Check out my previous Cupix/Virtual tour video here: czcams.com/video/NjLrhF5qo4M/video.html :)
I just bought the one x and I'm trying to learn 360 tours and wow, ur videos does such an in-depth job. Thanks man. Great video
Awesome vid Ben. Thanks for putting in so much editing time to your tutorials.
No problem.. was definitely happy to finally finish this one lol
awesome, thank you
nice job ben
the video I was waiting for without even knowing that I was waiting for it! Thank you. Awesome work, again!
Great minds!
Ben... fantastic video and very timely as I just bought a 360 Camera and use Cupix. Just starting out and first tour did not turn out like I wanted. After viewing your video, I feel I can now tweak it to perfection. Keep up the great work.
Glad to hear it Eric đ
Ben, I'm really grateful for what you're doing here. I've been looking for an opportunity like this for awhile. I picked up my first 360 camera a couple weeks ago I am so excited about the potential in this tiny pocket device. Thanks again!
Awesome! Good luck đ
Ben, you do an excellent presentation and awesome content. You're the best 360 channel on Tube. Big thumbs up!
Hey thanks a lot!
Alex Castillo I totally agree!!!
Good Tutorial Thank Dude..!
You make it look so easy Ben ...well done đđ
Thanks Ernie- if an idiot like me can do it then anyone can!
Best Cupix tutorial I have found. Thanks Ben!
No worries
i cant believe this has only 8k views....thanks you so much ben for making these videos. i just bought the xiaomi camera and i am looking so much forward to it. what you are doing here is future stuff and i am so glad that you put up these videos. i guess you do not inspired only me, but at least another couple thousand people.....just keep up your work mate, im trying to like every video i watch from you, just because i think you deserve it. thank you so much dude.
Glad to hear it- thanks for the kind words!
THIS IS AWESOME! Thanks Bro Ben :) You are awesome as usual.

Excelente, felicitaciones gran trabajo, de grande quiero ser como tĂș...đ€
Great video as usual Ben... wow mi sphear, nice to see how good you are doing with that camera.
Cheers buddy
Thank
you
đ
Great vid Ben đđ» , uploaded a tour of 1 building with 2 distinct areas when cupix first came out but could I hell join them up so forgot about it, program looks way more advanced now so will go back & try again after watching this
EXCELLENT VID you little âïž
Thanks a million đđ»đđ»đđ» WK
Go for it buddy đ
Thanks Mr Ben, this does help a lot. please consider using a bright pointer for better visual.
A bright pointer?
Awsome editing. Your videos looks great. Hope i will learn this one day
Thanks đđ»
Just getting into this and this and your other tutorials are incredibly informative and helpful. Thanks so much and I'm looking forward to browsing through more of your vids. -H
Happy to hear it!
Wow - thanks!
đ
Thanks, I was wondering how to remove images from tour. I had one that contained a stupid amount of pics, so I had a brilliant idea(so i thought). I uploaded less images, and then I had to reposition every shot because cupix couldnt figure it out. Now I know, shoot everything, upload, and remove unwanted. Thanks Ben
No problem- yeah thatâs definitely a better idea
Man, you are just great.
Thank you so much! this is great stuff!!
No worries đ€đ»
one question. Why are you using the mi sphere when you said the theta v was better in another video? Is the mi sphere a better choice for spaces where the light isn't drastically changing?
awesome.... thank you so much!!!!
đđđ
Ben you're awesome in making 360 tutorials. Please make one on how to deal with 360 videos in Cupix.
Thanks- itâs not possible yet
Great video! Thank you!
No worries đ
LIFE in 360 have you seen kuula.co?
Yeah
your channel is outstanding
Thanks
Another quality content from Ben...Thank you for this!
I just purchased a ricoh theta v for this virtual tour.
Thanks for sharing
Awesome- good choice đ
After 2 years what happen with you
@@HussainAlMarkhi I have now moved on from the theta v.
