Modul8 is a factory-manufactured, modular building system, made from a selection of materials, which can be recycled. All designs are site- and client specific, thus different and suitable for the specific climate, local conditions, client’s budget, lifestyle, needs and taste. Modul8 is a virtual analog softsynth music synthesizer with dual oscillators, noise, pulse width modulation, low pass resonant filter, two envelope generators and five modulation sources. We designed it for VJ's who use Modul8 in Concerts, Installations, or Live Performance Settings. It's an amazing but light program that quickly helps you create sound responsive visuals from live or pre-recorded audio. There's a couple videos and a guide we've made to help get you started. APE is now free of charge or through donation.

Modul8 is a software for live visual performance developed by GarageCube, a company established in 2005 by Yves Schmid and Boris Edelstein, based in Geneva, Switzerland.[1] Modul8 was started with the intention of providing a tool for VJing in openGL.
History[edit]
The first public release was in 2004, followed by version 2 in 2005.
Features[edit]
While the first version was a stripped down real-time compositing environment, the second version introduced a module system, allowing customization of the software interface. Modul8 also offers support for multiple screen output on the MacPro. The application also has an integrated programming environment that allows to write Python scripts inside the application.[2]
