ReaRoute with VCV Rack issues
There is also VeeSeeVSTRack https://github.com/bsp2/VeeSeeVSTRack

Rack 2 (Virtual Eurorack)
Since some people don’t like the cathedral development style VCV rack uses, I point people to a fork of an older version of VCV rack with two features VCV rack 2 doesn’t have:
* It can run as a VST plugin, so one can use it with their favorite digital audio workstation (DAW)
* The code is BSD licensed
Here is that VST plugin fork: https://github.com/bsp2/VeeSeeVSTRack#downloads

How do you integrate VCV with Ableton?
Hete is an old VST port I found. Haven't used it in a while so I don't know if it's stable: https://github.com/bsp2/VeeSeeVSTRack

Bespoke Synth 1.0 – open-source software modular synthesizer
* The VST fork of VCVrack for a modular synth: https://github.com/bsp2/VeeSeeVSTRack#downloads
I would get a keyboard controller with full sized keys and a 5-pin DIN MIDI out for just over $200, but that can come later.

Why I'll never create modules for VCV Rack anymore
Again, I prefer the fork at https://github.com/bsp2/VeeSeeVSTRack#downloads because it’s a working VSTi, and because it’s under a BSD (not GPL) license, which has more flexibility in certain circumstances; I remember the arguments around 2001 or 2002 when there were concerns Python’s license was not “GPL compatible”, so I have always found GPL licenses pedantic.

Is there any proper manual for the Behringer Crave? (Besides the quick start guide)
Try vcvrack.com to get a handle on the basic principles.

LMMS can control VCV Rack through MIDI
I set up a drum beat and a pattern on a muted track to control this Eurorack simulator. https://vcvrack.com/

Does anyone know exactly what this does?

Please help me grok use cases for modular.
Since nobody else has mentioned it, you might want to try VCV Rack. It's a pretty good modular synth in software (bonus, it's free!). You can save and load complete patches, so it scratches that itch to recapture a complex configuration. Lots of good information in its dedicated subreddit.

Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
Mine is Scheme for Max, now on it's fourth open source release, but really written so I could make computer music how I want to. It's an extension to the popular Max/MSP visual music programming environment that embeds an s7 Scheme interpreter and provides a substantial API/FFI to Max. It allows you to script Max (and thus also Ableton Live) with Scheme, enabling interactive coding, algorithmic music, live coding, macros, and just much more pleasant scripting than in JavaScript. It locks in with the scheduler so you can even use Scheme powered sequencers within Ableton Live alongside regular Live tracks, and you can build sophisticated Live control surfaces using the Live API.

The Janet Language
If you like things like Janet, you might also like s7 Scheme. It is also a minimal Scheme built entirely in C and dead easy to embed. I used it to make Scheme for Max and Scheme for Pd, extensions to the Max and Pd computer music platform to allow scripting them in Scheme. (https://github.com/iainctduncan/scheme-for-max) Janet was one of the options I looked pretty closely at before choosing s7.
The author (Bill Schottstaedt, Stanford CCRMA) is not too interested in making pretty web pages, ha, but the language is great!

Ask HN: What have you created that deserves a second chance on HN?
I created Scheme for Max and Scheme for Pure Data. They are extensions to the Max/MSP, Ableton Live, and Pure Data computer music environments that embed an s7 Scheme interpreter in the host so that you can script, automate, and live code the hosts with s7, a Scheme from the CCRMA computer music center at Stanford and the same one used in the Snd editor and the Common Music 3 algorithmic composition environment. This allows you to do things like write algorithmic music tools, sequencers, and use the Ableton Live API in Scheme, including with Common Lisp style macros. It has an API for integrating with Max to share data structures, hook into the scheduler, run in the high priority thread, and so on. S4M allows you to do all the goodness of high level music programming in a Lisp, without losing the ability to use modern commercial tooling and instruments. It's my thesis project for a Masters in Music Technology with Andy Schloss and George Tzanetakis at the University of Victoria, and I plan to continue to a PhD working on it. I tried submitting twice, but it never made the page, which surprised me a bit given Lisp interest here.