I use a DSLR for my virtual tours and it now a full time business.
@@collinsnna that's great can I have your website to have look ? đđđ
@@HussainAlMarkhi sure, check out opinow.com that's my website.
Cool. Sound track :)
Good info also
Cheers Warren đ»
Ben you do a great job with your content. Two criticisms I have of bloggers in general. They care too much about hearing themselves talk ( you seem more genius in helping others rather than the amount of âFaceTime on screen )
The second, and itâs more my fault, Iâm 60 years old and Iâm from Tennessee. Which means I talk slow but I listen even slower! CZcams viewing involves a lot of rewinding for me! It would be wonderful if you could just slow it down a bit. You are an expert and experts tend to rattle off things they think everyone should know. But we donât.
Keep up the great work just maybe a little slower , more deliberate and while I love the comic antics perhaps just a little less.
You really are very good!

Ben, Great video! I was swaying towards Matterport but was put off by being locked into only using their camera, and software. Since watching I've just ordered my first 3D camera, and also started the Cupix trial. Thanks for the upload! :-)
Glad to hear it đ
Iâm in the same boat. I havenât pulled the trigger on anything yet, but can Cupix do what Matterport does?
Thanks a lot, these video is very helpful, i really apreciate your work
I have a petition, could you teach us how we can put the virutal tour in to a web page?, pls, i realy apreciate.
Thanks- there is an embed code within Cupix that you can use đ
Sorry, IÂŽm new in these things, when i download the Cupix file, wich file countain the embed code?
You donât download Cupix files.. in the publisher menu you will find an embed code. Good luck!
yo!! you got some phat intro and outro hip hop beats! I had to download them and loop them.
what was the first track called, its a dope beat isnt it kind of stuff i used to produce when working in music
Another great video - thanks for teaching us about these new things - a liked video from me đđ
No problem my friend đ
Just ordered your book hope it helps me see ya
Of course it will- good luck!
đđŒ love the channel! Does it matter what file type is used for upload?
Great video Ben! Quick question - I can't seem to right click on Cupix. Which browser are you using?
Thanks- what do you mean by right click on Cupix?
Nevermind, it works now. I couldn't right click the mouse to get the options to do stuff to the points. But just restart your computer and it works...
Music is a bomb
Ok..
Hi Mr Ben. Awesome videos. You have been my inspiration for getting into 360. Question for you. I have the Oculus Quest, is there a way to view tours created in Cupix on the Oculus Quest?
amazing content Ben, i'm also using Mi Sphere, will start soon with virtual tours. Any future video about the post-processing of the panoramas?, how you edit in Camera RAW, you shoot bracketing, to make them HDR, DNG or just jpeg?
Hey thanks- yeah Iâll try my best to make a video when I get a chance!
Hey Ben hope all is well and your content is truly inspiring. Ive recently started up my own photography business and virtual tours are my new focus. I have a Mi Sphere and am learning the ropes of using it but when I try to upload the photos with the stock pc app they do not show up I would love your help. And once again , regardless of response, your THE BEST ON CZcams HANDS DOWN!!! ...Thanks
Hey thanks Evan- what do you mean by the stock PC app?
The Mi sphere app for PC
Thanks for sharing ! I am a french photographer and I would like to know, if the result on cupix and the final 360 videos belong to us ? Or it depends on a cloud like on Matterport.
Thank you I subscribe :-)
Hi Ben! You are an amazing inspiration I work with individuals with learning disabilities who love to test new innovative technology like 3d printing, VR, Programmable robots, drones, 4k filming and 360 cameras.
You have helped us a lot so thank you so much. We will be making hospital visits less scary for individuals with autism by creating video and interactive 360 tours breaking down barriers and de sensitizing individuals who might have refused to attend important appointments and consultations in the past due to their disability. We will put the tours into VR and let people experience hospitals and surgery's to show everyone its not a scary place to visit.
