Hey there,

I can use WASAPI in Reaper with 6ms delay. I can record audio with my microphone. If I use WASAPI in Renoise, the In-Device is not selectable. (Screenshot)

I have found a few tools that /sorta/ do this.

With Paketti I can set a shortcut to do it, and then 1 by 1 go through each instrument and press it. That’s great, and a time saver.

With DefaultSampleSettings tool I can do this for everything, but it also impacts settings besides interpolation.

I only want to impact interpolation.

Any tools exist for this? Or does anyone have any ideas?

The reason I want this: when I load a oldschool song, like from *.it, *.xm, *.s3m, *.mod, etc. I want it to sound CRUNCHY BABY!

By default the interpolation is Cubic,. and I can’t find where to change it. If it’s some setting somewhere, that’d be great! But I don’t think it is.

Any ideas? Thoughts? I have done some searching. I’m not against writing my own tool, but I can’t find the source for the DefaultSampleSettings one to rip out everything but interpolation…

Thanks all

Nowadays it usually takes some time off, but I eventually make a track.
This one’s a self contained tribute to pyrotechnics (if you listen to the end, anyway).
I’ll post it here, since very rarely does anyone outside of listening circles listen. Let me know if it’s for you.
Appreciate all your guys lovely work with the very impressive Renoise tool.

Is there any way to turn off the unwanted event in the widget ?.
I would like to disable the “mouse wheel” event in the popup widget.

I’m adding features to an instrument sorting tool from Joule and right now I’m trying to collect housekeeping info from the used sample instruments inside of the song comments window;

Here are snippits of the added code;

function append_housekeeping_info_to_song_comments() local comments = renoise.song().comments -- Start with the song title and artist local song_title = renoise.song().name local artist_name = renoise.song().artist local housekeeping_info = string.format("Title: %s\nArtist: %s\n\nSample Housekeeping Info:\n", song_title, artist_name) for i, instrument in ipairs(renoise.song().instruments) do if #instrument.samples > 0 then local instrument_info = string.format("Instrument %d: %s\n", i, instrument.name) -- Append bit depth and sample rate local sample = instrument.samples[1] if sample.sample_buffer.has_sample_data then local bit_depth = sample.sample_buffer.bit_depth local sample_rate = sample.sample_buffer.sample_rate instrument_info = instrument_info .. string.format(" Bit Depth: %d-bit, Sample Rate: %d Hz\n", bit_depth, sample_rate) -- Append total sample duration local total_duration = 0 for _, sample in ipairs(instrument.samples) do if sample.sample_buffer.has_sample_data then total_duration = total_duration + (sample.sample_buffer.number_of_frames / sample.sample_buffer.sample_rate) end end instrument_info = instrument_info .. string.format(" Total Duration: %.2f s\n", total_duration) -- Append stereo/mono info local channels = sample.sample_buffer.number_of_channels local stereo_mono = (channels == 2) and "Stereo" or "Mono" instrument_info = instrument_info .. string.format(" Channels: %s\n", stereo_mono) -- Append sample memory size local total_size = 0 for _, sample in ipairs(instrument.samples) do if sample.sample_buffer.has_sample_data then total_size = total_size + (sample.sample_buffer.number_of_frames * sample.sample_buffer.number_of_channels * (sample.sample_buffer.bit_depth / 8)) end end instrument_info = instrument_info .. string.format(" Memory Size: %.2f KB\n", total_size / 1024) -- Append loop points if looping is enabled if sample.loop_mode ~= renoise.Sample.LOOP_MODE_OFF then local loop_start = sample.loop_start / sample.sample_buffer.sample_rate local loop_end = sample.loop_end / sample.sample_buffer.sample_rate instrument_info = instrument_info .. string.format(" Loop Points: %.2fs - %.2fs\n", loop_start, loop_end) end end -- Append the info to the housekeeping summary housekeeping_info = housekeeping_info .. instrument_info .. "\n" end end -- Update the song comments with the housekeeping info table.insert(comments, housekeeping_info) renoise.song().comments = comments end renoise.tool():add_menu_entry { name = "Instrument Box:Sample Info...:Update Housekeeping Info in Song Comments", invoke = function() append_housekeeping_info_to_song_comments() end }

Using it does add info into the song comments window, but it seems to be capped at a certain amount of characters. At first I thought this was just a limitation of how much can be written down there, but when manually inserting characters I can add much more then what can be inserted from the tool. Also after generating the content for it, I can’t seem to delete, select or edit any of the text.

Is this a renoise bug or expected behavior?

I recently purchased a Polyend Tracker plus and was so excited to have a tracker in a box.

It turned into a nightmare as I have never used a more unfinished buggy device in my entire life. The biggest issue was live recording and the way off commamds are handled. Samples would spread all over the place into multiple tracks, even midi tracks where samples don’t trigger. The off commamd is a nightmare making it impossible to record faster melodies in 16/1 timing.

I suggested they should take a leaf out of Renoise’s book by having an option to disable note off but to no avail. Anyway I am returning it for a refund.

I really wish Renoise would release a hardware tracker. That would be a dream come true, or even design and sell a chassis with buttons and a screen that accomodates a Raspberry Pi as it can run the linux version of Renoise.

Food for thought.

