NUCLYR is a tempo-synced visual performance tool bundling the X8 library, offering beat-locked video, effects, and camera switching for DJs, VJs, and streamers.
Core Purpose
NUCLYR is a real-time visual performance tool designed to lock video playback, transitions, effects, and camera cuts to your music’s tempo. Its patent-pending playback engine automatically synchronizes visual elements to the beat, creating rhythm-driven experiences. Use it to set the atmosphere in a venue or produce engaging streams.
The interface centers on a media browser with over 9,800 pre-tagged videos across 38 themes and 297 collections. Over 2,000 visuals include built-in beatgrids for precise alignment. Stand-alone operation and integration with DJ software, DAWs, and MIDI hardware make it a flexible centerpiece for visual sets.
Key Capabilities
The X8 Visuals Library adds over 2,000 tempo-based 3D scenes, each containing a beatgrid. All licenses include the Pro Visuals Vault with 300 ready-to-sync visuals. A dedicated logo layer brands your output artistically at a chosen frequency. Unlimited video grids and effects layers allow massive creative stacking.
Five sync methods include assigning parameters to audio frequency bands, looping or one-shot envelopes, auto-pilot sequencing, playlist transition sync, and a MIDI New Beat Tracker that extracts tempo from incoming audio. A notation-based UI supports beat-or-time-based musical adjustments for precise control.
Workflow and Control
Automation Mode filters visuals to a beat-synced playlist for hands-off operation. Performance Mode offers deep layering, triggering, and sequencing via a layer stack. Trigger visuals with hotkeys, MIDI, or StreamDeck, and route output to OBS, Resolume, DAWs, LED panels, or projectors.
Output supports Spout, Syphon, and NDI for direct integration with streaming platforms like Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, and Mixcloud. Unlimited USB and NDI cameras allow tempo-based switching. Create unlimited scenes comprising layers, effects, and cameras with instant live recall.
Practical Applications
VJs can build layered live performances, while DJs can sync visuals to their sets either in stand-alone mode or within existing video workflows. Streamers can enhance broadcasts with automatated visuals, and venues can use Automation Mode for continuous atmosphere. The free bi-monthly visual sets download directly inside NUCLYR.
The X8 collection’s 3D scenes are ideal for beat-matched shows, and the media browser’s tagging system lets you recall themed playlists instantly for specific tracks or events. The intuitive design supports both beginners and seasoned pros, making it a complete solution for immersive shows.
