If you're struggling in VCV Rack or just want to get started, this is the tutorial you've been waiting for! I realize that yesterday's "Generative Ambient" tutorial was a bit much for some of you and let me say...that's okay! I was once a beginner with virtual modular not too long ago.

In this video, aimed towards the absolute beginner, I walk you through the first steps to creating your very first patch. In my example we're creating a basic sequence from scratch, but you can use these techniques to go in any direction that you choose.

Hopefully you guys find this one useful! Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

Cheers,

Thanks, Chris! It's really cool to see the VCV Rack around here...

Thanks Chris! The Generative Ambient tutorial might've been a little easier to follow if you had listed the modules you were going to be using. Several weren't ones that come with the standard install so I found myself having to go download modules a few times. Great tutorial though, loads of fun!

This is excellent, thank you so much! The best tutorial i've seen on vcv rack. I have a couple of issues 1. I couldn't find the strock reverb - weird! 2 i can't seem to plug in the SIN on the LFO into the CUT on the VCF, for some reason it will only let me have one plugged in at a time - any tips for that? thank you!

thanks! i used surge XT reverb, however still the issue with split cables, it works in otherplaces not here. I'll try and figure out why, maybe it's somethign to do with it being the free version.
