Videomancer is a standalone video effects console from LZX Industries. An FPGA processes your video in real time, and every program is played from dedicated front-panel controls, with no laptop and no menu diving. It comes with an expanding library of programs for color, glitch, keying, patterns and feedback.
Hands-On Effects For Any Source
Connect a camera, a media player or any HDMI or analog feed and shape it live. Every control on the panel is mapped in every program, so it works as a performance instrument as much as a processor. Programs include Pop Art Posterize, Technicolor Film, Signal Scramble, Scanimate Warp, Thermal False Color and Retro Color Quantize.
HDMI, Analog & LZX Modular In One Box
HDMI, composite, S-Video, component and LZX 1V RGB inputs and outputs let Videomancer sit between modern and vintage video gear, or connect an LZX modular system to the outside world. Videomancer genlocks to the incoming signal and keeps its resolution and frame rate; it does not scale or convert frame rates.
Patch In MIDI, CV & Audio
MIDI, control voltage, audio or a USB controller can be patched to any of the twelve Parameters for audio-reactive and sequenced visuals.
Open Source & Expandable
Programs are files you copy to a microSD card. LZX publishes an open source SDK and a community program library, and firmware updates install over USB.
