Multiple beat controls

Post by FollowingDark »

I heard a rumour that it may soon be possible to get beats from either multiple audio inputs or from multiple frequencies. Is this feature soon to be added, or in beta? Currently I have to run multiple laptops with FreeStyler, with a universe each, which is a right pain :)

Keep rockin' guys, FreeStyler is just brilliant.

Multiple audio inputs is easy, just use a mixer or create why-cable with some apropriate resistors. a for frequency send a pm to the s2l developer see if he can help

I think you are the same user that sent me the request e-mail yesterday, right? As that e-mail has about the same request.

Its more a FreeStyler request than a S2L request. In fact, my S2L can already be started twice. Just install it in 2 directories and start it from both. They will then both have seperate configurations. But here's the but.
FreeStyler can't be started twice on a single workstation. And if thats changed (or it secretly already can) than S2L has no way of identifying those 2 instances uniquely.
One of the FreeStyler intances will get all the beat triggers then (from the 2 S2L instances) and the other will get nothing at all.

I guess it will be a lot of work to fix this. I doubt if it will ever be fixed as it would be better to have a FreeStyler version that controls multiple universes without having to start 2 of them.
