Custom Patch Developer For Hire?

Hi everyone — I’m looking to hire/commission someone to build a reusable “subpatch” I can drop into other patches.

I’m trying to recreate the precise sound and workflow of my favorite old plugin Anarchy Rhythms: take one audio input (voice/drone/loop/etc.) and turn it into four parallel rhythmic channels driven by a step sequencer.

Anyone interested, please DM me.

I’m just curious: Wouldn’t it be a lot more straightforward to load the VST of AnarchyRhythms into Host-FX and play it right away?

It would! But it doesn’t run in VCV Rack because it’s 32-bit. And it’s vaporware at this point.

I developed some custom patches for a DJ a few years ago. It wasn’t a great experience overall, hundreds of emails back and forth, and I got 50 Euros for weeks of work. The idea was to get 50 Euros for a bass patch, 50 for percussion etc but I only got one payment. So as a money making scheme, it was a lousy idea but I think we knew that already! I did it for the experience, to improve my patching chops and to see if I could develop something to order - which I did, but the customer had a slightly different vision to what VCV is capable of.

I would consider doing it again, but it looks like you’re after something really specific here so I’d need to hear a demo to figure out if I could build something to sound similar or not. I’ve done quite a few hardware emulations (Moog MURF box, Intellijel Rainmaker, MakeNoise MultiMod) but those were all things where I heard them and immediately thought I know a rough way to do it. Someone asked me to do a VCV version of a Chase Bliss pedal and I said no, because it was too hard! I could get something similar, but I don’t know exactly what it does so probably not close enough for anyone to pay for it! :wink:

If this is it, there appears to be a 64-bit version now.

Doesn’t work on Mac, haven’t tried Windows yet. I found a YouTube video and a Sound on Sound article from 2005!

I’m thinking a 16 step gate sequencer, filter, comb filter, VCA and compression are easy enough, Looks like you can vary length of the steps, so any module that can vary gate length (VCV Gates for example). Wouldn’t be exactly the same, but I could knock up something vaguely similar. I can’t tell exactly what it does because the video wasn’t particularly clear.

It would be cool to see a simple effects sequencer vst (vcv patch) as an example to model stuff after.

Have a look at this, it used a trigger sequencer to modulate bandpass filters and emulate the MURF pedal.
