German software developer, Syncronorm, presents a new update for its multimedia show design and visualisation software, Depence, which was engineered with a heavy focus on virtual live productions. To compensate for missing live events, Depence 2.2 comes with a powerful rendering engine, as well as efficient and easy to learn features to translate such events into the digital world. Depence is a modular built software, which pre-programs any kind of multimedia show in a realistic 3D environment. The rendering engine of Depence creates realistic shows of any kind, which can contain elements such as lighting, laser, special effects, water and fire effects, all in a detailed virtual world. Depence also allows the user to create all forms of stages imaginable, integrated in a naturalistic looking scene. Depence 2.2 comes with an all-new Mass Crowd Tool, which quickly fills a venue with a fully animated partying crowd. This digital crowd even has illuminated wrist bands, which can be virtually mapped with a video to bring it to life. The new depth of field feature, as well as
the chromatic distortion effect guarantees a real-life like camera experience and can be used in combination with the already implemented camera keyframe features or DMX camera control. With Depence 2.2, Syncronorm now also offers NDI recording, a free international standard network protocol, and a feature which can be used to record an incoming NDI video signal together with DMX into a multimedia track. With the implementation of the support for various 3D tracking systems for virtual cameras such as PosiStageNet or SPNet Syncronorm also guarantees an effective camera workflow for any kind of virtual production or XR studio. Virtual camera tracking can help complex choreographies in fully digital environments. Together with many small additional software improvements and new support for virtual fixtures such as the Minuit Une IVL series, Depence 2.2 also fully supports RDM over the ArtNET 4 protocol to guarantee a stable and fast connection to any multimedia installation using this protocol. www.syncronorm.com
