Any Rings clones?

[voh (Voice of Hannya)]

Besides the awesome Audible Instruments modules, I’ve seen a few Plaits and Clouds clones (e.g., Surge XT) but none for Rings. Are there any I’ve missed?

Source code is available: eurorack/rings at master · pichenettes/eurorack · GitHub

Maybe there is a reason Rings is harder to port?

Audible Instruments Resonator

but more … I don’t know.

[Yeager (Peter Vos)]

There was/is this one but it is not officially ported to V2. But you can look for it…

@voh

Rings is harder to port?

Rings is digital so Audible Instruments resonator should be a perfect copy? Is there a reason you aren’t counting this?

If you’re looking for other resonators, @cosinekitty’s VCV Library - Sapphire Elastika is awesome.

Yeah Elastika is great, but this has been asked before - try the search function. There’s a thread here asking the same thing:

Any poly versions of AI Resonator/Rings?

the “polyphonic” option of rings is not exactly polyphony, in the sense that you can’t play multiple notes at the exact same time via vcv polyphony, but multiple notes can be ringing out at the same time, just as in the original mutable module.

I also asked the Surge team if they would consider a poly Rings port, but there are no plans for it at the moment:

Surge XT

Slightly OT but I was thinking about how good Nimbus is yesterday, and wondered if a polyphonic Rings would be possible too?

I’m not a dev, but seeing as the code is open source and I don’t think polyphony is too hard to implement, it should be fairly easy. Any takers?

[VirtualModular]

I mean, I just want 16 channels of Rings into 16 channels of Clouds. That’s not unreasonable is it?

[Squinky]

The problem is that you can’t redistribute it in the library without making your own panels and branding.

[VirtualModular]

Ah, I suppose that’s an issue. I’ll offer to help despite not having a clue what I’m doing, I just really think it needs doing!
