could you connect it to the rack?

Man I need to do that… I really need too… do you set jack on input in Renoise and output in VCV!? I’m not sure I feel cool to change output in Renoise but I could do that with the input.
But that’s how you route it right!?
in Linux is pretty simply (perhaps it work in the same way in mac since both are UNIX ) and work flawlessly.
just open the preferences of renoise and select jack in the device type, add the numbers of I/O that you wish.
Open the rack and select jack as audio driver and the I/O (or add a Skjack input or output module ) route the connections freely
I found this
I hope can help
PD: by the way, I tested this pipeline on windows, and works , but poorly
Pd2: ahh you are in to bitwig too! you can connect renoise , bitwig and the rack all together through jack (I think you seriously must consider switch to Linux )

Btw, what would you say are the main benefits using Jack over Bridge!?
Should I pick Jack 1 or Jack 2
?
I use bridge over jack 
I host VCV bridge in Carla, that way I can use LV2s with VCV, though I can’t automate them (sadly the Carla VSTs won’t run in VCV Host for some reason). Another benefit is all my jack routing persists if I have to restart VCV or my DAW (mixbus) for whatever reason and if I wish I can still use VCV with external effects without the DAW running.

Renoise runs VCV via Bridge, but no midi sync (or I’m not able to figure it out) and there’s some crackles and what not. Jack should be more stable right, and when someone said Midi sync I felt heck yeah… still not sure whether to go for Jack 1 or Jack 2. Its like the Matrix red or blue pill, someone has to say something. Im on a iMac, Mojave, no plans to upgrade. Just make music…
It doesn’t matter a great deal, they will both work. As far as I remember JACK 2 has a2jmidd built into it so your midi ports will be exposed easily. However, you can also install a2jmidd and have run when JACK starts with qjackctl.
edit, sorry forgot you’re on a mac and not linux

Yeah, gut feeling tells me I should go for 2. I’ll set this junk up this weekend, thanks!

Renoise 3.2 works like a charm here too … still need to figure how Renouse and VCV work best together … I am not a huge fan of VST …
ATM I simply create nice samples with vcv as clean as possible and use them with the Renoise build in Effects and Tools

Try the free version of Renoise then, it only has very few restrictions to the registered one. Lots of infos on their YT-Channel what is possible.
