Enjoyable work.

I am also one of those people who wonders how you managed to make VCV Rack work. On my machine all it does is generate XRUNs.

Hi Paul,

re: 1625 :

if you could:

   (a) do the hour long version
   (b) come over and run my VCV Rack install for me

that would just fine. Lovely work, as usual! Such nice tone taste.

Thank you ! I'd be happy to do both, but alas, my time is limited, we're moving into new digs this week. Sorry about that. :)

I had you and Will Godfrey in mind after working on this one, I hoped you'd enjoy it. I do have a second section prepared - it adds about another four minutes to the piece - I just have to figure a way to merge the essential aspects of the continuation into the original patch. Rack is not yet optimized nor does it support multicores so I have to be careful about patch size, there's a tipping point that sends its performance into xrun hell.

Regarding the sounds: I use fairly simple modules for sound creation in Rack, doing so makes me think about ways to subvert their simplicity. I also use only a few straightforward effects (reverb, chorus, tremolo), I find it helps to keep the textures clear.

I had hoped to present a "composing with VCV Rack" paper at LAC 2019 but our move puts that notion to rest. Dang.

Best always,

dp
