Multiplier Module
for VCV Rack, Ⓒ Sm@rTAZZ Studio, developed by Marinko Laban
(Last updated April 6th, 2024)Introduction
The Multiplier is my first attempt to write a VCV Rack module, and it is therefore extremely simple in its design and working. It simply replicates an input signal to 4 outputs. It would make sense to have this as a hardware Eurorack module, so you can send a signal to multiple other modules. Since VCV Rack supports doing that by connecting multiple cables to the same output, it does not make a lot of sense as a software module. However, it can be useful sometimes to have a more tidy lay-out of your patch.
The reasons for starting this plugin, and a series of other plugins, are:
- I want to gain experience in the C++ programming language. C++ appears to be the mainstream DSP programming language and this is a good-sized set of programs to sink my teeth in.
- I love synths and guitar and anything around music making and recording. Just as a hobby, as I have no professional education in this field.
Manual
There is no real manual, as this plugin is extremely simple. One input, four outputs, replicating the input... nevertheless, you can find a short tutorial below:
Source Code & Plugin
Feel free to download the source code of this module. It is part of the STS-Free bundle and the full bundle is available here on GitHub. The STS-Free bundle (slug value "SmarTAZZStudio-Free") is also available as a downloadable plugin from the VCV Rack Library, so you can download and install the module directly from VCV here.
