 Have you ever played a light-synth, done any VJ stuff?

I've seen people play with those toys at night-clubs on their game-controllers and midi-keyboards that are very visually engaging.

You may just be playing records while checking morning email and drinking coffee and not really want to spend more time on an X-Box controller making pretty lights of course.

Not sure I really understand what it means to play a light synth to be honest. Maybe I'll ask the ox over on Fedi.

 I’ve done a little VJing but it was controlling artwork made for the show. I’m cool with the tech end of it or at least I have the software. 

I quite like the lofi vibe as it’s literally just me playing records but then if you take ‘Tiny Desk’ it’s a massive production.

I might scrap the cam on me altogether and decorate the turntable loads. Lean into it.

I do want to incorporate some sound effects and I do have a bunch of MIDI controllers… definitely food for thought.
