(Help Found) Soundemote looking for dev to convert our plugins to VCV Rack.

I hope this is ok to post this here. Rules don’t mention anything about it.

See company website: www.soundemote.com

We are just starting to come back to life after a few years of inactivity. We have secured business partners, funding, UI artists, and programmers. I would like help in porting our DSP to VCV Rack. Programmer only needs to know how to put the pieces together. I will provide DSP code and art assets.

E-mail me at soundemote@gmail.com with subject: VCV Rack development with your desired compensation. Resume is not necessary; any of skills/experience/links to examples in the e-mail message is appreciated.

Wow, especially this one looks like is bound to go hand in hand with the @Omri_Cohen album, The Geometry of a Mushroom!

I want this…

I have no clue when it comes to coding, but I would love to test them when the time comes…

One little thing you might want to be aware of: Rack’s vector engine is rather limited, supporting only a limited subset of SVG features, with performance issues. You will probably find it difficult to just send your existing assets to a programmer and have them integrated in VCV cleanly.

(But on the other hand, in the VCV world, you’re mostly selling to sort of alpha nerd who doesn’t really care how good the module looks, only about its features)

Good point. Btw, I’ve seen in some threads here that there are some people who pick their modules by attractive panels.

i think the natural evolution of Rack module UI is going to be more detail. some modules already have quite a lot of realism like Vult and it doesnt look out of place next to a more standard set of components.

Well we’re not short of modules to choose from so why not?

Dann. That filter sounds like it was worth the wait :slight_smile:

Are you looking to make paid modules, or free Rack modules?

I don’t know why the video froze on a single frame. This is running at 88200hz. Running at 44100 will sound similar, just a little more grainy and possibly slightly lower max frequency. See github page: GitHub - soundemote/soemdsp-vcvrack · GitHub In the readme is a semi-detailed explanation of how the filter works. I’ve been wondering for a long time if I am the first to use a wavetable to generate resonance. I know I am not the first to stumble upon this. But perhaps the first to detail it enough to make a dsp-polished filter with it? With wavetables in the feedback path it allows an arbitrary amount of control of character. Polivoks-style-chaotic-resonance is possible with this approach. If I would coin a term, it would be:

“Wavetable feedback filter” which mimics analog filter behavior, skipping complex analog modelling math and recreating what might be going on in the grand scheme of things: analog filters are soft locking oscillators… a 2nd order of magnitude more soft than “soft lock” oscillators.

And this is a Tri-core Highpass Filter: https://youtu.be/0YeF2PfKqDg

Tri-core Lowpass F​ilter (LP24): https://youtu.be/zjAue88ahk8

I realized that none of my audio demos actually feature “resonant filter” examples because I dialed in high drive and high resonance for the previous demos. The above is to remedy that. You hear the filter genuinely ring. That is wavetable feedback ringing out.