I have one question about Cupix, after you send the tour to google street if you delete the tour off Cupix, will it still be hosted on google street view? As some places want the interactive tour and some just want it on google street.
Thanks again and keep doing what your doing you have impacted on many people's lives for the better!
Hey thatâs awesome to hear, thanks for sharing! To be honest Iâm not sure as Iâve never tried it.. I canât see why it would be taken from google but it would be worth testing đ
Ben, i'm just starting with Virtual tours and i would like to start with this Cupix as it seems an easy solution. But i do have one question about this... I can upload the tour to the website and give the link to the client.. but can i also download this complete file to save on my Mac ??? Thanks for helping out ! Keep up the great work !
Thanks Ben, great channel. I don't seem to get the same options to lower the markers that I see on your recording - wonder if they've rejigged the GUI.
They definitely havenât changed it lol.. make sure the area is selected that you want to effect
Thought I did, at least pretty well like you did in the vid. The options appear a little different however. Will give it another go. Ta.
Hi Ben! great tutorials! Are you just using cupix for your virtual tours and just using mi sphere camera or always with a combination of ricoh theta v? thanks a lot for your reply!
Ben, fantastic as always. The Mi sphere is out of stock everywhere I look. Is the
XIAOMI MADV 360 Camera with Bluetooth Remote Control, as good? I just bought the Insta360 R dual camera. That would probably work as well to I imgaine?
How well can Cupix work for creating outdoor park virtual tours?
Hi, Ben!
I really like your videos. But what about when you don't have a place to hide like in an outdoor area?
Thank you
Then youâll have to edit yourself out of the shots
Can you elaborate on that point where you mentioned adding features to the room ?
you pointed to the curtains at 9:12
I need to do just that, change the objects in the already captured room, then show a before and after version while in the tour, be it in VR or just on the screen.
What is a good price to charge?
Hi Ben, I just started with Cupix, I have a problem to do pushpin, when you move to other direction, the pushpin is on the different place (even though i locked the movement), maybe you can share to me the trick? to make the pushpin with stays exactly on the designated object?Thank you, Ben :)
How do we move points to floor position in current version? Lock position doesn't exist anymore.
Love your reviews, Ben! I'm at the PRE entry point to virtual tours at the moment. I think I understand how monthly hosting fees for real estate work on platforms like Cloud Pano, as this allows the estate agent to change what is shown as properties are sold and new properties are offered to the market. But are there any platforms where the whole tour can be hosted by the customer, on his/her own website, without the need to pay a monthly fee to the likes of Cloud Pano? I'm thinking of when the customer doesn't want to change the tours regularly, but wants to show the same thing for long periods. This might be hotels, schools, conference centres etc., where they don't need to change their virtual tours all the time? Rookie question, I know! APOLOGIES!!
Love your videos.. I'm wondering if you know how to edit pre-recorded sound to mimic 360 surround so that you can hear every instrument around like you're in the middle? Hope you understand
Thanks- sorry I have no idea.. itâs not easy and not really worth it in my opinion. Maybe youâll prove me wrong đ
great video what is the tune at the beginning to 2 mins
Thanks- will look it up
How can I see the dollhouse of the property I shot?
Hi, I have watched a few of your video's and loving the content. I am looking to learn everything I can about virtual tours so that I can potentially start another business. I am considering investing in your course but wondered if you have any videos or blogs either for free or in your course that compare the 360 cameras to matterport or the likes of geocv for 3d virtual tours.
Hi ben! Thanks for the nice video. I watched your previous work, but I was unable to find the 3d map. Can you put the link for the 3d map. thanks again
Thanks- the 3D map isnât public.. itâs more a behind the scenes thing as far as I understand
Why do only some generate the floor plan?
Please, make one video how to fix spherical orientation of the pictures at Cupix.
I did and itâs this one..
