Techno Jam with VCV Rack

Here's a demo patch with a few new SignalFunctionSet modules. FILL is an in-development drum "sequencer" that comes preloaded with a few hundred base patterns from across the globe, but naturally defaults to Motorik.
FILL features a 'pressure' function which adds controlled tension during build ups and release after fills. You can add your own patterns with a simple text format or import them from drum-patterns.com. CHANCE is a generative parametric sequencer. Here it is driving two Rings'.
CHANCE is in the library now, but if you'd like to try your hand at a prerelease version of FILL, feel free to join my Discord for access to nightly pre-release builds: https://discord.gg/zRRUez59dB

Hey Folks, here is a new fully realised track. I used a lot of different patches, traditional DAW stuff, and a heap of post production. So much editing that it was impossible to make a synced patch vid. In the comments I'll post a link to the main patch that got me started. Hope you like it!

I'm trying to sequence different groove types on Portland Weather for an interesting effect on my snare. Specifically, I'd like to modulate between the "accelerando" and "late reflection" groove types but I keep running into a problem I haven't experienced before. Using the Bog Audio ADDR-Sequencer set to +/- 10v, I was only able to modulate the groove type up/down one step, while 0v was my starting point (e.g., -10v= Alt. Swing, 0v= Accelerando, and 10v= Ritardando, which can be seen in the attached screenshots). The CV input seems to need considerably more than the 10v most sequencers output. I tried using different sequencers and even paired them all with Rescale from VCV and set the gain multiplier to 1000x and got similar results.
Does anyone have any experience with this kind of thing? I've spent roughly 5+ years experimenting in VCV with a decent variety of techniques and have yet to encounter something like this. Any solutions or insight would be greatly appreciated!

The newest build of my SignalFunctionSet plugin launched today in the Library and I thought I'd call out RECORD and PLAY. In a nutshell, these allow you to record a patch to the open SFZ standard and play it back at some future time without recreating the whole patch.
RECORD gives you a lot of control over the multisample - Sampled range, step frequency and velocity layers are the most important, but there are a few more.
PLAY lets you load any SFZ or DecentSample multisample instrument for use in a patch. I am using it a lot for non-synth voices in my patches. There is a context menu option to control one shot vs. gated playback. I've got an updated version that didn't make it into the current Library release which gives even more envelope control.
Check them out and let me know your thoughts! The 2.16 build includes a number of other modules which I'll cover in a video in the next day or two.

Hi Guys,
Im completely new to vcv rack and I'm so hooked.
I've built my first few racks and patches. Right now I'm looking for a step sequencer where I can change pitch and velocity at the same time. I've found a couple of step sequencer but mostly they run through 8ths/16ths whatever. I want some silence in-between. Can you recommend me a good one? Thanks in advance

Here is a new tribe tekno track made with VCV. Feel free to share feedbacks
r/vcvrack • u/Scopula • 3d ago
This VCV Rack patch sounds like a two-handed piano composition — but nobody's playing it. A fixed, hand-programmed sequence from Animatek UZZ acts as the left-hand comp, while a random CV melody — generated live and quantized to a scale — plays the right-hand line, all voiced through Valley Terrorform, Befaco EvenVCO, Chronoblob2 delay, and Valley Plateau reverb.
The comp voice never changes: it's a fixed set of steps programmed directly into UZZ. The melody is the opposite — random voltage passed through a quantizer locked to a major pentatonic scale, so it's different every run, but always in key. That contrast — one voice fixed, one voice generative — is what gives the patch its "composed" feel even though half of it is being written in real time.

Hi. Got to this place from a recommendation by Gemini. I would like to compose with whole number tones and wonder if there are packages of these available? If not, do you have the tools for generating tones on any number in the audible range? I need whole numbers from 1 to whatever? Does it stop at 20khz? Thank you.

10 unique VCV Rack patches built primarily with Befaco modules, showcasing the incredible versatility of the MUXLICER analog-style sequencer and the IROI multi-effects processor.
From evolving ambient textures and generative sequences to rhythmic grooves and experimental modulation, this video explores different ways to patch MUXLICER beyond traditional step sequencing. Each patch demonstrates creative routing techniques, voltage-controlled sequencing, and expressive sound design, with IROI adding spatial depth and character.
Modules featured include:
Befaco MUXLICER
Befaco IROI
Befaco KICKALL
Befaco NOISE PLETHORA
Befaco VC ADSR
Befaco Even VCO
Befaco HEX MIX VCA

Hello, sorry if this is a dumb question, i'm relatively new to VCV. I've been trying to figure out how to FM a filter at audio rate while matching it to the hertz of the oscillator i'm filtering. And i would like to do it using an lfo, so i can play with different shapes. Can anyone educate me? Thanks!

I tried blue cat free amp, and that was perfect for my minimal needs, but it has some issue with host that keeps rack.exe running after vcv is closed. The only fix I could figure out was killing the task, which is inconvenient. So, I'm looking for a replacement or fix for Blue Cat.
