Audio outside Renoise in Renoise

Renoise Forum - April 19, 2021 - 16:00

Not really sure this is a Renoise thing, so I posted this in this category.

I recently got myself a GoXLR Mini mostly to be able to mix audio when I’m streaming easier. The problem I have now (which I didn’t have pre GoXLR) is that when any audio is played outside Renoise I can see the VU-meter (in Renoise) react to that audio. Doesn’t matter if I use the GoXLR Asio Driver or DirectSound using different audio devices. The GoXLR creates a bunch of devices so you can control audio with the faders on the devide.

Before I used an old Focusrite Scarlet Solo audio interface and didn’t have this problem.

Anyone had any similar experience?

Up to no Good [Orchestral-ish?]

Was messing around with a snare drum sound, and suddenly this thing appears!

In hindsight some bass plucks would really amp up the sneak, how could I forget?

Spectrum analyzer/visual monitor with equal loudness contour overlay?

Renoise Forum - April 19, 2021 - 11:18

Hi all,

Still embarrassingly new to Renoise, and specifically to mixing & mastering. I recently learned about ISO 226:2003 and the concept of equal loudness contours; specifically, that not only do different parts of the frequency spectrum need to be played at different sound pressures (“physical” volumes) in order to be perceived as being equally loud (same “subjective” volume), but that this contour varies slightly (flattens off) as the reference volume increases. I’m also starting to develop the habit of using my eyes as well as my ears: for example, I only recently noticed that when viewing the spectrum in Renoise as a curve (rather than spectrogram), the frequency contribution of the currently highlighted track is actually overlaid on the total curve in the current track’s colour!

I get that there’s no such thing as a magical ISO 226:2003 mastering plugin, that it’s all subjective, and that it can even vary by genre - mids get a perceptual boost at higher volumes, so to a certain extent, mastering for a “target listening volume” is a thing, and explains why plugins like Fletchy-Muncher exist. Also that you shouldn’t just target full loudness across the spectrum across a whole track; again of course norms & expectations vary across genres, but dynamic variation is definitely a good thing!

That said, there does seem to be an obvious gap in Renoise’s built-in visualisation tools here. Anyone know of any tools that visually overlay one or more target equal loudness contours over the spectrum? Any monitoring VSTs that do something like this? Is it something that could be written in Lua as a Renoise script? (I haven’t played with scripting at all yet, I have no idea whether scripts have the ability to draw on the UI.) I recently laid down half a track, thought it was really well balanced, when when I went back the next day, realised the mix was all over the place: far too prominent snare, and the lead just completely drowned out the vocals. I know the concept of “tired ears” or “losing your ear” for a track is a thing, but maybe being able to see it better might help combat this.

My tracks may not be musical masterpieces, but I am trying to at least get the “best sounding” versions of my tracks out there, preferably without spending a ton of money on studio monitors I already had one bad experience releasing a track only to discover later that the bass completely swamps the mix in listening conditions other than my “studio” (AKA the spare bedroom at home), and I feel like being able to get a visual feel for this rather than relying purely on my ears & listening on a variety of headphones/speakers would help to reign in problem frequencies, or understand why something sounds muddy.

Remixed a Track by some famous Youtuber

Renoise Forum - April 19, 2021 - 09:40

I remixed a trance-track by Vincent Lee, who is some sort of famous youtuber/twitch-Streamer here in germany. His channel deals about music production with primary ableton but in this case he tested to work with FLStudio. As he could not finish his track, he uploaded the stems and asked the community to remix this track.

I did it.

With Renoise in Linux. Here’s the Result.

Plugins drain CPU before they're used

Renoise Forum - April 19, 2021 - 08:54

Strange behaviour - pluigns (like Vital for example) drains CPU before they start to be using. I mean - I have for example 10 Vital instruments and after I load song, CPU is instantly go to 99.9% and song plays choppy. BUT - when I play them one by one - CPU usage decreasing (every instrument/plugin activation - when it starts playing) and remains at lower level after instruments ends playing.

Why is it 99.9% anyway if I see in system that IDLE process is about 70% at the same time?

CPU: i7-8700k @ 4.7 GHz

Oscillator sync inside the sampler

Renoise Forum - April 18, 2021 - 23:34

Not sure if this is possible but is there a way to sync a wave to another wave’s pitch inside the sampler?
I think its called oscillator sync

For more information on what I’m referring to to:
(I skipped to the part where he shows what it sounds like)

en.wikipedia.org Oscillator sync

Oscillator sync is a feature in some synthesizers with two or more VCOs, DCOs, or "virtual" oscillators. As one oscillator finishes a cycle, it resets the period of another oscillator, forcing the latter to have the same base frequency. This can produce a harmonically rich sound, the timbre of which can be altered by varying the synced oscillator's frequency. A synced oscillator that resets other oscillator(s) is called the master; the oscillators which it resets are called slaves. There are two ...

