SurgeXT for VCV Rack

This repository builds SurgeXT Rack modules.

It has tags for each official release (including tags for the prior Surge 1.7 releases) as well as the current beta on the main branch.

By far the easiest way to use these modules is

  1. Install VCV Rack and log into the library
  2. Go to the "Surge XT" plugin page in the library here
  3. Click the "subscribe" button in the upper corner. We recommend all users subscribe to the entire plugin and not module by module, since the modules work as a suite
  4. Restart VCV rack and update your library.

In addition to versions in the library, we provide user downloadable binaries here, including the Nightly which is our current beta.

If you are looking for the source of the prior Surge modules in the VCV Rack library please check the release/2.1.7.0 branch.

How to develop with these modules

Checkout sources:

git clone https://github.com/surge-synthesizer/surge-rack
cd surge-rack
git submodule update --init --recursive

Option 1: Use standard rack make

export RACK_DIR=location-of-rack-SDK-or-source
make dep
make dist

Option 2: Build with CMake:

mkdir surge-rack-build
cd surge-rack-build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=dist -DRACK_SDK_DIR=location-of-rack-SDK-or-source ../surge-rack
make install

To compile the plugin with CMake for Mac OSX x86_64 platform append -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES="x86_64" to the cmake command, to compile for arm64 platform use -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES="arm64".

Alternatively create a plugin release with Make and point to an existing cmake build location:

CMAKE_BUILD=location-of-cmake-build-dir make dist
