Application Menu (Mac)

The Application menu does not exist on Windows. These items are found in the File menu and Help menu instead.

MIDI Settings

This is the MIDI Map: a table of everything Visibox can be told to do, and the note or knob on your controller that tells it. In Visibox 5 this was a separate window. It is now a category in Settings, and the MIDI Map… menu item opens it here.

Real-Time Control

Most of what Visibox does is on or off. You press a pad and a Clip plays. Real-Time Control is the other half: a knob you turn, a fader you ride, a value that moves while the Clip is on screen. Fade a logo up over eight bars. Ride a blur through the breakdown. Scrub a Clip's playhead by hand.

Song Timeline

A Song Timeline is a list of cues attached to one Song. Each cue says when something should happen and what should happen. Visibox runs the list as the Song plays, so clips switch, the output level rides, and MIDI goes out to your rig without anyone touching the Controller.

Using MIDI

You can run a whole show from the mouse and the computer keyboard. Visibox comes alive when you plug in a MIDI controller instead. Your hands stay on the pads, and a controller with lights tells you what is happening without you looking at a screen.
