Voltage Modular 1.2 released! Plug-in hosting, OpenGL, and more!

Rod,

I just tried the trial version of Retrologue 2 VST 3 and it loads fine for me, of course. I assume you have the latest build and all that. Can you send a crash log to [email protected] ? Are you simply loading it or is there something else you are doing?

On a Mac the VST selection is defaulting to the user library location and not the system library location.

It is correct for AU and VST3.

I updated my Cubase 10 to the latest version and my Retrologue 2 as well, but cubase crashes when I try to show the Rerologue synth inside the VM as a plugin. That is I appear to load it but can't show it. The VM log doesn't show much - "Show menu under object 2645829200" and I think this is around the point where I try to show Retrologue 2, that's the end of the file:

Rod,

When it crashes, it should have some sort of crash report or DMP file for Cubase. Does it crash in the standalone in this scenario? At any event, send the crash report and/or DMP file for Cubase to [email protected] . Thanks!

Thanks, I've looked in all known Cubase crash dump file locations but can't find a recent dump...

Hi there! First post and new VM demo user here.

I tried to load up the VST3 version of the plugin in the latest versions Reaper x64 and Blue Cat's Patchwork and seem to be having problems. Attempting to load the VST3 in Patchwork just crashes that host. The VST3 plugin loads fine in Reaper, but when I switch between the Full Sequence presets, it crashes Reaper and allows the sound to hang until I close out and restart the computer.

Where should I look for crash logs so I can submit a support request?

Hi there and welcome aboard!

These aren't known issues, but we will look into them and see what we can find.

Thanks,
Dan

If there's anything I can do to help in terms of submitting crash logs, I'll be happy to do it.

I've just had Voltage since yesterday and already it's my favorite virtual modular. I'm amazed at how efficient it is, yet still sounds as good as softube modular quality to my ears. It's quite fun to actually load other modular VSTS with the plugin host, creating patches that take advantage of the strengths of each. My only wish is that you can eventually add a way to increase the size of the hosted plugin window -- on 4k monitors, it's extremely small and hard to read the parameters. Still very usable but not ideal.

Great work devs! Very excited to see this evolve.

Agree with you! Sounds really really really good. Think that sounds different compared to ST Modular, each one has its strengths In the last weeks I have been using ST Modular hosted in VM for modulation and sequencing purposes as well as ST Modular as an Fx. What comes up is mind-bending, IMHO. Think that both plugins complement quite well.
Next steps will be hosting NI Reaktor and MP MXXX.