Hey Ben, thanks for the great content. Always learning from your videos. đ Question: I have a client that I will be shooting a VR tour for, I have purchased a monthly subscription to cupix, however I think I will have to keep paying the monthly subscription for awhile if the client keeps wanting to view the VR tour for lets say 6 months. Once I stop the subscription the VR tour will not be accessible to the client. Is this correct or is there a way around it? If I keep getting more clients to do VR tours then its fine to keep paying the monthly sub but if not then it just doesn't make financial sense to keep paying.? Thanks mate.
Thank you for great content!!! What's the name of song in the beginning
Thanks- will have to look it up what Iâm at my computer next đ
Thatâs a really nice video ! Do cupix plan to deploy a oculus go or application ? Or is it just on the web ?
Thanks- Iâm not sure.. that would be cool if they did
Hi. So far we don't have a plan to support HMDs including Oculus and Vive. We mainly focus on the web viewer, but we do have a VR view mode.
what is the best 360 camera to use to take virtual tour?
See my recent videos
Ben, does Cupix allow you do get rid of the tripod in the shot?
Great tutorials
Thanks Barry, itâs not a photo editor but it allows you to cover the tripod with a logo as I showed here đ
Brillant tutorial. Just a quick question. Once published on google maps, what if the building had some renovations in the future? Is it just the case of going into cupix making the changes and then publishing again on google maps?
Thanks- yeah you can just unpublish and republish
Thanks Ben for your videos, im happy to tell you that i just got the THETA v and im looking to start a business creating virtual tours. So i was wondering how to charge clients to create a virtual tour?
Cool! Iâll make a video about this in the near future, as itâs something Iâm still learning myself đ
Can I ask why you don't use software like 3D Vista etc.? Also, are you editing your panos photos prior to bringing them into Cupix and what software to you edit/color correct in? Amazing videos mate!
I do use 3DVista, just didnât know about it when I made this video. And yes I do basic color correction in photoshop. You can see my full workflow inside of my Virtual Tour Pro course đ
Hey Ben....LOVE your videos.....addicted! Listen...where would I go to learn how much to charge for doing 360 Virtual Tour Video's?
Thanks Valerie, Iâll try to make a video about this đđ»
good $tuff
Excellent video.
I am having trouble limiting the maxim camera angle, Iâve tried altering the max and minimum tilt angle in the customise player section but nothing changes, have you any solutions.
Thanks
Thanks- what do you mean by the maxim camera angle???
Hello, my 360 camera lens is broken How can I fix it and get a lens?
My camera is mi Sphere 360
Hy ben very good job. But was it long to build a tour like this 1 day 2 or more
The processing time depends on the number of photos you upload. It takes about 2~3 minutes per photo. The process is all done by our server automatically, so it doesn't require you extra time or effort. :)
can we backup tours to other cloud services and restore them back whenever needed?
Hmm not sure
How does street view handle the multiple sections? If I look at La Porte on maps I cant seem to get upstairs.
Hi Jonathan- like I mentioned in the video if you want multiple levels on street view, you have to upload as one section. Mine was two sections. That said I think theyâre improving their service to allow multi levels soon đ
Hi Ben, great work with your video. I'm using my Samsung 360 with Cupix. Do you know when it will release the pay version and how much will cost?
Can I create many places I want on Cupix or there's a limit?
Thanks- not sure when they will start charging or what the prices will be. For the subscription based accounts I imagine youâll be able to make as many tours as you want.
Dear Ben, first of all I want to say that your videos are great. As there are so many different software solutions for virtual tours. Do you think Cupix is the software to choose for virtual tours?
Thanks- yes I really like it! Although to be honest I havenât had time to experiment with too many others
Thank you for your quick answer. We are going to establish a 360 page soon here in Spain and order your video tutorial. đđ»
It's great .. even i am using MI sphere same camera which you are using how you getting very good quality .... is it done by cupix to make a good quality or you make it by Mi sphere app.... looking for suggestions on how to make good quality photo by MI sphere .. Thanks in advance :)
Thereâs no trick.. just shoot and upload
What else can you do for a client besides connecting the tour to google street view? Just provide them with the cupix player link to use as the want?
