Sending midi to the VSTi and VST fx at the same time?

Renoise Forum - January 1, 2022 - 05:30

Hello and happy new year!

So, i have a track which controls a vst instrument. At the same time there’s a vst fx on that track which needs to receive the same midi data(midi triggers specifically). So far i’ve figured only way: to create an Alias of that vst fx and send a duplicate of the midi data to it. Is there a way to avoid this? Thanks!

Using SP404SX with Renoise

Renoise Forum - December 31, 2021 - 07:57

I brought my SP404sx to a friend’s house and he plugged it into his focusrite scarlett amp (same one as mine) and hooked up a guitar cable to the sampler (that’s just what I call the cable, can’t remember the exact name) and was able to play notes in Logic without any extra setup. I picked up a guitar cable today and routed it to the the guitar port with the cable and plugged it into the phones jack on the SP404sx hoping that it’d work seamlessly with renoise, but it doesn’t detect it on the program.

I have the settings correctly in renoise to pick up and record sounds into renoise from the sampler. When I play notes from the sampler the light on the the guitar knob on my amp turns flashes from green to red continuously and while the sound works perfectly with headphones/cable plugged in, I can’t get the samples to record directly into the program. I’m still sort of a noob to using hardware with software, so any help would be highly appreciated, thanks. The picture attached shows my current setup.

Anybody have a MiDiPLUS X6mini Keyboard?

Renoise Forum - December 30, 2021 - 01:56

I’m stupid and can’t figure out some things from reading the manual and looking online.

I’m hoping to post some questions here about it if anyone has one and understands it better than I.

No audio output in Manjaro Linux

Renoise Forum - December 29, 2021 - 14:54

This is my first time installing Renoise and after hours of experimenting and research i just can’t get any sound to be output.

I couldn’t get it working with bare ALSA, so i installed QjackCTL and started that server and selected jack as the output device, to no avail. I followed the instructions to install and run Qjack properly, but i don’t feel confident that it’s actually installed correctly.

Through all my experiments, i kept a demo song playing, and Renoise displays (what i assume is) the output audio on the graph as normal, so it seems that my audio is working fine from Renoise’s perspective.

Does anyone have any tips for diagnosing this issue? I would settle for getting this to work with either ALSA or jack for now, even if it’s high latency… I just want output.

Issue with sending notes from two different tracks to the same plugin

Renoise Forum - December 28, 2021 - 12:22

Hi.
Totally new to Renoise. I have two tracks sending notes to the same instrument(multichannel drum machine). 1st track triggers kick, 2nd triggers hi hat. Weird thing is that kick triggers only when there is a trigger for hi hat as well. If i swap the tracks order in Renoise edit window then it’s other way around…how do i fix this? Thanks!

Formula Device Variables

Renoise Forum - December 28, 2021 - 08:56

Is there any way to declare static variables that persist between cycles in the formula device? I’m working on implementing chaotic attractors for modulation, and being able to store variables internally would make things a lot easier.

Additionally, if there is a way to do it, what scope do the variables live at? Are they global and able to be referenced by code in other instances of Formula, or are they private and completely sandboxed to the specific device?

Thanks in advance!

New Tool (3.3.2) Advanced Step Composer v1.0 build 105

Renoise Forum - December 27, 2021 - 11:35
Advanced Step Composer. Description

Advanced Step Composer or A.S.C. is a stepper note injector, with an acidic sequencer approach. It is a big evolution of the Acid Step Sequencer tool. Choose a number of steps between 2 and 32. You can manipulate the notes and all their related values. Use the Master Step (“M” switch) for manipulation in selective groups or each step individually. You will be able to import, edit and delete data. Experiment with your notes quickly from a advanced sequencer panel. Use the power of randomization to get more creative in no time. This tool will add hours of fun building your patterns!

Main features
  • Up to 32 steps.
  • Line jump (click inside the “Step X” name).
  • Marker (with green lighting).
  • Individual editing of each step.
  • Master step for group editing (red step).
  • Ability to auto-adjust the “number of lines of the pattern” from the LNS Value of the Master Step (press [CTRL + Click] from increase or decrease the LNS Value).
  • Direct control of: note, instrument index, volume, panning, delay, sfx parameter and sfx amount values.
  • Manipulation the number of lines for the steps.
  • Manipulation of the note-off for the steps.
  • Four selection modes: all, odd, even or custom (with 32-step panel with various selection modes).
  • Selective transposition of notes.
  • Randomization of values (all), with range capacity and number of steps.
  • Injection of the effect and quantity in lower empty lines.
  • Selective cleaning.
  • Slider bars with “set to 0” (double click).
  • Data import/load.
  • Safe! It need Renoise “edit mode” enabled to edit.
  • Work with Profiles!
Keyboard Commands
  • [SPACE] Restart/stop song.
  • [ALT SPACE] Continue/stop song.
  • [CTRL Z] undo.
  • [CTRL Y] redo.
  • [CTRL SHIFT A] close window.
  • *[CTRL SHIFT A] open window (Assignable: Preferences/Keys:Global/Tools/Acid Step Sequencer)
Access
  • Renoise: Tools/ ~Advanced Step Composer…
GUI

The GUI is constructed so that the tool appears as integrated as possible with Renoise.

