Real-time visuals,
written for stage.
Fluence is a professional VJ and live-visuals studio. Compose shaders, video, and generative scenes; drive them with audio, MIDI, OSC, and keys — live, at 60 frames a second.
assets/hero.pngA complete real-time studio
Every layer of a live visual rig — composition, mixing, mapping, recording — in one tool.
Built for 60fps
OpenGL render pipeline, audio-thread isolation, GPU resource discipline. Stays smooth when the room is full.
Shader-native
GLSL and ISF sources load at runtime. Hot-edit a shader, see the result on stage in milliseconds.
Mappable everything
Bind any control to keyboard, MIDI, or OSC. Capture in two clicks; one input can fan out to many targets.
Audio-reactive
Beat detection, FFT, and loopback capture flow into any uniform or parameter. Visuals follow the room.
Layered composition
Stack clips into layers, blend with familiar modes, group and route. Resolume-style flow, modern internals.
Record & output
Spyder-grade screen capture, multi-output routing, and built-in recording — straight to disk, ready to ship.
Made to perform
Compose like a DAW.
Perform like an instrument.
Layers, slots, columns, and an arrangement timeline you can scrub. Build a set in advance, then trigger it the way you want it played — knobs, pads, keys, or all three at once.
SDF modeling, fractals, and ISF — out of the box.
Built-in raymarched 3D, dynamic lighting, fractal zoom, particle systems, and the entire ISF library. Drop a shader file in, it shows up in the browser. No plugin chain to manage.
One mapping system. Three protocols.
Keyboard, MIDI, OSC — captured the same way, stored the same way. Bind to clip triggers, layer faders, BPM tap, effect parameters. Save it with the project; recall it on the next show.
