Sidechain behaviour (maybe bug)
Hi! i was using the Sidechain device for sidechaining a comressor on a bass sound. The Sidechain is triggered by a kick. It works fine as long as the kick is playing. But then when no kick is playing for a moment and after the gain reduction meter of the comressor reaches 0 again, then it suddenly continues with normal compression triggered by the bass itself. But normally, if sidechain compression is active, this shouldn’t be the case and there should be no more compression until the kick starts playing again. I made a small video to see what i mean:

Mini game controller as keyboard short tool
Folks might be interested in a small game controller, the 8Bitdo Lite Bluetooth Gamepad.
8bitdo.com 8BitDo Lite | 8BitDo8BitDo Lite 8BitDo Lite is an ultra-portable controller made f
I’ve been using it with a drawing program, but I think it would work well with Renoise.
It fits in my hand easily (I actually hold it sideways) so I can draw with my right hand and manage brushes, undo, saving, with my left.
I use it with a small program called JoyToKey:

Fantasy computer keyboard
So I’ve been seriously thinking about creating a computer keyboard that resembles the Renoise virtual keyboard layout, which I think is pretty standard in a few DAWs. It’d be useful if you’re travelling and don’t want to drag your midi controller around, and could be a helpful tool for people who can’t afford said midi controllers, or children learning music production.
I was thinking it’d have a small touchpad at the bottom with a button on the side. The button would toggle it between working as a mouse, and a scroll wheel you can use to chance velocity on notes.
The picture is a bit rough, but hopefully it gives you an idea. Of course it’d have flashy lights (also a toggle), so you can really highlight the playable notes. The lights can also be used to highlight specific scales if you want to do that.
Would this be something worth pursuing?
Cheers!

Help with Custom Wave Synth (Renoise Tool)
Help please?
An FM/wavetable single-cycle synth sound generator we have in Renoise Tools by @It-Alien
Unlike the other Tool called Generate Waveform, this one does update the sound while you’re working on it, but it does not maintain the “Loop Mode”. Every time I generate a new sound, it also resets the looping mode, which slows dow the process substantially, because it has to be reset to “Forward” every time.
Is there a quick way to adjust the code somewhere in the Tool to make this not happen, like the other Generate Waveform Tool?

Linux: Jack Transport currently disabled (Renoise 3.4)
In new 3.4 Jack Transport is not available any more. Instead of the button there’s a text sayin
“Jack Transport: currently disabled”.
In 3.2.2 it still works.
Is there a setting I’m missing, is this on purpose or simply a bug?

Updates of “parameter is automated” highlights still not always right
This being fixed, the automation highlight updates almost works perfectly. But there’s still a minor problem in both the Automation List and the DSP lane. Video should explain.

Neuro... No Neuro - Take a Step Outside of Yourself
New video (in rudimentary 3D!!!) for the Neuro… No Neuro moniker on the Audiobulb Records YouTube channel. Tons of fun to make this - learned about basic 3D design, and used MANU Game Maker to create the 3D world which the NNN TV Head walks through. Video processing through Apple Motion and various shaders, finalized in VN. Track created in Renoise, of course!

Best oscilloscope plugin, PsyScope Pro? (Windows only)
Just discovered this awesome multi-track oscilloscope plugin that I must share with you people. If you love diving into your waveforms you should take a look at this plugin, just insert it on the tracks you want to appear in the oscilloscope and work its magic.
There’s also a free version but I couldn’t get it set up properly in Renoise as I think you have to send sidechain to specific sidechain inputs of the plugin which I don’t think is possible in Renoise.
Do you know other oscilloscope plugins this good?

► Renoise 3.4.1 & Redux 1.3.1 maintenance release
… to quickly get rid of the broken Cabinet and Convolver DSPs in all ARM builds. See below for details. On Windows there’s no need to update, but it also doesn’t hurt.
DownloadRegistered Renoise and Redux users can download the update, as usual, from:

I did spread the word ;)
An article I wrote about the Renoise 3.4 release was published on the German site amazona.de!

May your sales skyrocket. Long live Renoise.

Wishes for next releases
I know, I know, it is a bit early Please don’t get me wrong, very happy with 3.4, a real improvement for macos users. Thanks for that!
Lately though there came up some new ideas for improving Renoise:
- Sidechain having a color slider, just like in the convolver. This color slider of the convolver is very useful and the filters are just designed right IMO. So then you could attenuate your sidechain trigger signal. Middle should be 100% neutral, identical.
- A sidechain receiver device, as replacement for the MRatio workaround
- Note-off velocity support
- Dry/wet for all compressors
- Play/stop for Ableton link
And the usual suspects:
- Parallel container dsp device, also capable of mid/side, left/right splitting, including a sidechain-in
- Parallel VSTi instruments within the instrument section, so a system for passing note data thru the chains? Maybe there is an easier way, circumventing dsp lanes for midi…
- Routing a single track to multiple VSTis (might be solved with above point)
- 16 macros instead only 8
- dsp-really-disabled-mode (no pdc), maybe a different color of the checkbox, inverted or whatever
- Sidechain input for doofer
- Making quantize more nice in the advanced panel or some extra stuff here. Nice would be some kind of live preview
- macos: Support for appnap?, saving gpu load (read here)
LUA:
- Better drawing API for primitives
- Better mouse support, click on coordinate, on-click events with get-clicked-gui-element, dragging, etc. Maybe even dragging into GUI?
- Check for undo operations and/or vst_parameter.is_bubbling true/false or similar (topic here)
- Find_next_instrument_in_track() without changing the current track, moving the song position etc. Must be faast.
- Support for luarocks or similar. E.g. using sqlite.
- Real support for external dev tools, a.k.a. auto reloading on external save within the tool dir (e.g. using system’s directory watchers?). Maybe optional as a setting. Or even auto launching VSCode within the lua dir.
Please continue with your well thought ideas…

MacOS: Softube VST3 editor windows don't re-appear after closing
Running MacOS 12.3 and Renoise 3.4 on an Intel MBP.
I can open the editor window for a Softube VST3 effect once, but after I close the window, I can no longer re-open the editor window for that instance of the plug-in. Clicking the editor window button does nothing. If I remove and re-add the plug-in, the editor window again appears only the first time it’s opened.
Last week, Softube released a sweeping update to their plug-ins to add Metal and M1 support, so the problem might be related to their changes. The VST2 versions of the plug-ins behave correctly.
Here’s Renoise.log when I insert an instance of Softube Tape. After I opened the editor window and closed it, I clicked the “Ext. Editor” button a few more times, and the window did not appear.
Vst3Plugs: Instantiating: /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/Tape.vst3…

One-shot samples in main window
Another beginners question
Is it possible to trigger sliced loops (slices) as one-shot in the main pattern window? I know it can be done in the phrase editor, but it could be handy in the main pattern windows also.

Track comment device (mockup)
Hi, I have a feeling this have been suggested before, or maybe it was a tool of some sort back in the day… could not find it now. Anyway - I’d really love to have a (native, preferrably) device like this:
Yay?
EDIT: And I guess there would be no need for an enable/disable switch like in the mockup of course
