Mechanical Lego Drum (track) Sequencer / Robot Musician
This is too cool (or ‘awesome’ for you youngsters )

As I commented on that page, he has actually built what could be a “mechanical Lego musician”, if the output piezo’s were / could be converted to MIDI outputs !

Redux not showing in Linux (pop!OS)
A helpful commenter suggested to create a .vst folder so I could access Redux in Renoise from there.
Did that, and I can access it with Renoise. However, it does not open any discernible actual distinct program. Like a keyboard with Redux on it and all its options as seen in the beginner tutorials, it just shows me folders full of filter chains, synths, etc.
Why is there no program that I can run, like Renoise is?
I originally posted this question in a post from 11 years ago, but I decided to post it as a new topic, hoping I’ll find some solution.

MuTaNT•BReaKS••••#14 :scream_cat:
The people have spoken!
MuTaNT•CaTS•LoVe•FReeDoM
What: the latest installment of the most disorganized renoise song compilation/competition
When: now! til Feb 1… specifically 11:59:59pm on 2/1/23 in whatever time zone you happen to find yourself
Where: here, duh
Why: because renoise is awesome and you are awesome and we must show the world
How:
•make a NEW song with renoise (no old tracks, please)
•post the song in this thread
•winners will be selected randomly from the top voted songs (top 14? top 14.)
Prizes!!!: who knows? anyone want to throw down? I’ve got an extra (unwashed/unworn) “renoise… create more music OR ELSE” T-shirt designed and printed by @TNT I could throw in to sweeten the pot…
see here (he made two. I’ll gift the unworn one. no zensphere cooties, I promise )
Rules: NO RULEZ!
ok, some rules:
•song made in renoise (obviously)
•song must contain at least one cat sample of your choosing
•free reign to use VSTI, external effects and processing, but the finished song must exist as an xrns - external mastering is OK
•under 7 minutes
•ONE (final) song entry per person/collaboration - fine to post multiple songs in this thread, but you have to choose your entry by the deadline
•extra points for submitting your xrns (+3)
•extra points for doing it all in renoise without plugins (+2)
•extra points for vocals that YOU sang (not spoke) (+2)
•extra points for collaboration (+3)
Write a great song and extra points won’t matter!
Voting thread will be created after 2/1/23

Click and pops sound during recording audio
Hi guys,
I have sporadic click and pops during my jam recording of exernal bass synths.
Can be a problem related to high sample rate (I usually use 48k) ?
or maybe can be related to my iRig pro duo audio interface converters?
I have noticed that during my recording CPU % arrives to 20.
I use a new Macbook Pro M1 with 16 Gb
Thanks in advance

Diva: saving presets
Renoise 3.4.2, Kubuntu 22.10 (Linux).
I have a VST3 instance of U-He Diva loaded. When I click on the “Save” button within Diva to save a preset, the save dialog does not come up no matter what I do. The same thing happens with the VST2 version.
On the other hand, if I run Renoise from a terminal, for both the VST2 and VST3 versions of Diva, when I open the UI, it glitches as if it is trying to settle on a final size, in other words it gets stuck in a resizing loop. When I close it and reopen it again, the UI loads up fine from then on. And as for saving presets, the “Save” button on Diva’s UI does open the save preset dialog, and I can save presets without issues.
The TL;DR is that when Renoise is started as normal, Diva’s save preset dialog does not appear, and if I run Renoise from a terminal, after an initial UI glitch, the save preset dialog does appear. I can recreate this every time.

Ability to bind "Jump to next/previous section" in pattern matrix
Basically title. These hotkeys are bindable, and work in the pattern editor, the pattern sequencer and even the mixer, but there is no way to bind them for the pattern matrix, where I personally at least, try to use them a ton.
Also, there is a bug for binding these functions in the mixer. The listed hotkeys for them in the mixer is always the same as the pattern editors hotkeys, however changing the pattern editors hotkey doesnt actually change the hotkey you need to use.

Python Script:sliced beats .xrni to .mid
I’ll admit this is a very quick and rough hack written for my own use, but I thought I’d share it as a starting point for others to work from. It seems to work with Renoise 3.3.2 – as it is, it works for me, but isn’t particularly robust – in my renoise by default the first slice is midi note 37, so it assumes that the slices are mapped one per semitone starting from 37. It assumes things are laid out in the Instrument.xml as they are with the current versions of renoise (3.3.2) and redux (1.3.2).
It would be nice to be able to drag and drop midi for a sliced break into the DAW. This is a poor-man’s hack of a workaround: a simple Python script, that currently calls csvmidi to convert to midi It opens the .xrni, extracts the length of the clip in samples, and the sample position of each slice (assuming that each slice ends where the next begins), and produces a .csv file to be input into csvmidi (midicsv and csvmidi convert between .mid files and a textual CSV representation).
e.g. If I load "AUSP - Loops - 85BPM - London 2044 1 .wav’ (from Airwave’s Ultimate Pack), and slice in Renoise to produce AUSP_London2044_001.xrni, then (noting by ear that this is 16 beats at 85bpm – I’m not going to try to write code that guesses, as a file of this length could easily be 32 beats at 170bpm)
python3 slice_xrni_to_mid.py 16 AUSP_London2044_001.xrni
will produce
AUSP_London2044_001.mid
that you can drag into your DAW.
As for python, any recent version of python3 will do – on Windows, this means either the official python distribution (provided it’s in your PATH), or cygwin, or anaconda, or WSL2, and on macos I think a new enough python is bundled. Then you need csvmidi from MIDICSV: Convert MIDI File to and from CSV
(It should be easy enough to modify it to use a python standard midi file module instead of midicsv)

Octave Toggle for Sample-Modulation Key Tracker
Hi Team!
Somewhat niche suggestion here, but I suspect it wouldn’t be too difficult to implement. In the Renoise Sampler (and likewise in Redux) there is a Key Tracker device and it’d be very useful if it had an option to toggle octave-only tracking like the Key Tracker Meta Device in the DSP chain.
I use Renoise for microtonal music (via assigning pitches to velocity) but I still use note octaves so that I don’t have to assign every single pitch a unique 0-7F velocity, it’d be enormously helpful to me (and I’m sure others too) it’d be enormously helpful if I could toggle the key tracker to follow only octave so that note data within the octave doesn’t have to be C in order to only get the octave. (it IS possible to make an octave tracker with a key tracker from C0 thru B9, an operand, and 10 single-octave key trackers from C(n) thru B(n)) but with this utility that’d be 11 devices less and make the workflow way easier whenever tracking just octave from the key.

SOLVED - Pianoteq VST not found by Renoise
The reason was: the .so file was a symlink from my /usr/lib/vst pointing to the file in my pianoteq directory. An actual copy of the file works.
Please consider this a bug report, along with all the other “windows-isms” that make file management/navigation pretty much unusable, or extremely awkward at best.
