This is awesome, a rack module running a VCV rack patch...
WOndering if it runs Elk... probably not... impressive!

it looks cool. and would be nice to emulate different modules in my actual rack. I have not seen the cost yet.

Back when it was all clinical grey Doepfer stuff I used to think Eurorack was really cool and sophisticated. These days it looks like expensive candy for man-babies. Lol

But the flashing and blinking pretty lights and patterns are fun! :thumbup:

I also like the blinky mods. But one of my favorite utilities is Maths, which is quite grey. Modbap's Osiris is my newest module. It is black, hot pink, and teal. It's like driving through the 80s at night.

You read my mind.

Black face modules are pretty sexy too. Some of the white & multi-colored stuff... not so much.

Disclosure: I sell black faced Eurorack modules at my store, so I'm biased. :mrgreen:

So whatever happened to the idea that RS floated a few years ago, about being able to run RE's in some sort of hardware platform? Did that idea die?

I posted about this a couple weeks ago, with links to the old ELK speculation.

Dan from 4MS has been posting on ModWiggler about this module. It's running bare bones on the chip without ELK it seems. also:

"There are two Cortex A7 processors, each running at 800MHz, which run the audio processing in parallel. The co-processor (Cortex-M4F, running at 240MHz) handles reading the controls, USB, SD Card, and other system tasks."

The big thing is there won't be any appstore involved with it. All VCV source to be included will get put into the firmware.

It's going to be a huge deal when this module comes out. They are porting all their real world modules to VCV, too.
