The Colorizer is a staple of early analog video art, as it allowed the artist to take a monochromatic
image and map its grayscale regions into psychedelic rainbows of red, green and blue. Vidiot’s
Colorizer is deceptively powerful, due to the high gain on its input channels. This functionality allows
soft key processing right at the inputs, allowing the artist a great degree of control over separating and
blending the different color bands.

The Colorizer produces beautiful analog gradients with just a single source
(selected by the modulation switch) but don’t forget to try patching
outputs from the Pattern Generator directly to the inputs of the Colorizer
to override the preset modulation source and get more complex
geometries at the output.
