

Oh my word, this is EXACTLY what I was hoping to find!

Lee's the reason I got into light design and designing/building my own fixtures.

nice content!!!

Please how can you control your led screen on your lighting console?

that's a sick studio!

Wanted to get back to this, thanks so much Sean! Your videos got me up to speed when I started with this and I've now successfully ran many timecoded VJ shows in different countries touring with an artist. Wouldn't have known where to start without your knowledge!

I already have the issue that I have to get it right first, I have to connect MA2 with ShowKontrol. Which option do you recommend here OSC, Art-Net, MIDI, ...???

Great video!
Can you make a tutorial how you do it with Ableton Link and Chamsys with Showkontorl?
In church we use Ableton and a Chamsys MagicQ50 console and we want to run the speed of the fx at point with the BPM from Ableton. If you can do this, this would be very nice. And maybee also with the Lasersystem Showeditor from Laserworld

you legends! just getting into this stuff. thank you

Does the switch have to be unmanaged? Or will a managed switch work if everything is given correct network settings?

Guys, how do you switch layers on demo presentation? Dj plays 2 tracks and how to change timecode on output?

Amazing. i want to learn all this.. thanks for the lesson!!

Dear Sean Bowes i appreciate your hard work to do all that to help us.. but how could i understanding it fully, because i know about resolum only but i can't program the lighting and dj because i need to do exactly like what you doing on this video without ma2 console i have just laptop so i need to do dj by software and everything as much as I can by software

Thank you 🙏🏼

just woaw ,

Thank you Sean, you're a national treasure

Will you go over the Denon ecosystem or, more importantly, the staggeringly powerful Touchdesigner workflow?

Will you have a tutorial on how to properly connect a windows laptop with resolume and a MacBook running Showkontrol? I’d love to understand how to properly get these to communicate as that is my first issue here. Not sure if this makes a difference, but I’m using the virtual cdjs for testing and wonder if that setup is different then actually plugging into cdjs

Great content Sean, you would love OSC See for Timecode Programming with Resolume, it removes the need of Linear editing in Davinci, Premiere or After Effects. Hope you like it. It uses the composing capabilities engine of Resolume with the Linear control of LTC.

Hi! Really good video! Thanks for the knowledge! Can i ask what happens when a song is playing with the timecode but the dj starts transitioning to the next song with another timecode? How does the timecode switch betwwen the two songs and when? Thank You!

Would love to see full length tutorial bypassing ShowKontrol and using Resolume’s built in TC!

Hi Sean, thank you for this video, it helps a lot ! I have a question : Is it possible to simulate a audio in ? I mean, if i only have a laptop/computer, how can i train bpm synch etc without being pluged on a DJ desk ?

Sickk thiss is cooll and so many help around the world with these thanks a lot

Seems that newest software GrandMa3 on PC has now midi Timecode in . So the Timeline in MA3 is newer. then MA2

Special price showcontrol club (own it) was only on Black Friday 2019. But not on later years.

son unos genios..

Hii ni Hatari sana

Man this video is just incredible! Top tier information and great production value. Got me all up to speed to start working on my first timecoded show

could something like this be done in serato?

Can Onyx replace Grand MA?

Heya! Thanks for this video. I've been trying to install showkontrol on my mac Version Sonoma 14.1 and unfortunately it won't run as the program runs in 32 bit. Does anyone have this issue too? How can I make it run? Thank you!

Incredible content Sean! Looking forward to more of these! 💯🙏🏻

Perfect format no extra talking, high quality. Thank you!

do you know how assign bpm to a master fader bpm on ma3???

THANKS FOR THIS GUYS (L)

Great video!!! Thanks!!!

Sick
Thanks

Please add music to your future videos, great content!

Great video! If you'll make more lighting centric videos i will definitely watch.

Incredible work man!! The quality of this tutorial is off the charts.

This is the video that I now send to all my festival tech friends who need to learn how to setup and test show kontrol before guest acts arrive.

You are absolutely killing it man!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

which version of showkontrol did you use? I cant seem to understand the difference between club and live

Bro your video are full of great info!!!! Thank you

very good 💌💌💌💌💌

Yet another great video Sean. This is literally the only video explaining this type of production work! I am still confused on the types of cables and what ports are needed to connect the audio interface to the Resolume laptop and Showkontrol laptop. Can you please shed some light on this.

Would also love to see an in depth video of how you make the clips using Adobe Premiere! I'm having troubles adding strobes and effects to Premiere.

Can’t imagine how many people this will help great work!

can this be used with timecode sync that denon DJ has partnered with
