Just released at KnobCon, with a pretty decent starting library of free modules. I wonder how this will compare to Reaktor Blocks... Reaktor is definitely much further along in terms of advanced modules (Kodiak blocks, some of the more exotic user-created ones), and Reaktor's structure view is both more powerful and less intuitive than VCV's pure Eurorack front-patching.

It looks really interesting. I've just downloaded it and intend trying it out in the next couple of days. Funny, I was looking at Euroracks just the other day and thought it might be fun to play around with them, now I get the opportunity to try them out in a virtual way.
Pretty cool thing. Bad thing is, there are rare tutorials and no documentation, but i get it going and it produces cool sounds, especially with FM. For a simple synth setup it may get complicated. And it took me 5 mind to find a bug and i needed to restart it. But well, it's free.

I can't use it at all as it pegs my CPU, and gets the fans running without a single module inserted. Completely useless for me.Loque wrote: ↑17 Sep 2017Pretty cool thing.

Has anyone tried this yet ?
seems really cool,really reason-like eurorack simulation for win,mac and linux!

few tutorials:VCV Rack is the engine powering VCV modules. Add modules, connect cables, edit parameters, and save/load patches. Create generative patches with your mouse, perform with your MIDI keyboard controller, or connect it to your favorite DAW using the Rack Bridge VST/AU plugin (coming soon). In Rack, control voltages and audio signals are equivalent, so you can modulate parameters with sonic-range VCOs to create customizable FM synths or chaotic wave-shaping oscillators. If you already own a modular synthesizer, you can enhance your setup with an audio interface supporting CV signals or a CV-MIDI-CV interface module with Rack's CV Interface (coming soon).
Yep, i gave it go. Good sounds, but it may get complicated. Didnt figured out how to setup a poly rack. But i wish, i had all those stuff in Reason, or to be more precise the modulation possibilities. Due i can build this stuff already in Reason, i just miss audio-rate modulation for FM and so on. Only VK-2 can do this atm and most synths dont have direct access to their oscillators or modulation possibilities for them.
I was surprised how much stuff you need, to get a simple lead going and how our synths hide all these stuff

Should be getting a VST wrapper soon? If so that'll greatly reduce my appetite for using Blocks in Reaktor. Cool as they are, I just can't be dealing without front panel patching!

Just in case you missed it, a minor update to 0.3.2. Also some great free plugins are starting to become available for it now. Really excited for this to get a VST shell and *crosses fingers* automation support. That + Reason. Woooooooooooooo boy.

Yeah was looking to see if it supports VST this thing would be the business in reason! No LFO's yet!? Had a little mess with it there its pretty cool. I've not messed with any sort of modular hardware ever so pretty much lost when it comes to proper routing. Managed to get some sounds out of it though!
If your ears are able..... No clue what I was doing!
Wow messing with it after looking at the proper wow to route and 2 hours past, thing is amazing! Turning the knobs is really satisfying.

It is not too much of an ask for people or things to be the best version of itself!

This got another update. Good few devices added but most importantly 2 LFO's.
The Midi devices seem to crash it though.

If only I could get the stuff I was messing with close to sounding like this beast of a track.

Just realized, there are several other 3rd party plugins available: https://github.com/VCVRack/Rack/wiki/List-of-plugins

Does LoopMIDI work properly routed into VCV from reason using an EMI device. Don't know if its the program, midi device in VCV, or Reason causing issues for me does not keep time.

Some of those plugins from that list don't work for me.

Didnt checked them on my machine, but i saw from the version number, that they differe from actual 0.4 version. This might the reason.

Think it has something to do with the name of the folder. Meh not bothered looking into a fix wait till the names get resolved.
Check this tut out thought it would be more difficult getting a kick drum from the normal modules. Has my attention atm:

Here's what is happening with the EMI into VCV for me is it the same for anyone else? Also does Ableton lite have a similar device to EMI just to test if its a reason or midi module bug?

I have not played with VCV yet however I use EMI and LoopMidi a lot to other programs and I have not had any issues with it.AttenuationHz wrote: ↑17 Oct 2017Does LoopMIDI work properly routed into VCV from reason using an EMI device.

Good to know I'd say it might be the module in VCV alrightCarly(Poohbear) wrote: ↑17 Oct 2017I have not played with VCV yet however I use EMI and LoopMidi a lot to other programs and I have not had any issues with it.AttenuationHz wrote: ↑17 Oct 2017Does LoopMIDI work properly routed into VCV from reason using an EMI device.

Ah found the problem. The audio driver in reason was set to ASIO and in VCV set to MME using the same driver in both fixed the issue
Connect an LFO to EMI pitch bend and into VCV
