RJModules Octaves Alternatives ?

Plugins & Modules

Hi Do you know an alternative to the RJModules Octaves, (which has not been updated for VCV 2) ? It’s like the VCV octave module but with eight channels.

I made an equivalent from the VCV module, but as you can see it’s not very practical and takes up space. I just found LittleUtils BST. It’s already better,

As you can see, I also have to double the network for ADSR, otherwise the VCV only receives the three initial signals, and therefore only outputs three voices.

Maybe there’s a smarter way to do this. I’d like it to be more compact and less cabliquitous haha.

I’ll drop the test patch if it helps.

The perfect module(s) exists: Stoermelder Affix for up to 16 channels, and uAffix (MicroAffix) for up to 8 channels. The module context menu lets you choose the mode of the offset knobs:

  • fractional volts
  • integral semitones
  • integral octaves

I recommend combining the 16 channel Affix with the VCV Merge and Split modules. Or for a very compact solution you could use docB M16 and S16, but I find those ports a bit cramped for my taste.

For the 8 channel uAffix I would use the Grande Merge8 and Split8 for a very nice compact solution.

Yes !

Since the channels are already combined, and I want polyphonic signal at the output, I don’t even need merge and split modules. As you say, the perfect solution.

Thank you very much :grinning:
