I ran the installer after downloading the windows version zip file. It seems only to offer CLAP versions--is this right? I don't Ableton Live can run CLAP plugins, right?
Doing nothing is only fun when you have something you are supposed to do.

No Ableton Live users allowed this month. :borg: :arrow:

Previously when we used Clap only synths some people used a plugin host like ildaeil:
https://kx.studio/News/?action=view&url ... 2-released
https://github.com/DISTRHO/Ildaeil

Otherwise, there are several DAWs which do now support Clap, and they might be worth a try.

Are people allowed to use the FX plugin that comes with the synth?

Also, call me old-fashioned, but I'm usually looking at these things:
https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/850 ... ?nocache=1

4/69 is not much, but I would love if the creator worked on making it zero. Trojan-Spy.WinGo.Agent most probably is a false positive, but it doesn't sound fun.

- Virtualization/Sandbox Evasion
A cursory look at other things doesn't show anything egregious, but I'm not an expert; 4 experts say there's probably something. I'd rather not have anything.

I love music, worked with a number of music/rhythm/dance games like Pump It Up, In The Groove, Cytus and Deemo, and teach music production.

Another month, another synth, woohoo!!! New OSC is like opening gifts on Christmas morning :hyper:

(well at least for those of us with CLAP hosts 😜 )

Post

Damn no vst 3 :(
I will try the ildaeil system within ableton and see how it plays out.

Post

Thanks for doing this, I'm a huge fan of virustotal (It's still part of Google I think)

It's almost certainly a false positive. I think the scary bits like Portable Execution and HTTP Communication is just 1) We have a executable inside another (aka an installer) and 2) There are some links like a discord and github url embedded in the dll.

Yeah seen a vst3 version converted with a clap wrapper, downloaded it and will see if it works.

Post

For Windows users who need VST 3, I built the clap-wrapper with the latest versions of CLAP and VST3 on Windows 64-bit. It seems to work well from the brief test I did with it (there certainly could still be problems). It works by loading a CLAP plugin with the exact same name, so in theory you could just copy & rename it to get a VST 3 version for any other CLAP plugin. To use it, download the:
Integrate.vst3.zip
Extract it to get the Integrate.vst3, put that file in your C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3 directory, then rescan.

Hope this works for people :pray:

P.S. some of the oddities you might see are present in the CLAP version, too, like occasional blank screens, GUI appearing in weird spots, other things.

I have a question, Integrate has an additional FX plugin with some LFOs and effects that would not be allowed under normal rules (chorus, phaser, heavy multiband distortion...).
Are those effects valid to use with the fx version of integrate? Or are we only limited to the synth version?

Integrate (synth) has already those effects included, but opening up the possibility to chain them multiple times may be interesting.
Has there been any mentioning about it yet?

Certainly is allowable to use the fx version of integrate without limitation for this OSC. They will still be considered 'part of the synth'. I am sure we have done this before with previous synths.

Hello
In the Reaper with CLAP version of the INtegrate, I've tried MIDI learn for one of the knobs, but it doesn't work. After selecting Learn and turning the physical knob on my controller, no MIDI CC is assigned to the Command.
TBH, I don't know if it's Reaper misconfiguration or the plugin blocks these MIDI commands.
Would you be so kind as to verify that?

with regards.
