Hi,

I had this error the other night, it was really strange, and the theme and everything reset to default. and I just tried to use theme import, for this new Dracula theme, and I got the same error

“Failed to parse the XML file.”

I’m just about to reinstall 3.2.2 again.

Optiplex, Win10 pro, Core i5 9500 (6 cores), 16 gigs of ram, ssd 256

Ok, completely uninstalling and reinstalling didn’t do anything to fix this

Cause that Dracula theme looks so cool, and I can’t check it out …

Obviousely when exporting an effect chain in instrument effects ,it only exports the current chain which is acceptable , but when saving presets again it only saves the current chain , not the whole effects ( all chains)

Why is that?

Hi folks

I was using Renoise earlier (3.2.2 x64). I have loaded it twice since booting up my computer (Thinkpad T520 i7, Windows 7 Pro) and closed the application after each use. The Resource Monitor and Windows Task Manager are still showing two Renoise.exe instances as active and it’s still taking up memory, even though the application is not currently open. If I run and quit Renoise a third time, a third instance of it appears in both, and the memory usage goes up again. Pic below.

Is there any reason Renoise “loiters” in the memory, and is there any way of stopping this happening if it shouldn’t be occurring? My CPU usage seems to be higher than it should be - wondering if that’s something to do with this.

Cheers!

Ben

I submitted a case via Backstage, but Backstage does not allow for screenshots to be attached to cases.

I’m running Renoise 3.2.2 on macOS 10.15.6 with HiDPI mode enabled at 225% scaling, and there is a subtle white border atop windows that are atop the main window.

Hi,

I need a simple “buffer-delay” vst that fills in a specific PDC amount. There is voxengo latency delay, but it is useless for me, because it always introduces a PDC of 200ms. Any idea for me? Help please!

Just curious… I feel like my average track count is always low. 12 - 18 tracks at the most (includes sends/returns)

Please excuse me my ignorant question, but why as of 2020 there is still no port of OctaMED v4 on Windows? I’m not a programmer but the way I see it is it can’t be that difficult to do this, considering how primitive and small the program is in its essence, right?

I’ve done a little google search and it seems in order to use the old OctaMED (v1-v5) you still require an Amiga emulation which kinda sucks… I couldn’t find any in-depth tutorial which explains how to set this up and the few people that managed to do it are kind of secretive about it… As if it’s some kind of hidden knowledge that shouldn’t be passed on, OMG…

Anyone care to shed a light on this please? For the love of the community.

Hi.

I am developing a tool to midi map the Launch Control XL (I know it exist Duplex, but my aim is to learn how to do it).
I 've done the complicate thing, but I don’t know why, after creating the midi_callback with : renoise.Midi.create_input_device(device_name, IncomingMidi) I can receive incoming midi but only for a couple of second, then the device close itself (I see it on the Renoise message bar at the bottom of the main window), even no “midi_device_in:close()” instruction is present in my code.
I don’t know if it is the ‘garbage collector’ of lua or Renoise itself, but it my “midi_device_in” object is closed by something… Any Idea to figure out why (the hell) ?

Note that I am new with lua, but not new as a hobbist programmer.

My code:

local function IncomingMidi(message)
assert(#message == 3)
assert(message[1] >= 0 and message[1] <= 0xff)
assert(message[2] >= 0 and message[2] <= 0xff)
assert(message[3] >= 0 and message[3] <= 0xff)

if math.floor(message[1]/16) == 0x09 then
print(“Note - Y:”,IncomingNote(message[2])[1]," - X:", IncomingNote(message[2])[2])
midi_device_out:send {message[1], message[2], red_full}
end

if math.floor(message[1]/16) == 0x08 then
midi_device_out:send {message[1], message[2], off}
end

if math.floor(message[1]/16) == 0x0B then
print(“Pot:”,
IncomingPot(message[2], message[3])[1],
“\nvalue:”,
IncomingPot(message[2], message[3])[2])

if IncomingPot(message[2], message[3])[1] ~= 0 then SetValueToParameter(1, 1, IncomingPot(message[2], message[3])) end

end

end

local midi_device_out = renoise.Midi.create_output_device(device_name)
local midi_device_in = renoise.Midi.create_input_device(device_name, IncomingMidi)

Hello.

I’m trying to figure out a way of controlling the knobs in the combinator from renoise. This was possible when rewire was used. Have anyone managed this when used as plugin? I’m thinking of these (A):

I have found work-arounds by mapping any of pitchbend, mod-wheel to for example “filter frequency” of one of the combined instruments. But, it’s just not the same since mod-wheel and pitch already has functions that i will loose.

With rewire, the rotary knobs 1-4 was controllable with M0 + 47-4A, now the same command does nothing.

The values that seems to respond in reason may be the same that reason names “performance controllers” in the bottom of the combinator. (B in image)

Have anyone came across this and solved it? How?

