Toroids

My computer kept bluescreening, so I didnt get as far as I'd like, I uploaded a version I wasnt too happy with.
I really wanted to keep jamming since I had a pretty expressive setup with the nano kontrol on this one. With the right kind of drums I think it could become a pretty nice patch.

-- later that night I decided to load it back up and play around, I the bluescreens seemed to be because I had set my thread count too high, set it back down to 1 and it ran stable, so I did a new recording and took my time, no time for percussion still but I was really happy I had the time to do a new recording.

Windows I presume? Why are you tinkering with threads? I like the tone and that you did not play too safe. Percussion could definitely lead to something. Can you apply the same control to a percs patch? The interplay might get really interesting.
Nice work!

Thank you!

Yeah on windows in VCV rack there is a setting on how many threads you want it to use, I think the underlying issue might be with my ram, based on what I googled from my mini dump. But setting to 1 thread seems to have fixed it and didnt affect the audio.

Yeah I think if I did percussion the triggers would be derived from the main event logic, thats usually how all my (and most people's) vcv rack patches go, everything is a self referential mess hehe.
