“See the sound. Hear the visuals.”
The CG-8 is the world’s first instrument that lets you “perform images” in real time.
This leaflet will explain the basic concepts of the CG-8 in just five minutes.
These are pictures (JPEG images) with an effect
(movement) applied.
These are pictures (PNG logos) with an effect
(movement) applied.

The CG-8 can detect peaks in the audio input from its internal mic or the rear
panel LINE IN jacks, and use these peaks to control the image.
Press the [INPUT SELECT] button to select the audio source you’ll use.
Move your finger left/right (the X-axis) or up/down (the Y-axis) on the
XY pad to apply an effect to the video output.
Move your hand above the D Beam sensor to apply an effect to the
video output.

Lights when the input level is excessive
Adjust the input level so that [PEAK] lights briefly
at the loudest sounds.
Turn the [INPUT LEVEL] knob to adjust the input level.
Turn the [PEAK FREQ] knob to specify the range at which the CG-8
will detect peaks.

As an exception, turning the knob all the way to
LOW will detect the power of the sound rather
than a specific frequency.