Hey everyone,

I just downloaded Renoise for Ubuntu, and was excited to see that it’s one of the few DAWs that you can easily download for Ubuntu.

I have used Ubuntu for a while, but I know literally nothing about Linux. I use it because it’s faster and simpler and less annoying than windows, but I know virtually nothing about directories, editing files in the text editor, etc. Keep that in mind in your responses, I probably have little idea what you’re talking about but I can follow step by step instructions if they’re truly step by step.

I’m having two issues. One, I get the “Failed to create a RealTime priority thread for ALSA” message when opening Renoise.

Second issue, I load in some of the demo songs and play them, but 0 sound at all comes out. Renoise shows that there is audio playing, but I hear nothing. I can play audio otherwise. I have all of the files that downloaded when I downloaded Renoise in my home directory.

What can I do to get sound + RealTime priority for ALSA?

Thanks, excited to get started.

R3.2.2 Windows 10
It seems that Renoise has an error adjusting the values of the slices of a sample. I am attaching an empty song with an instrument with a single sample with 5 slices:
crash_when_move_slices.xrns (643.9 KB)

To reproduce the error:

1. Load the song.
2. Go to Waveform for Instrument 1, Sample 1.
3. Move with the mouse the Slice 02 slightly around Slice 01. Or move Slice 01 around Slice 02. The following window will appear:
   

All tools are disabled. It’s an internal Renoise error. It will reproduce the error when you release the mouse.

This also causes errors when using from the API:
renoise.song().instruments[].samples[]:move_slice_marker(old_marker_pos,new_marker_pos)

It would be appropriate for other users to try this bug to confirm…

go keep it up, try be a 10

stop, broken thing - buy it again
you can’t stop, because - then what?

In this earlier topic that’s now locked, there is a handy tool to change automation points from points to linear:
Wholesale change automation from points to linear Help, Support & Bugs So I’ve recorded some multi parameter automation for a whole track in one take, but as it defaulted to Points, I would like to change all the recorded automation to Linear. As far as I can tell, it is not possible to change this all in one go, as multiple patterns can’t be selected. I have 6 parameters and as you can probably imagine, that’s a lot of faff to change to Linear. Is there a simple way to do this (without re-recording it), or does it need to be done with a tool? cheers

However this tool fails to install to Renoise 3.2.2.

I wonder if it’s possible to get a working version for the newest Renoise. Or if someone can point to what needs to be changed in the script to get it working, would be appreciated!

There’s a special place in hell reserved for whoever invented metatables.

I’ve just spent the best part of two days tugging at my flaxen locks trying to work out why the table returned by the __index of a metatable was being updated by indirect access instead of throwing an ‘attempt to index nil’ error for the public table when setting a value like this:

-- this table has no value for index (nil), but a metatable -- with an '__index' method to return a default value table_with_metatable[index].value = something -- expect that it would complain of no field 'value', but instead -- sets the metatable[index][value] variable to 'something'

So, it’s fetching the table at __index and then the dot operator is just sugar for [ ] on the table that lives at the index of the metatable. How infuriating. It makes somewhat more sense as i write it out here, but maybe i’m just stupid and this is obvious to everyone else. Zeus strike me down if i don’t find C++ references and pointers much easier to deal with. Just give us a ‘read only’ flag to set already rather than having to bloat out the code with loads of guff to deal with this insanity!! I just want to shadow a table of default values by setting and removing them in the top level of the code, it’s not much to ask.

The ‘solution’ mentioned here is merely a workaround:
Linux: R3.2.1 (Nov.7.2019) empty instrument plugin list Help, Support & Bugs Hello! New to Renoise, glad to be learning! My build of Renoise seems to be unable to find (or at least, display…?) any VST instruments I have on my system. I have tried fixing my $VST_PATH variable to no avail. The plugin dropdown list remains purely blank, with no text displayed at all. I installed v3.1.1, and my instruments are displayed and working as expected. So, for now, I’ve began using 3.1.1. I’m running Manjaro Linux, with the 5.0.5-arch1-1-vfio kernel. Thanks for any help, and lov…

Has anyone found a solution to this, or, is one on the way?

So this is a weird one. TAL Chorus (the windows 64-bit vst2 version) doesn’t show up in my list of effects plugins in Renoise. I’ve rescanned, I’ve reinstalled, I’ve double-checked that it’s in the folder with all my other VST plugins. It shows up in Reaper no problem, but I can’t seem to find it in Renoise. Anyone else had this issue?

This was fun to make, and a bit darker than my usual stuff. I did want to record the drums all in on the fly for a proper east coast feel but chickened out in the end! Need to get a MPC style pad controller.

Hi!

I recently worked some tracks in 3/4 :

I wanted to know if there are an option about this? Maybe I missed something. Because I was quite lost into patterns this time (ok, ok, I’m sooo used of 4/4…) but maybe there are some tips?
