Ticker..... text creation

[ping141]

Ian,

I've recently dealt with a ton of this for sporting related events. I found that the fastest way to get text in is to build quartz comps and then pass them with syphon into Cat.

However, I like Huge's suggestions.

How do you pass Syphon into Cat did you say?

This article will talk you through some of it. There's a lot you'll have to tweak and play around with. If you're comfortable with quartz it should make sense.

There's also a patch in Max/MSP you can use to do the same thing. It requires system resources though so make sure your patch doesn't get too performance heavy.
