Light Replication – TouchDesigner Tutorial 44

In this TouchDesigner tutorial we're looking at a technique that mimics instancing for lights with Replicators, how to style them and how to make them audioreactive. Some notes: This is not instancing and not nearly as fast to process. Also, apparently it's faster to leave the TOP part away and simply stay in the CHOP family for the "instancing" channnels. The expression used on the Light's Color parameter: op('../col').sample(x = parent().digits, y = 0)[0] The expression used on the Light's Dimmer parameter: op('../brightness')[0][parent().digits] I haven't found a good way to make the lights glow properly. I guess the route would be using a Render Pass and feedback. ----- 00:00 Intro / Overview 01:18 Main Setup 05:12 Light Base Setup 06:45 Channel Setup 08:48 Main Technique 17:25 Color 19:35 Movement 20:50 Audio, Scale & Brightness 26:36 Floor 28:20 Recap 30:44 Custom Par 32:06 Outro ----- Special thanks to: 480 Productions, Abigail, Acid Johnny, Adam Scheirman, Ai Soon, Alex Coman, Andrea Civati, Andrei N, Andrew Edman, Annie Yang, Arety Araya, Austin Paxton, Austin Taylor, Bendeform, Berke Yapa, Billy Tegethoff, Bizzy Smith, Bjarl Azerbaijan, Bob Householder, Brianna Laia, Byron Dickey, Cameron , Carolina Morales, Charlie Williams, Chris, Christian , Chung Cho, Corbin Davis, Craig Pickard, Crystal Jow, DJARUM , DaFF aka David SALAUN, Daniel Clarke, Daniel Kass, Danny , David Leroy, Derek Szeto, Diana Derii, Diego Chavez, Digital FUN, Digital Gastronomy, Dita Zanelli, Dmitry Nadein, Dorothée Dinne, Drasko V, Eric Chang, Essidy, Ezra Ranz, Federico Rusconi , Francisco Bucknor, Function Store, Gabriel Pais, Giovanni Iacovella, Greg, Harald Pliessnig, Heavyhearted, Helin Ulas, HoloHolo, Hyeong Gu Kim, Inna Sh, Irfan Brkovic, JEONGMIN PARK, Jason Batcheller, Jay Winder, Jean Clark, Jeanne Pollock, Jeppe Vinum, Jochen, John C, John-Michael Schaub, JohnDoh, Jonathan Tolentino, Jorge Sánchez Alejo, José Agustín Gonzalez Scarpa, Julia Ballmann, Junichiro Deguchi, Kai Erlenbusch, Kelsie Hoffman, Kent McDonald, LaJuné McMillian, Leo Torres, Lloyd Marsden, Lora Shopova, Lotto Andrea Carlotto, Low Rez Lab, Lucas Räthel, Madeline, Make Mistakes, Manny, Marcin Mann, Margarita Govedarska, Mario Paler, Masayuki Azegami, Matt Dakers, Maxalex , Maxwell Crabill, Melanie.lfc, Michael, Michael Tan, Miguel , Mike, Mike Pastore, Milkorva, Milo Hayden, Moon Hung, Morfeo, Nathan Hicks, Nicole Escalante, Nix , Omar Garcia, Paola, Phelan Kane, Péron Yann, R Tyler McLaughlin, RYON RYON, Randell Lamontagne, Rob , Roberto Mucchiut, Russell Mishler, Ryan, Sacha Safretti, Santiago Nahum, Sean Ephram, Sean Leo, Sergey Korneev, Shana Smith, Shimmy, Sky Ainsbury, Steve Casey, SunJeong Hwang, Sungheuk Jung, Sunny Liao, Sylvain Després, Tensnake, Teruhisa , Thomas Rosser, Tinewewo, Tjeerd Paul Jacobs, Tmdjn YhN, TomatoHeadchup, Tosca Teran, Tyler Neyland, Vlad Hurzhii, Yeah, Zeemen Zhou, Zero Alpha Design Co, antithug, archy , bhongbhong, carl runk, cd, claudio leggieri, david robert, dwuu, fxsan, graziano de vecchis, guillaume Bourassa, guojian , hans mortelmans, hsu piebee, hyunkyu ahn, im_pakt , ji jiji, kint, martin houra, martin kern, oshima toshiyuki, seanthefrotographer , tasso treis, technolo-g , vacuum , vitkorlin , yaron erkin, zia, zoen, zufallsgeneriert_, 一真 高田, 威 刘, 岳夫 宇田川, 梓 佐藤, 동훈 이, 욱쓰 유 If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
