Getting Started with Otomad Helper

To make visuals insanely quickly with Otomad Helper

• You will need a Vegas Pro (13+);

  WARNING

  If you have ANY other editor that you use for remixes, you’re out of luck.

• You will need the Otomad Helper Script;
• You will need FL Studio (or any other DAW, that you use for remixes).

Using Otomad Helper is pretty straightforward from here.
Here’s how to use it.

• You import and use a MIDI file to configure and generate the clips you want. You should use a MIDI which created by yourself and not someone else. It’s discourteous. Don’t create YTPMIDIs or any form of remix you didn’t create.
• You need to have a clip selected in the timeline or media pool in order to generate anything from the MIDI onto Vegas Pro.
  • Alternatively, you can use a clip or source from your computer to be used for generating by the MIDI.
• The Audio and Visual pages will allow you to edit the settings of how the clips are generated, there is a variety of settings, play with them and tweak them to sort your needs for the start of your creation.
• There is also a variety of tools to help work on the most ludicrous of tasks for your projects, making the chore of editing certain clips to applying different effects easier said than done.
