American Dj Arkaos Grand VJ 2

GrandVJ 2 is state of the art VJ software for live performers and video artists. Controlled by MIDI, it syncs with the DJ’s output via Pioneer ProDJ Link, TrackDJ (ShowKontrol) or timecode.

This live performance VJ software is easy to master and lets you perform the way you want!

Manipulate, trigger and mix video clips with sound, animated text strings or live cameras in much the same way as mixing music to create a spectacular audiovisual show. GrandVJ live performance software can mix up to 16 layers with a vast library of video effects, transitions and sound driven visual generators.

The A/B crossfading mode with independent preview makes it incredibly flexible to perform live, and the Browser Preview feature lets you preview visuals, effects, transitions and sources before sending them to the output, just like a DJ previews his next track in his headphones.

GrandVJ 2 runs on both PC and Mac and accepts all common video and image formats. Its intuitive interface lets you turn your keyboard into a super controller for zipping through the functions. Need more? GrandVJ's learn mode makes it a breeze to set up any MIDI controller and with support for the network based OSC protocol you can even control GrandVJ with an iPhone or an iPad. Hook it up and start the show!
