Chaotic Instruments

Plugin bundle for VCV Rack 2, developed by Songyuan Shi, 2026.

Modules (V2.0.0)

  • FFTF — FFT spectral-freeze effect: snapshots the incoming spectrum and sustains it indefinitely as a frozen pad.
  • Modal Filter — a state-variable filter in parallel with a keytracked modal resonator bank (up to 32 partials), crossfaded to one output.
  • Modal Filter Expander — adds 5 polyphonic resonator voices to Modal Filter, with individual offsets, mutes, and CV modulation.
  • Waveguide Delay — grid-stepped, clock-synced Karplus-Strong feedback delay; spans glitchy echo at long delay times to a tonal string at short ones.
  • Grain Shift Delay — granular delay through a single-sideband frequency shifter tapped into the feedback path, compounding into an inharmonic staircase.
  • Yao — clock-synced generative complex LFO, steered by an I-Ching trigram change engine.

Building

make            # compile -> plugin.dylib
make install    # build + copy into the user's Rack plugins dir
make dist       # build a distributable zip