Automation quantization?

Renoise Forum - April 18, 2021 - 16:21

Hi all,

I am wondering if there is a way to quantize live automation events. For instance, say I am using a repeater on my percussion bus and want my repeater mode and divisor events to only trigger/register every X number of lines. Do we have a way to do this? Via tool or natively?

Much thanks for any help!

[tool idea] Find & Layer?

Renoise Forum - April 18, 2021 - 00:09

Bear with me

I’m working on a song which source derives from a midi score generated in another program. Unfortunately, for some reason the first note event of the imported midi file doesn’t start at line number 0 in the pattern editor in Renoise, but at line number 16. To make matters ‘worse’ there are different time signatures in the midi structure and the complete song is spread over 64 length patterns, so pattern starts don’t necessarily equal the start of so say bridge, chorus, verses etc. Sections can start in the beginning, middle or end of a pattern.

In this particular song I’d like to emphasize certain notes from the beat track, doubling the kick with another sound in another track. So for every time the kick sounds, on the same line on another track I’d like to layer it with another sample. Being that the song structure is all jumbled, I can’t just manually do 1 pattern myself and simply copy this all throughout, it will go out of sync eventually, to much labor to fix everything .

Ideally I’d like a tool in which you can set a ‘reference’ instrument, track and note event key in the tool gui, for example; F#302 in track 2 and set the desired other instruments note event key & destination track, lets say C-407 in track 1. Bonus points if you could also set a pattern range. E.g; find & layer between pattern 4-8, this so you have more flexibility layering stuff across sections.

Pretty sure I’ve asked for something similar before, not sure any more if a tool came out or something like this already exists? If so please let me know!

edit;

@vvoois once made an Instrument Chainer tool ( New Tool: Instrument Chainer (Experimental) ), but it looks obsolete after the old forum migration and also was a realtime solution handy when creating, not something which scans a song file and offline generates the new input like I propose above.

Question about vst 3 and midi out

Renoise Forum - April 17, 2021 - 10:43

I’ve got a question about how exactly vst 3 uses midi out information
I am using the roland editor ( vst 3 ) for my integra , and it works fine ,usinge it only to send sysex info .
There is a bidirectional connection between the editor and the hardware over usb using the integra combined midi/audio usb interface .
The thing is that the midi connections are set up in the editor itself , an not via renoise midi in /out.
Whenever I make changes to the editor these are reflected on the hardware but renoise midi out indicator shows no activity .
So my questoin is , is vst3 handling midi separate from the host ?

Free Running LFO in an Instrument

Renoise Forum - April 16, 2021 - 20:13

This came to my attention on the Renoise Discord where someone wanted to do a freerunning LFO running on the filter modulation. Technically speaking this is not possible with the current functionality of the modulation feature. It works with having finite starting times and ending times, making it very digital in respect. To make it “analog” you’ll need to apply some concepts I posted in a previous topic and do some exploit trickery.

(1) Create a Doofer in the pattern matrix area where the Instrument Macro is being subsidized.

(2) Within the instrument, place an operand modulator into the filter (or any modulation).
(3) Attach the macro onto the operand.

(4) On the instrument’s FX matrix, copy and paste the newly created doofer into a FX chain.
(5) Attach a Doofer macro onto the instrument macro.

(6) Next add an LFO to the chain.
(7) Chain the LFO onto the Doofer macro you just modified.

And congrats you have yourself a free running LFO.

Note: I prefer utilizing operands because it gives you the flexibility to do Mathematic modulation. Modulating on the input parameter is fine.

Valhalla Delay VST3 keeps resetting delay time to default

Renoise Forum - April 16, 2021 - 18:22

Having some weird behavior with the VST3 version of Valhalla Delay. If I save and reload a project using this plugin, the delay time gets reset to the default (300 ms). Other parameters seem to be unaffected.

In this video I’ve just opened the project. You can see the plugin is disabled and the delay time is 89 ms. As soon as I enable the plugin, it’s reset to 300 ms.

This doesn’t seem to happen with the VST2 Version. I’ve included the project file. I’m using Renoise 3.3.0 and Valhalla Delay Version 1.8.2

Doofer and its content possibilities

Doofers should allow to add also other tools, not only device-effects (reverbs, delays, distortions, …), such for example: #Send. It will make smart routing far way more flexible