How to use it?

“A step” is defined by the triggering of a single note. The note occupies one line, and it can have more lines below to lengthen its duration. A.S.C. is capable of injecting a specific number of notes with a specific distribution by steps. Choose a specific number of steps, insert the notes and then manipulate all their values ​​from the tool, through each step panel. You can view between 2 and 32 equal panels. Master one, and you will master them all.
It is important to know how to control the Master Step (red panel), by pressing the “M” switch. Master Step allows you to selectively manipulate all the parameters together. Choose from All, Odd, Even or Custom for step selection.

The tool can work back and forth. That is, manipulate the data from the tool, or import data from the Renoise pattern (the selected note column). The “Import data” button allows you to readjust the tool to already written notes (only note lines and their associated note-offs).

Furthermore, A.S.C. allows specific manipulation of the effect parameters and their amounts. You can inject the values ​​down, leaving the pattern ready for a more granular edit later.

The highlight is the selective randomization panel. This allows the user to be much more creative when he is not able to be. Use the randomization of any parameter to increase your inspiration shots. A.S.C. will help you find that step-sequenced note pattern that you never would have thought of!

Background

This tool has been built based on the Acid Step Sequencer tool, being an evolution of it, between April and November 2020, and has been launched in December 2021.

Due to other projects I have not had time to develop a profile package for direct upload. If any user is willing to create folders with a multitude of profiles, they can send them to add them in a possible next version.

Direct profile loading allows you to switch “on the fly” between hundreds of note step profiles, which can be sorted by folders according to musical style.

This tool is free. You can take the LUA code and manipulate it, as long as you mention the original authorship!
Enjoy it!

Midi from Vcv2 = Homeless Instrument?

Renoise Forum - December 27, 2021 - 03:20

So i’m triggering samples in renoise from vcv2 vst,
it works just fine with midi routing from vcv instrument to a drumkit instrument, super fun !

However I can’t seem to find a way to make the drumkit instrument play on a track,
it’s only playing on the master track

Had a similar problem with 303 vst’s, got it working by entering a note in the track but no luck here

Am i missing something?

Latency issue with sequencer

Renoise Forum - December 26, 2021 - 22:06

I’m using the new Korg SQ-64 sequencer with Renoise and got their MIDI clocks synced up. But when I record patterns into Renoise - even if they’re right on the grid in the sequencer - there’s always some delay in the delay column from like 40-70.

I was hoping to use the step offset feature in the SQ to come up with grooves but it’s kind of pointless if everything will be recorded with this long delay added to it anyway.

Any tips?

I had my block size at 256 & 32 and happened both ways.

Pattern variable

Renoise Forum - December 26, 2021 - 19:20

Hi!

Could you please introduce a variable to pattern effects. For example YAA would refer to probability command with the variable AA. The variable AA could be controlled through Macro / LFO / Envelopes. This would enable cool effects like increasing probability of notes. This would be useful in introducing new melody note by note, until the whole melody would be played.
Thanks!

No Audio on Linux Mint 20.2

Renoise Forum - December 23, 2021 - 20:36

Hello,

I recently switched to Linux Mint from macOS and love it so far. The only program giving me real trouble is renoise.

I’m able to install and launch renoise, ALSA successfully detects my audio card and creates an ALSA RT thread. When I press play no audio comes out of either my headphones or laptop speakers. The audio output is set to hw:1,0 (CS4208 Analog). I don’t have the same problem on Mixxx which leads me to believe it’s not an ALSA issue. I also tried setting the audio output to 3+4 instead of 1+2 which I saw on another thread but it did not work.

Is there anything else I can try to get my sound working?

Nick

Bought Reason, regret it. Kinda just adrift with the hobby at the moment. Hoped going to something I used to love would help but, alas, it did not.

Have listed it on eBay, happy to do a direct sale through PayPal though:

It is a great bit of kit and on my modest laptop it runs buttery smooth.

Midi Out Timing/Jitter

Renoise Forum - December 21, 2021 - 23:24

Hi,

First post. I’ve spent a few hours with the renoise demo on my windows laptop using only the onboard samplers and fx and it got me excited.
But in the end I was hoping for it to be my new main midi sequencer for triggering my hardware samplers and synths. So right now I have it installed on my studio PC hooked up via MIDI to an akai sampler and unfortunately the midi jitter is really bad.
I am coming from reaper and reaper’s midi out timing isn’t the tightest either, but after a few tweaks (e.g. lowest ASIO buffers) and avoiding a few features (e.g. no item looping) i can make it work ok. Also I spread stuff out to several samplers, each with their own midi port, which helps a lot, too.

But the test I’m doing right now is a simple monophonic 1/16th note pattern sent to an akai s3200 and it sounds all over the place. (both on USB MIDI and the MIDI OUT of my RME AIO, makes no difference)
Unfortunately the demo does not let you use asio, so I can’t check if that’s the issue.

Am I doing something wrong here? I found a few other threads discussing midi timing issues with renoise, but they’re old. Also I see videos on youtube where people are sequencing their hardware with renoise and it sounds fine.
I was ready to buy a licence, esp. since the pricing is very fair, but the midi jitter I am currently getting makes it useless for my application.
Any help? thx
