How to launch VCV Rack in Carla as Jack Application?

Post by christobal »

Title is pretty self explanatory I think. I wanna launch VCV Rack in Carla Rack so I can load it up inside Ardour. I seem to remember seeing a video where falkTX showed how to do it, but I really can't remember where I found it.

Anyone have an idea? I've tried just linking the Rack executable as command in Add Jack Application - but no matter what setting I choose it just gives me:

"Timeout while waiting for a response from plugin-bridge
(or the plugin crashed on initialization?)"

I can add other jack apps no problem.

Many thanks! :)

Finally got it up and running as a plugin in carla through CarlaRack :D

The Plateau reverb in there is just so lush sounding, finally I can use it as a "plugin" :)
