About
A workstation for live visuals.
Visualz is built by a working VJ for working VJs. I started because I love music, I love tech, I love the scene, and I love the visuals. My mind has been blown many times — and I wanted to be part of blowing the next generation of festival-goers' minds.
What I make
Visualz is a complete live performance environment that puts generation, modulation, mixing, and output into one engine — no patching between five different apps. Audio reactivity is wired into the renderer itself, not bolted on through OSC. Clips, layers, tracks, and sets are organized the way DJs already think.
Why I built it
I built it because visuals should be more part of the performance than the production. A/V means audio and video — so why is the video half still so hard to do live, in realtime?
The hardware
Visualz pairs with the CVJ-1, the world's first fully integrated touchscreen VJ deck. The deck ships pre-authorized and gig-ready: plug it into the rig, plug the rig into the venue, and play. Or run the software standalone on a laptop — both paths use the same engine and the same set files.
How pricing works
Free to install with watermark. Pro subscription removes it and unlocks AI generation, marketplace publishing, and live output features. Pay-as-you-go tokens cover the streaming and AI-gen costs per use. No artificial gates on creative features — only on the things that actually cost real money to run.
Thanks to everyone who has supported Visualz.
