Very cool! We also tried porting your modules, as well! Iā€™ll PM you

Hi Dan, great to see you here.

Iā€™m jaynothin and Iā€™ve been playing with VCV exclusively since 2017. Totally addicted now. :wink: So thatā€™s my intro. :rofl:

Iā€™ve been asked by Loopop, who is in the process of reviewing the MetaModule, if I could try and make a couple of patches so he can load them in the MM.

I donā€™t know much about the module, but Iā€™ve installed the plugins package available on github.

Iā€™d like to know, if possible, if there is a listing somewhere with all the plugins I can use (160-200?) and perhaps even their CPU load. As I donā€™t have the IRL module to test. That way I could be faster and he wont have to try and readjust everything.

Maybe Iā€™m just anticipating to much and I donā€™t need any list :slight_smile: But Iā€™m in the quick searching process right now, so before I start building patches Iā€™m gathering all the information I can :smiley:

If there is a manual also? And if Iā€™m not suppose to have any of this because Iā€™m not one of the reviewers, no problem, I totally understand.

Maybe in my research Iā€™ll answer my questions. But in any case, thank you. :slight_smile:

All that info is to come! Manual, website with list of pluginsā€¦ Iā€™m talking with Loopop, too, so we can go more in depth about specifics over email if you like.

Itā€™s going to be a little hard to create a patch blindly, but my suggestion would be to prioritize modules that are the built-ins: 4msCompany, Befaco, AudibleInstruments, HetrickCV, NonlinearCircuits, Eightfold, Valley.

Plus the open-source plugin brands so far:

Not all modules in all plugins work well on hardware. In general, if it does something that an old-school synthesizer module canā€™t do (like, have an XY touch-pad, or is impossible to use without the screen, or it does some magical thing like remote-control a neighboring module) then itā€™s not likely to be very fun on the MetaModule.

As for CPU, reverbs use a lot of CPU. Itā€™s fine to use stereo reverb on every patch if you want, but I wouldnā€™t try to add 8 reverb modules or something like that.

Thanks :slight_smile:

Appreciate the answer and Iā€™ll go with it :smiley: this is great Iā€™m sure Iā€™ll come up with something even if I go blindly on it :stuck_out_tongue:

That looks cool. It would especially be cool to use if youā€™ve had a BA-level understanding theory and are comfortable with notation. My own musical practice any more is un-notated, and often Iā€™m not thinking in chord shapes or melodic scales at all.

But OpusModus looks like something you could get really deep into.

This is exciting to see. Welcome!

Hey, I am Peter :wave:. VCV Rack is so cool!

I am currently into music theory and different tuning systems. Iā€™ve done some theoretical discoveries, and I want to make them practically audible. Building some modules for VCV Rack seemed like a very logical next step. The ones I released are the very beginning, there is more to come. Check them out in the library at VCV Library

Thank you Andrew for building such a powerful piece of tech!

Very cool, @peterjungx . I am also interested in alternative tunings.

You should consider posting a dedicated announcement thread about your plugin to the Announcements category so everyone can find out it exists and what your modules do. Plugin announcements are moderated, so you will have to wait maybe a couple of hours before VCV Rack allows the thread to be posted. This is to ensure that the announcements are legitimate, to protect VCV Rack users from malware, scams, etc.

Excellent - we need more people experimenting with and/or developing for alternative scales and tunings.

You might want to check out my Venom Non-Octave-Repeating Scale Intervallic Quantizer. It is great for all manner of alternative scales and tuning systems

ehi just want to say hello, started using VCVrack for about a month and Iā€™m having lot of funā€¦my name is Davide I am from Italy, guitar is my main instrument but I have been messing around with electronic music some years ago with a roland mc505 and then with a little eurorack system. Now with VCV Iā€™m learning new stuff and experimenting with modules I just dreamed about for yearsā€¦and thanks everybody for sharing, this is amazing! :heart_eyes:
