Q&A for September

Hi Omri, is it possible to build Qpass in VCV?

Hello Omri! Just watched your 5 Ways Of Adding Structure video, and I loved the bit about macro controllers. It got me thinking about all the different modules/FXs that you can tie in together with one knob to create movement or anticipation. Would love to see a deep dive on some of your favorite, "go to" macro configurations, but I understand you are most likely a busy man! Have a great week

Hi Omri, could you give us a close-up of your current Midilar Controller and tell us your reasons for choosing the specific modules and layout. Cheers.

Hi Omri, I was wondering if you have any advice about how to choose filters beyond LP, BD, HP. Any good resources that gives you an idea about differences between filters. Looking at VULT for example I'm always asking myself "what's the difference between all these filters?" Thanks

Can you suggest any Hocketing device in Vcv? (it divides one melody among two or more voices) ?

By the way I bought a Sensel , so I hope you do a lot of demos about it. Txs a lot !

HI Omri, can you suggest any hocketing instrument (divides one melody among two or more voices) in VCV

Hey Omri, I’m interested in patching ideas using a matrix combiner. Or maybe there is already a video? Cheers Philipp

Hi Omri, would you be willing to do a sort of studio/gear tour? Cheers :)

Hi Omri. I'm interested in how you'd approach a multi-speaker setup. For example, if it's meant to work as an installation with 6-12 speakers spread in a room. Love your channel, love your works, thank you for everything that you're doing for us!

I would be interested to hear your thoughts on finding balance in a VCV Rack and Eurorack hybrid setup. Modules are expensive and rack space is precious so it seems like it makes sense to only put modules in a Eurorack that are unique to hardware or that hardware does better, things like Morphagene, Magneto, BIA, distortion, etc. It doesn’t seem to make sense to put a lot of modules in the Eurorack that VCV already has or does equally well, like VCAs, LFOs, ADSRs, sequencers, etc. But inputs and outputs between VCV Rack and a Eurorack are also limited and can get eaten up fast just by modulating Eurorack modules from VCV. So does it makes sense to have some redundant modules in the Eurorack? I know there is not a “one size fits all” answer to this but wonder how you approach these limitations?

Hi Omri, Here is a request about how you would do to do super compressed song in vcv....

About recording the session/performance: do you record in multitrack mode or two channel in a single stereo wave file through main out? P:S: i've ordered a midlar controller ;-)

How do you pick your scales to set quantizers to? Do you have a couple favorite ones, do you draw on your musical education (and experience) to know what's going to sound how, or do you just pick notes at "random"? Thanks! :)

I am having trouble setting up a configuration in vcv. I want every-time a pulse is reached to have the probability to activate multiple modulations all sent different places throughout the patch. When the modulation probability is not yes, I want the modulations to be bypassed and have the sound playing back without movement. I am thinking I need a bernoulli gate to add the probability, but I am having trouble finding a matrix mixer with scene selection inputs to configure the the pulse from the bernoulli gate to switch the matrixes routing. As vcv has no bypass to pass the signal through, how would you configure it so that with each pulse of a clock, there is a percentage chance multiple modulations will be sent to various destinations with as few modules as possible?

Do you have any ideas how to properly integrate VCV Rack with Softube Modular, Cherry Audio Voltage Modular and Reason Rack? In a perfect world, CV would go through these different systems as a standard and we would not be using VST Host in VCV, which seems to be the only real (and very limited) option right now.

Synth modular is fantastic. We all agree to that. And VCV Rack brings his part to this world. There are more and more amazing BUT complex (or very elaborated) modules availables. I was wondering, if there was only basic modules available (VCO, Filter, Add, Boolean, etc.) that matches simple and basic electronic circuits. Is it possible to reproduce more elaborated modules in VCV (like a Delay) ? Or if you prefer, how easy (or not :)) it is to create patch with ONLY basic modules ? I guess it'll quickly become a nightmare...
