I jsut did a search for Lava lamp VST... nothing came up. Found a couple USB ones but there should be a VST one. Imagine having it docked in the multidock!!!

is there maybe a LAVA trial or demo version to download?
I tried this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strobe_light but I find it clutters up my mixes a little bit. Especially when mixing ballads...

Lava Lamp-in' here too... but still I do miss my old Telly Savalas (as Kojack) gnome I used to have in the control room. THAT was irreplaceable. You can't have enough crap like these kinds of things. Who has a mirror ball. Or a rusted farm implement. Or a pink flamingo?

I have a cool little collection of lava lamps. It's been a good while since I've used them though.

Just a nodding dog on the window sill behind me.

I would like one that nods in sync with the tempo but I haven't found one yet.

I collected some fresh lava on holiday in Iceland (for a DIY lamp) but by the time I got it home it had turned into a stupid cold rock.
Am I missing something here?

Chris,
 
I'm not 100% sure but I think you need to have Eyjafjallajökull installed to get it activated.
Good luck!

Briton Edward Craven-Walker invented the lava lamp in 1963. His U.S. Patent 3,387,396 for "Display Device" was filed in 1965 and issued in 1968.[4] Craven-Walker's company was named Crestworth and was based in Poole, Dorset, in the United Kingdom. Craven-Walker named the lamp Astro and had variations such as the Astro Mini and the Astro Coach lantern. Craven-Walker presented it at a Brussels trade show in 1965, where the entrepreneur Adolph Wertheimer noticed it. Wertheimer and his business partner William M. Rubinstein bought the U.S. rights to manufacture and sell it as the Lava Lite via Lava Corporation or Lava Manufacturing Corporation. Wertheimer sold his shares to Hy Spector who took the product into production, manufacturing and marketing the Lava Lite in his Chicago factory at 1650 W. Irving Park Rd in the mid-1960s. Rubinstein stayed on as a vice president. The lamps were a success throughout the 1960s and early 1970s. Lava Corporation's name changed to Lava-Simplex-Scribe International in the early 1970s, and made instant-loading camera-film cartridges, as well as postage-stamp vending machines.
In the late seventies Spector sold Lava Simplex International to Michael Eddie and Lawrence Haggerty of Haggerty Enterprises. Haggerty Enterprises continues to sell the Lava Lamp in the US. "Lava lamp" has been used as a generic term but Lavaworld has claimed violation of trademarks.[5]
In the 1990s, Craven-Walker, who had retained the rights for the rest of the world, took on a business partner called Cressida Granger. They changed the company name to Mathmos in 1992. Mathmos continues to make Lava Lamps and related products. Mathmos lava lamps are still made in the original factory in Poole, Dorset, UK.

The history of the lava lamp is a government cover-story.  Lava lamp technology was actually recovered from the alien wreckage in Roswell, along with Teflon, lasers, digital sampling, and ziploc bags.

How many of you use a LAVA LAMP in your Studio?

 
 
If you didn't know this tool is essentiell to get the sound you're looking for! Every major Studio has one and so do I in my Studio!
 
 Finally, after all of this time someone posts a decent question here on the Sonar forum ;)
 
 I had one and the bulb burned out .I can't seem to find it now. I think my wife threw it out when I wasn't looking. I like the site of colored gloppy stuff foating in balls all round but then I started hearing voices and decided I needed a change. Now I have a wind up monkey who plays the cymbals when you wind him up....I wish.

I have heard that the chinese conspiracy trying to buy all LAVA LAMPS in the world. They will give them to their chinese songwriters and producers to make the best HIT-SONGS in the world to conquer all rankings 1-30 on billboards chart ...?

Forget Lava Lamps with x64, VST3 technology, that is old stuff, I want one with ARA - Audio Random Access technology announced today! I think it could work?

My lava lamp is totally analog. Powered by a 25w bulb.

Oh here we go, the age old debate analog lava lamps versus their digital VST recreations.

The big question is "Will Brandon and Seth have a lava lamp in the background in the next webinar?". I think we need to be told.
