Hi everyone! Here’s a quick update on the ports. January had me extremely busy at work, and now that I have free time again it’s been going to hardware (finally assembled my Mutable module tester and Teletype bus board) and snowboarding (while snow is still a phenomenon that exists in North America) rather than staring at a screen. Apologies to anyone waiting on the binary release of the VCV Rack ports.
The only hold up right now is that the grid-module connection system is not as stable as I want it to be; I’ve managed to snuff most of the bugs, but there’s still some weirdness that I think will only be eliminated by replacing the ugly right-click assignment system I slapped together (which was originally intended as a temporary hack) with using regular Rack cable connections to bind grids (real and virtual) to modules. This will be a bit of an abuse of the Rack cables, since they won’t carry audio, but my estimation right now is that this will be possible without changes to Rack, and since my next planned Rack project also involves cable-connection abuse, it feels like a worthwhile investment.
I’m going to start tackling that this week, so hopefully I’ll have more substantial news to report before much longer.
