I notice that the Rack Core Midi to CV plugin has the option of polyphony, is this something for the future? I didn’t think polyphony worked on the MM.
MIDI Polyphony works, but the thing that’s not supported is polyphonic cables. That is, you can play multiple MIDI notes and route them to different oscillators etc, but you can’t use a single polyphonic cable to do the routing like you can in VCV Rack. The consequence of this is that modules themselves aren’t inherently polyphonic. So if you want four channels, you need four of each module. Versus in Rack some modules can be polyphonic, so they detect a polyphonic cable and will process the parallel signals.
and is there a future possibility of polyphonic cables (between modules)?
Yes, but we haven’t started any work on it, and it remains to be seen how performant it’ll be…
