Just a note:
use SAVE AS in Rack2 VST
It’s not always possible to load a patch created in the VST in standalone.
If the patch was created when VST is loaded in ableton, and saved with “Save live set”, it gets saved in the proprietray formatted .als file - never as .vcv
So there is no obvious way to get to the .vcv patch file for loading in Standalone VCV.
So better use SAVE AS in the VST version of VCV - don’t rely on the Ableton Save Live Set - it uses a binary proprietary closed-source non-disclosed format (actually gzipped xml - the vst patch file is probably the <vstplugin> <buffer> field, it may or may not be gzipped, I haven’t investigated further)
here’s a snippet from a 7515 line .als file
