23volts 1.2.0 Beta

Hello there,

I’m glad to announce my first contribution and the arrival of the 23volts module family to the wonderful land of VCVRack.

  • Cells is a deterministic gate sequencer based on Conway’s game of life algorithm.

  • ClockM8 is a polyphonic, quantized, clock modulator designed for extreme clock modulation.

  • Morph is an XY controller which can morph between 4 different snapshots.

  • Mem is a Sample&Hold module with internal memory up to 16K samples.

  • Merge8 is an 8 channel polyphonic merger.

  • Split8 is an 8 channel polyphonic splitter.

  • SwitchN1 is a polyphonic N to 1 sequential switch.

It’s been a long ride, learning C++, SVG panel design and Rack API, which was made definitely enjoyable due to the amount of open source plugins there on github (I won’t give any names because my VCV-Examples folder is quite large… but guys, you know who you are… thank you!! :slight_smile: )

The plugin will be available soon in the plugin manager. For those on osx, a compiled version is available there :

OSX Release

It requires VCV version 1.1.6 or above.

Don’t hesitate to report any issue here or on Github.

Have fun!

Very nice! Just wanted to code a polyphonic sequential switch, but you did it already. :slight_smile:

Build fails here on linux (building with rack 1.1.5):

It needs the 1.1.6 SDK as this method signature has changed since 1.1.5

Thought that might be the issue, hence mentioning 1.1.5.

@Vortico are there plans to incorporate module browser caching into the official release and if so when? Reluctant to move on from the modified 1.1.5 as the browser full screen on 4K is just too sluggish, my system though not new is not slow, others must suffer with it too.

Can someone provide a win build? I really would like to test these.

I didn’t test the modules thoroughly or anything, just confirmed they show up in the Rack 1.1.6 browser :

Version 1.1.0 is available in the plugin manager, with a few new modules :

  • Multimap is a MIDI map utility with 128 assignment banks, so it can map 16 MIDI controllers to up to 2048 vcv parameters. Its polyphonic input can be used as a CV to MIDI converter to automate hardware, and it has a polyphonic CV output which can turns it into a sequencer as well when paired with a sequential switch.

  • MIDI-PC is a midi utility that sends and receive MIDI program change messages.

  • MonoPoly, Split4, Merge4, PolyMerge and PolySplit are more 3HP polyphonic utilities aimed at manipulating poly signals.

On the existing module front, Morph had a nice workflow upgrade, and is now able to directly assign VCV parameters and supports MIDI learn for its X & Y axis.

As usual, don’t hesitate to report issue, or suggestions, it really heps !

These are awesome! Multimap is very useful for my workflow. Thank you for this.

Outstanding!

You’re welcome. Glad you enjoy it !

New module added to the 23volts collection : SwitchN2.

SwitchN2 is a dual polyphonic sequential switch with a probability input. It can both function as two single SwitchN1 voices, and alternate between each voice relative to the probability settings.

This is a beta release, available for all platforms on Github

@23volts I don’t see any chage on your lovely repro for last 2 years, are you going to port them to v2? I really love the MidiMap modules as they can map my minilars in a visual way to I don’t have to remember what know does what and what button triggers what. Nothing else lets em map them that visually and nice. Trying to build em on v2 after bumping the version number to 2.x from 1.x(whatever x was) results in some stuff not declared in current scope, due to refactored stuff in Rack2 Hopefully that is not causing a lot of work…
