Hi all!
It's time for another Q&A session :) Let me know if you have any questions and I will do my best to answer them in the next Q&A video.
I really appreciate your support, thank you so much!

I am enjoying the vcv to ableton ( and visa verca) but also am looking to use vcv sequencing for example an arturia-microfreak or a matrix-brute , do you have some suggestions?
Hi! Well, I also have a Micro Freak and it works great with Midi. You can use the CV-Midi modules in VCV to sequence them via Midi.
Thank you all so much for your questions everyone! I just finished recording the video but if you have any more questions, feel free to add them here and I will add them to next month's video. Cheers!
Any VSTs you tend to use in Host and Host FX modules lately? The Puremagnetik plugins have been pretty fun to use so far
Nice one, thanks!
When did you first hear about modular? Was there anyone one to help you learn it when you got into it?
Great! Thanks :)
I really love your pieces such as 'Hyphae'. What would you use if you just used VCV Rack to create a similar track? I guess you would use NYSTHI samplers but what would you use for the granular stuff? Cheers.
Oh, that's a nice one!
Another question Omri: have you never been thinking about to examinate some of the patches from us? for example i'm watching also older video from you and sometimes the modules you where using aren't available anymore, so i have to figure out to get the same results. Another nice thing to see, i guess, could be how everyone of use customizes your patches. Just a suggestion. Keep on!
That's a great idea, I'll see what I can do :) Thanks!
Hey, Just reminding my question from last time about the mental process of deciding something is a song vs a jam or a test..I only ever had "real" bands and everything in modular feels like a jam and I find it hard to "close" a song, so I was wondering what your process is to hear some ideas..Thanks!
Yeah, I have it in :) Thanks again!
Hi omri . Is it possible to sync beatstep pro at 1 Ppq instead of 24 ? I am asking this because korg volca modular works only at 1 ppq . The goal is to sync and sequence volca with vcv through beatstep, using cv and gate output of this one
Well, yes, the BSP can output a clock at 1 pulse per quarter note, I even double checked the manual. I don't have a Volca, unfortunately, but I will still include this in the video, maybe others will also find it useful. Thanks!
I am wondering if there is a module or a way to patch a quantizer to quantize an incoming signal with notes played on a midi keyboard. I commonly use randomize features on sequencers, what I am trying to do is control the quantizer realtime, say I play a chord sequence on a keyboard, I would the sequencer to follow the progression. I am currently using re-win, with a pre defined selection of 16 chords, that I am selecting using a knob, and is sort of usable if I stick to a predefined scale, but very clunky to use.
That's a good one, I will have to think about it... Thanks!
Hi Omri, I'm a bit late to the VCV Rack party and last month I bought a load of modules in scattergun fashion that took my fancy without really knowing what I was doing. One of my purchases was VCV Spectra and I don't really know how to get the best out of it, do you have any tips? Also have you made and released any patches with it already, I haven't found any yet, or if not is it something you'd consider doing a video on or have you seen someone else's video online that makes good use of it?
Well, I guess it's a good time to explore this module :) I'll see what I can do, thanks!
hi Omri, i have this problem with some of the patches i'm doing following up your videos: some of them starts to crackle once i. saved the project. Not when i work on it..... i mean: when i re-open one of those patches, they start to crackle as never before.. my specs: cpu 3,2 GHz Intel Core i5 quad-core- RAM 32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3. gpu. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX 1 GB
That's weird... Do you have the latest version of VCV? Also, which mixer are you using? And also, do you get the noise also when there's no audio driver selected on the audio module?
