Developing Virtual Synthesizers with VCV Rack

CHAPTER 6

Let’s Start Programming:

The Easy Ones

The boring part is over; from here on. we are going to build and test modules!

If you followed the previous chapters, you are already able to compile a module and edit its graphical user interface. In this chapter, we start with coding. The easiest way to take acquaintance with coding with VCV Rack is to build “utility” modules that are functional but do not require extensive DSP knowledge or complex APIs. We are going to set up a comparator module, a multiplexer/demultiplexer (in short, mux and demux), and a binary frequency divider, shown in Figure 6.1.
