Instruo won't show up in Library

I believe it’s glibc 2.23 and libstdc++ 5.4.0, which correspond to Ubuntu 16.04

I’m on ubuntu 18.04 and 1.1.0 seems broken. it just keeps reinstalling over and over.

Edit: just understood the above, I’m stuck on glibc 2.27 :frowning: Looks like 20.04 has a new enough one.

That’s annoying. I just downloaded these, and rebuilt the squashed FS where I keep VCV. I guess I don’t need to push it out to my machines. Respect the existing minimums please, guys!

That also works with Slackware provided you patch VCV’s build to pass -D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=1.

Jason, the (or one of the) devs replied to my email… new build incoming later tonight or tomorrow. :slight_smile:

OK, that’s annoying. I tried it out on my Windows box and it was working. Came back to my regular Linux desktop and discovered the Instruo plug-ins don’t work. Only time I’ve had this happen all year. Hoping they get it fixed so I can play with it while on vacation.

I just booted it up today, updated it, and the Instruo modules show up and work now! :smile: My thanks to the devs for fixing the issue. :clap:

As one who kvetched obnoxiously, I must say thanks to the Instruo crew for sorting this out so quickly.

New toys! :smiley:

hi guys, I’m running VCV rack 2 on a mac with sierra 10.13.6. Downloaded the instruo modules, but they don’t appear in my library. No instruo folder in my user folder.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance, first post here :slight_smile:

Instruo modules have not yet been ported to VCV 2

not yet

why i do have Instruo in standalone version but not in vst (using ableton macbook air m2)?

You are probably using the x64 Standalone and the ARM64 vst version of Rack2 and Instuo are not ported to ARM64 yet.

Is there a workaround for Mac users? After latest update my instruo library disappeared because ARM64 version of the app. there seems to be no other option to install, so does that mean I have to wait for instruo to update modules? or is there a way to work around it?

You need to install both 2.5.2 ARM64 and 2.5.2 X64 so you’ll be able to use the instruo on version 2.5.2 X64 until they update.

plenty of work arounds. Use modules that work on ARM. i.e. most of them.

if we’re talking about instruo, their whole current library ain’t working on ARM64 :frowning:

Yes, of course. That’s the title of the post. Everyone here is well aware that they are one of the few hold-outs who have never updated their modules, and they are one of the few closed source ones.

I just meant that depending on what people’s needs are, they might have more musical satisfaction finding alternative modules that have not been abandoned, rather than trying to cobble together an intel installation just for this.

But of course people will and should do what makes the most sense for them.

yep in the end that’s what i went for. discovered some great modules browsing library. just as with any other hardware clones, instruo are a nice start up point into vcv from hardware, to sort of narrow down the huge library that you can get lost in. but i agree, with some research, i DID find alternatives :slight_smile:
