This was my setup for the performance at the NW Folklife “Chiptune & VJ Showcase” (EMP Sky Church 5-26-12)

Signal flow: TagTool (running on an HP TouchSmart tm2) > V4 Video mixer (for mirror effect) > Korg Entrancer #1 (for “pixel” effect) > Korg Entrancer #2 (for sampling effects) > out to house projector/screen.

Other gear in picture: Midi controller for TagTool, game controller for TagTool, Korg Kaptivator (for live sampling & saving)
