Features and Highlights

Live Video Mixing
Resolume puts you in charge. You can play your videos when you want, how you want. Forwards, backwards, scratch and adjust tempo to the beat. Mix and match your visuals quickly and easily and play Resolume like an instrument.

Intuitive Interface
Whatever your style is, Resolume offers you an easy interface to rock it. Use as little or as many videos and effects as you like. The only limit is your computer's raw power and imagination.

From Your Local Club to Main Stage
You can play on any amount of screens. From a simple screen behind the DJ in your local club to the main stage at Ultra. As long as your computer can recognize it as an output, Resolume will let you use it.

Audio Visual Playback
Resolume plays both audio and video files. Animate pixels and drop beats, combine any video file with any audio file.

Audio Visual Effects
Resolume has both audio effects and video effects. Use them separately or combine them to create exciting new audiovisual effects.

Audio Analysis
Make clips and effects dance to the beat. Resolume can analyze the audio to make any parameter bounce to the music.

Mapping with Arena
Project video on any type of surface. Complex geometrical structures or whole buildings. Resolume does all the hard work, so you can concentrate on the important part: being creative.

Blend Projectors with Arena
With edge blending, you can seamlessly project one beautiful widescreen image with two or more projectors. It can even wrap around for a full 360-degree experience.

Project on Cars, Buildings or Pumpkins
With Arena, you can take on any size mapping project. From projecting on DJ booths to cars, buildings and LED mappings on giant stages like Ultra.

LED There Be Light
Think outside the screen and colour the lights too! With Resolume Arena you can send out colours to DMX fixtures and the lights will be in sync with your visuals.

Live Composite & Effects
Adjust the scale and position of your clips to suit your needs. Apply effects to drastically change the look of your video. Everything runs on the video card so you get the fastest performance and best image quality possible.

Real-Time Rendering
Apply effects, blend, mix, cut and edit, everything happens on the spot.

Audio & Visual Plugins
All visual effects in Resolume are plugins and you can easily add more effects by download 3rd party plugins. You can even program your own using OpenGL. On the audio side, you can use VST plugins to play your favourite effects.

Control from a Lighting Desk
You can control Arena from a lighting desk using DMX. So you can operate the lights and video with the touch of a fader.

Note: Watermark on output video in demo version.

What's new in this version:

Transform Widget:
- In Resolume 7.21, we're introducing the transform widget for Arena and Avenue. You can now move, scale, and rotate your content directly in the preview monitor! Additional tools like mirroring, center X/Y, and subdividing your footage can be accessed by right-clicking the widget. This widget allows you to transform either the composition, layer, group, or clip depending on your selection. No more fiddling with a bunch of sliders; just point and click to place your content where you want it.

New Monitor & Video Router Inputs:
- We have removed the option to show a monitor on the Composition, Group, Layer, and Clip Panel because it was buggy and not used by many people (we think/hope). However, we have replaced it with something better; now you can configure any monitor to show the Selected Group, Layer, or Clip. This way, it’s more flexible, and you can place the monitor for the selected item anywhere you like. The Video Router now also has the option to pipe in the Selected Group, Layer, or Clip. We have yet to come up with a good use case for this, but we’re sure some of you will find it useful.

Input Parameter Grouping:
- With Wire 7.21, you can now place your parameters in groups on the Dashboard panel. Nice and cozy. Groups will also show as foldable sections in Resolume Arena and Avenue. Patches with a lot of parameters will greatly benefit from the use of groups as you can now categorize them as you see fit.
- Another feature to speed up patching in your big spaghetti patches! You can now drop a cord onto an existing connection to replace (or add to) it. When working in event-flow, you can hold down the ALT key while doing so to combine the cords.

5 New Nodes:
- Wire gets 5 new nodes with this update: Perlin, Fract, Noise Generator, Collapse Triggers, and Anchor Point. The Perlin Node allows you to run any float type through a Perlin Noise algorithm. The Fract Node returns the fractional part of a floating point number. The Noise Generator provides you with a constant stream of random values. The Collapse Triggers Node allows you to collapse multiple triggers that happen on the same frame into one. The Anchor Point Node allows you to get the center, top-left, bottom-right, etc to set the anchor point of the Transform node so it will then rotate around that point.

REST API Updates:
- Our REST API is used more and more to control Arena & Avenue. So we have fixed a few bugs, corrected the documentation, and as requested by our loyal API warriors, you can now clear clips and groups through the Resolume REST API.

Avenue & Arena 7.21.3 Hot Fix List:
- Extremely large composition and shortcut preset take forever to load on windows
- Persistant clips not triggerable after reopening composition in 7.21
- Overlapping persistent clip thumbnails not workingWire 7.21.3 Hot Fix List
- Shape renderer with transform scale = 0 renders full solid
