Join John Derry for an in-depth discussion in this video Controlling brushes with Audio Expression, part of Painter 2016 Essential Training.
- A new feature, found throughout…Painter's Brush controls is Audio Expression.…This control enables you to link sound to brush control.…For example, audio from your computer's microphone…or streaming music can interactively modify brush behavior.…Let's have a look,…or perhaps a listen to this new feature.…So, I'm going to show you a brush…and it's in the Audio Expression panel.…And I actually created this.…So I've played with these and I keep saying it…you will want to play with all of these.…

So those two dimensions of this Brush…
