Seattle, WA, USA – Nov 27, 2021 – Slime Child Audio is proud to announce a new version of Substation for VCV Rack, v2.2.3. This update adds support for the newly-release VCV Rack 2.0, along with some new features commonly requested by users.

The update can be obtained from within VCV Rack or downloaded from itch.io.

Substation v2.2.3

Rack 2.0 Compatibility

This update adds support for the hotly-anticipated VCV Rack 2.0, including support for DAW integration with Rack Pro. All future updates to Substation will require Rack 2.0, and will not support earlier versions of Rack. However, we will continue to make Substation v1.2.1 available for any users that wish to remain on Rack 1.0.

New Quantizer Scales

By popular demand, the Quantizer module now has the option to use either Major or Natural Minor scales.

Relative Sub-Oscillator Detune

You can now configure the Sub-Oscillator detune knob to use either Hz or cents. When using cents mode, the exact detune amount is dependent on the absolute frequency of each oscillator.

Filter Quality Settings

LP4 Filter now provides the option to configure the filter quality. While the difference between quality settings is inaudible in most cases, a higher level can help reduce distortion when self-modulating resonance and cutoff.

General Improvements

All modules received various small bugfixes, UI polishes, and performance improvements. Install size, RAM, and CPU usage have been further reduced since the previous version!

Price and Availability

Substation for VCV Rack v2.2.3 is free for existing customers. New customers can purchase it at https://slimechildaudio.com/substation for $15 USD.
