Folks:

If you run VCV Rack surge and VST surge and are on windows 10, we are seeing an occasional error. Until Rack updates the library (or you install the new rack surge by hand) you may get crashes. More details here: https://community.vcvrack.com/t/surge-r ... -1-3/21156

You bet! Here's screenshot of latest ShortCircuit XT. One of the big things in 1.3 is we started refactoring the effects so they can be used outside of surge, and this is the list we got to already. We will get the rest of them. (We may do airwindows slightly differently but that's a detail)

Thanks, Bacon! You guys are putting some serious work in. I can' wait for SC-XT to come out! It'll be the perfect 1-2 punch with Surge

A new version is going to be released really, really soon.

I'm going to dig up the Dexed thread so you can tell us what you know!

When I try to access the OSC specification from the main menu my browser shows a broken link to a temporary file in /tmp. Anyone know if I'm doing something wrong?
(By the way, if you haven't tried it, I played around with upping the sample rate and was amazed at how much more definition I got out of certain sounds, and how low the latency got! Lovely!)

Is it possible to make a very fast pitch modulation cleaner, like in, say, Vital or Serum? In Surge it falls apart pretty quickly and become artificial. Tnank you.

Surge's modulation is processed every 32 samples, so it is not really super conductive to audio rate modulation. Use other synths if this is what you need.

Hmmm, I cannot confirm this over here.

Ok. Though, I forgot to say that I don't try to use an LFO for that modulation. Rather an ordinary Envelope to modulate the pitch. You know that fast lazer sound ))

It's the same thing. Also different oscillator types can respond differently to pitch modulation.

What's your OS out of curiosity?

What's your OS out of curiosity?

I'm on Kubuntu 22.04, browser is firefox. It does in fact generate the html file correctly, in /tmp, but then firefox gives me "file not found" (even if opening directly from the file itself).

However, I just tested and can open the file in Bluefish, and saving that with a new name and opening it works just fine. Surely something out of whack on my system. (Maybe permissions, as file is generated in system not user directory?)

Yeah sounds like a permissions thing in that particular flavor of Linux.

Vember Audio Surge is now open-source
