Thanks!
I just discovered it online (youtube, of course) and was amazed!
Sadly, it's not in the Debian repo (as so many things)...so I wonder if I dare the jump...

You can download it, and that is basically the only method to run it in most Linux distros. Here's part of the story about it (quite incomplete because many comments and issues connected have been deleted): https://github.com/VCVRack/Rack/pull/1406

There is also a long post, that we can agree or disagree with it, of Aria Salvatrice on VCV Rack: https://aria.dog/barks/why-i-will-never ... k-anymore/

But if I may... I would suggest Cardinal instead, which is a VCV Rack as plugin with only FOSS modules. See this topic: viewtopic.php?f=48&t=23731

Hi, thanks for this input. I looked at Cardinal and went into overload. Wow...that's a lot of real estate to cover :D
It'll take some time to master this, though...it's the first thing I ever learned in the 80-ties when really getting into the music...
Those days, I found an old magazine ( something like this...yep, this is where I come from :wink: ) and learned all about VCO's, VCA's, LFO's and what not...
It'll be a homecomming, I'm sure :)