Yeah so they can embed it on their website
Hi Ben, one more question, Cupix is horrible at getting back to me. I can't seem to adjust the pano height like you suggested. It works on a couple random panos but I can't adjust the elevation on all of the panos. Any tips?
Try asking through their Facebook page- they always respond to me within a few hours. Do you have the whole section selected when doing this?
I love all your tutorials Ben. Here is the question: Do I need to communicate with my mobile LG K7 while shooting, or I can simply use dedicated remote control, store images to memory card, download it to desktop computer and stitch images with Cupix version for Windows 7 PRO?
Cupix isnât a stitching program.. you will need to stitch however your camera does so and then bring to Cupix đ
Thank you Ben, I appreciate your help
I realize this is over a year old but I just ordered the Theta Z1 with the idea that it will be used for virtual tours of real estate. I photograph real estate on the side and wanting to add more services I make available. The goal isn't to take this full time or anything, but a good user experience is key. Are you still recommending Cupix over say Matterport now? There are so many options but those two seem to stand out as far as the polished look and features. Have really been enjoying your videos as of late since I ran across your channel, thanks!
Hi Zach, glad youâre getting into 360. Yes Iâd recommend Cupix over Matterport, Iâll also make a big comparison video soon that features many softwares. Also Iâll be releasing a course soon about virtual tour creation- you can sign up to be notified @ www.virtualtourcourse.com đ
hey Ben Claremont. Which camera do you recomend for shooting 360 videos with use in a VR headset. We are also planning of making virtual tours and which camera do you recomend for that?
Check out my video âwhich 360 camera should you buy in September 2018â đ
have you gotten your hands on the new Qoocam 360 3D camera will you do a review for it and upload actual video footage as well? if so ill definitely want to watch that one.
I have one coming soon :)
This was interesting. I didn't even know it was a "thing". (NOTE: Visiting Sydney in September.)
Itâs a thing alright đ
Awesome channel, I'll be back
Great!
Great tutorial Ben, thank you. One question: If you upload your tour to Google Street view and then go back to Cupix and make some edits - is it synchronized with Google Street view?
No. The 3D tour in the Cupix app and on Google Maps are not synchronized after publish. Thanks :)
You have realy an amasing product and I'm sure that it will help many people step-up their 360 business. Keep up the good work.
Are you using the Mi Sphere?
Yes
Hi
Can you tell me if the tripod that come with xiaomi is any good to use under the selfie stick?
By the way good work
Thanks- yes you can although itâs tiny and you would risk the camera falling over
So i'm trying to use cupix with my insta360 one. Though I can't upload because it says the file format is not supported (INSP) but I can't figure out how to change the file format of my 360 photos. Yes I've googled the crap out of it...
You just stitch in the app đ
Hello Ben, Is cupix still a good virtual tour application or is there better out there. Ive tried the free option and quite like it.
Itâs still one of the best- I havenât tried them all so I canât comment on too many others
Another excellent video, Ben! What are the up- and downsides of Cupix compared to Panotour? And if it is an improvement, can you import stiched photos from Autopano or does the stiching have to be done in Cupix?
You need to upload the stitched photos with a width:height of 2:1. Cupix doesn't stitch photos but you can import photos from Autopano. :)
Thanks- Iâve never used panotour, so cant really compare
Great video, Ben!
To keep the client virtual tour on line on street view, you must have to pay almost $30 box monthly right?
Do you charge your client as an assignature too? Thank you for your video.
Thanks- you gotta spend money to make money.. itâs up to you how you want to distribute the costs but a few virtual tours a month will easily cover the subscription cost
Great video Ben, as usual. One other question - how do you charge clients for this type of work. Any tips? Thanks.
Thanks buddy- Iâll try to make a video soon about this đ
Terrific. Keep up the great work. Thanks.
Is there any course to master this software ??? I am from mexico
Iâll be releasing a course about virtual tours later this year :)
