Share your current template patch

[lukaskalmar]

that clocked/mindmeld/valley combo

this is my template mainly because I stole it from an @Omri_Cohen video… please don’t tell him

come to think of it, wanting to make a fixed rack also came up a couple of months ago on one of @Omri_Cohen’s videos…

pinging omri, i’m curious if you have any esoteric templates you wouldn’t mind sharing

[Omri_Cohen]

It’s not fun if you don’t share it with others And yes, I have a few ideas for more fixed racks but I’m just waiting for VCV to stabilize a bit first.

[Ahornberg]

As you see, there’s a new kid growing in the Ahornberg module family. This is my test patch.

My start template patch

[geusens.dries]

Stand-alone template. I’m running Plateau, Valhalle Supermassive, Soundtoys Echoboy and Clouds on the 4 aux busses. Then there’s some dynamics, coloration and limiter: Bassmaster, Waves Kramer Tape, Waves LA-2A and Fabfilter L2. Channel 1-8 on the MindMeld have some lo cut filtering and levels pre-set.

[TroubledMind]

Mine’s pretty similar to everyone else’s. I used to have Iverson and Entrian Timeline in it as well but they are not available yet.

My standalone monster that loads mostly disabled… enabled as needed.

*Patch not included as it has a couple paid modules and a few, as yet, not in library.

I was just updating my template patch, so I thought I would revive this topic, how are all your templates doing?

Previously my template patch had been slimed down to just the very basics because when testing modules during development I normally don’t want any extra fluff around my focus.

But having changed my speakers I need to update my audio settings in the template, so I figured I’d make a change:

The main changes are simply reintroducing a mixer, because adding a mixer is normally the very first thing I do in a new patch. Adding a limiter, because I am a lazy and don’t like anything to be too loud. Added the Host-FX module because, although Chronoblob is amazing, I feel it is becoming a crutch, so I am going to prop myself up on ValhallaSupermassive for a bit instead. And finally, I swapped out the Inklen Cable Color Key for the Count Modular Palette. The Inklen module is great, but I really really need it to remember which colour I have selected between saves, rather than revert back to the first colour, I find that so annoying.

I am trying to decide if I should move my Keystep Pro over to my work desk and setup the midi and maybe a Patchmaster thing as a controller… do I want that in the template, or just as a selection that I can import?

Not much change since Dec '21.

The Inklen module is great, but I really really need it to remember which colour I have selected between saves

I absolutely can’t decide between Inklen - great for recolouring - and the Submarine one - collapsible and lets me pick from a long list of colours to cycle through, but setting cable colours after the fact is laborious…

This is my current template:

Using Stroke to map keys to some basic functions like reset, record start/stop, mute, and zoom to extents of the patch. The Startup Delay forces a reset on patch load and also forces the patch to be muted for the first 3 seconds after load.

@CountModula

The Startup Delay forces a reset on patch load and also forces the patch to be muted for the first 3 seconds after load.

Interesting, so you save patches that are in a running state or is this just a safety thing? (I guess you might be loading someone else’s patch and don’t know its starting state)

I normally always put in some sort of start/stop mechanism before I save them, which I also use during any video capture, but I could see this being useful for saving in progress patches

[CountModula]

Most of my patches tend to be free running or I have a sequencer controlling the arrangement and I’m too lazy to stop everything and reset it before I save it so I force the restart on load.

Actually I’m more into sequencing with trackers:
