This still hasn't been reported on the issue tracker, so likely nobody will work on this until it's being tracked.

How do you go about that ?

We shouldnt force people to use github. It works as issue tracker and to host the project, but people should not need an account in order to use cardinal and report to minor things.

It helps of course to have an account of course, specially since it makes all info related to a project be on the same place.
Random reports over the internet might get some attention and be fixed too, but that is also random

Well that's the thing: we can't keep track of random reports over the internet. Which means they are unlikely to be looked in to or be fixed.

Version 22.12 has been tagged
https://kx.studio/News/?action=view&url ... 2-released

The big news is the addition of Surge-XT modules

Binaries on github as per usual
https://github.com/DISTRHO/Cardinal/releases/tag/22.12

You can also try it out without installing at https://cardinal.kx.studio/
(assuming a Firefox or Chrome-based browser, and beefy CPU)

Thanks, loving those Surge modules, that mod system is very elegant and saves a fair bit of patching.

Howdy - I was playing with Cardinal on a MACOS and trying to replicate a typical synth demo, with keyboard input for the notes. I can't get any notes played this way - am I missing something? Thanks a bunch!

keyboard as in PC keyboard and not MIDI keyboard? Cardinal purposefully does not have input keyboard mapping to simulate a virtual keyboard, use the host or a real MIDI keyboard for that.

Thank you - out of curiosity what is the thought behind this limitation? And, in that context, what is "the host"?

DRMR · Post by **DRMR** » Fri Dec 30, 2022 1:39 am

"the host" is the software that you run the plugin in. This is typically a DAW, but can be any software that can run audio plugins.

It's in the job of this software to handle such events.

Been playing around and really enjoying the Surge XT modules in Cardinal, really great collection. They also contain one of the few LFOs that can easily sync to host of the ones available which is really useful, so thank you for taking the time and effort to port these! Was looking for a simple pianoroll within the included modules but couldn't find one (I realise pianorolls are not really a thing in a modular!). I notice RCM modules have a free basic one, would you ever consider porting those modules in the future to Cardinal? (I appreciate you've probably got a wishlist for modules somewhere!)

DRMR · Post by **DRMR** » Fri Feb 03, 2023 6:22 am

RCM Modules are `GPL-2.0-or-later` so that would be compatible, yes!

You can find the module wishlist on the project wiki, which already includes RCM: https://github.com/DISTRHO/Cardinal/wik ... to-include

Note that you can load LV2, VST2 and CLAP through the built-in Ildaeil Host module, and have those send MIDI data out that can be converted to CV (with the MIDI out expander).
VST2 and CLAP for now only accessible through "load file..." option but should work

Ha, I did not even realise the Ildaeil host was there, that is amazing, so cool being able to host VSTs inside Cardinal! Thanks for the head's up, I am sure I can get something up and running with a piano roll in it in the meantime (Image Line's Minihost modular is not a bad option for this) and then be able to trigger patterns via CV-MIDI possibly, certainly this opens up a new world with Cardinal!
