#d CHEM (Controller for Haken EaganMatrix)

The #d CHEM plugin is officially released and available to subscribe (for free) in the VCV Rack library!

CHEM - (C)ontroller for the (H)aken (E)agan(M)atrix is a software controller for all Haken EaganMatrix devices, including Osmose running EM firmware 10.40 or greater. The plugin contains 16 modules for working with your hardware. CHEM is focused on performance. It is not a replacement for the Haken Editor.

It includes preset browsing and navigation, playlists, macros, effects, and access to all general settings – all with voltage control by plugging cables from other Rack modules.

CHEM modules are: Core, Preset, Play, Macro, Pre, Fx, Post, Convolution, Settings, Jack, Sustain, Sos 1, Sos 2, Overlay, XM, and MidiPad.

Congratulations on this momentous achievement, @pachde! I never got a chance to try these out in prerelease but I can’t wait to dig into them soon. Amazing work.

Just submitted 2.02 to the library to fix a broken Convolution module (and few other tweaks).

Haken Audio have released a beta of firmware 10.61 (along with the wonderful new native Editor – goodbye MAX).

In my checking, CHEM is looking pretty good so far. If you install the new firmware, you’ll need to clear and re-scan the preset lists. I had a CHEM crash Rack doing this the first time, but it worked just fine the next time, so no damage done.

There are some new options in a couple of remote corners that I will do updates for, but existing functionality appears to be working.

As always, let me know if you run into issues, or have requests.