Hello.
I have a very specific question about MIDI for anyone who understands. I have been trying to send program changes to a VST3 instrument, the Korg modwave native, for quite a while. I would especially love to do so from Renoise. The modwave native has a funny way of organizing patches, but to put it shortly, the manual claims that it exposes 64 patches (“performances”) from a preselected performance bank (“set list”) which correspond to program change messages 1-64.
It doesn’t respond to normal program change messages from Ableton, Bitwig, or Renoise. M2 command with proper syntax (I checked), *Instr. MIDI Control program change messages 1-64, all fail, while they work fine on the Wavestation VST. None of these workstations seem to be able to provoke the described behavior, except Cakewalk, in a strange way that I do not get.
Cakewalk was able to expose a CC for “Program” which worked for automating the patch change.
Problem is I don’t understand the notation here in the MIDI menu… When I assign an automation in Synth Rack, I get a big list of named automation targets, then a list of CCs. They are notated like MIDI CC 11|77 - MIDI CC 11|119, MIDI CC 11|120 - MIDI CC 12|32 , and at the end, MIDI CC 15|116 - Program.
“Program” seems to send a patch change. It’s at the end of a dropout list with other CCs notated the same way - it goes from MIDI CC 15|116 to MIDI CC 15|129 and then “Program” at the very, very end. What message is actually being sent? 129 is a number outside of MIDI’s normal range, no? What am I looking at?

Ya’ll probably don’t like this idea but, let’s combine Raggacore/Breakcore with splittercore and noise. I present to you Splitteragg/Splitterbreak, Splitterbreak or Splitteragg. It is an extreme genre of electronics that has a BPM ranging from 350BPM to 100,000BPM. It works by cutting the breaks and making rushes with all the samples and with synthesizers like digital hardcore and ragga vocals with normal speed and a lot of noise glitches and sounds made with a computer. I don’t know if some artist is interested in making a song of my new genre, Since I’ve heard that Renoise is a good DAW for Breakcore and similar genres. Tell me ya’ll opinions.

Back in the day (03?), there was this great little piece of software called “cell synth” I believe. Which would allow you to FM (PM) any piece of audio with any other piece of audio. I’d love to see something similar implemented in renoise, as it could give us native FM/PM, greatly expanding the potential of our native tools’ sonic palette.

The way I am envisioning it would be as a dsp device, which would take the carrier as the incoming audio stream, and the modulator as a signal routed to it via the sidechain device (if that actually routes an audio rate signal), or perhaps via a send device. The Phase Modulator device would then, well, modulate the phase of the carrier by the modulator, and the resulting audio would be passed through.

This would preserve the semi modular nature of renoise’s audio architecture, and could allow for use of phase modulation within instruments via the instrument fx chains, or, perhaps crucially, of entire audio streams via the mixer fx section. This could be a powerful feature that (to my limited awareness, lol) does not readily exist in other daws, and could open up a lot of territory for sonic exploration.

@taktik, would this be possible to implement? Any technical hurdles I’m not seeing? I think this could satisfy a lot of the renoise native synthesis enthusiasts out there, and would add a lot of power to our capabilities in a relatively straightforward fashion.

A quick mockup could look something like this

Thoughts? Feasibility?

This is probably a dumb idea… but ya know how tools like ozone have waveform editors where you can edit transients and peak-y things? Renoise effectively can do that as well so would it be valid to use Renoise for editing transient peaks before further processing in finished tracks?

hello,
how is the number of beats measured in the pattern, sorry it may be a stupid question…
how to record live on renoise and another question how to make mixes…
thank you to the renoise community
see you soon

Try not to think too hard about the cover. Finished this the other night. Still waiting on my new pair of headphones after blowing the speakers in my last pair, so this was done on my bedroom monitors. Have no idea how it sounds in the cans. I’m sure it’s fine. Still feel kind of sick from work. All that grease isn’t good for your stomach. Whatever. Thank you for your time.

I decided to start using Renoise a couple of years ago after only using linear DAWs. Once I got the hang of it I started working on an album and this is it. I hope you guys like it.

I know that there are software programs that allow you to convert audio files into musical scores.

For example, you record a live piano piece and render it into a WAV audio file. So you use a program to get the score directly.

The resulting file, whether MIDI or XML or whatever, could be loaded into another software, such as MUSESCORE or similar for review.

Do you have any experience with this kind of software?

I have seen the paid ANTHEMSCORE that does these things. Do you know this or other programs? How well do they work?

I find this topic very interesting…

The idea is to be able to compose directly with the piano (recording directly from the brain) and to obtain the score on paper quickly through the program (being able to print it on paper).

Hello to all.

I would like to have your opinion on the videos on this YouTube channel.

If there are any of you who like this kind of ambient/video mix, what scene, ambiance or landscape would you like to see?
And what do you think of those already posted?
Do you have any advices on how to improve something?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Good evening everyone.

Trustpilot Digital River is rated "Bad" with 1.2 / 5 on Trustpilot

Do you agree with Digital River's TrustScore? Voice your opinion today and hear what 1,406 customers have already said.

Lot of plugin devs were affected (most of them already switched provider):
https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=612462&start=150

Also purchases seem to be affected, do not buy anything via shareit/digital river or other payment providers by them.

Quote from here: https://www.thelayoff.com/post/@osm+1uSOXN0J

Its a simple scheme what Barry Kasoff is doing here: purchase DigitalRiver in August for a bargain put lots of debt on it, to pay out money to himself fire a lot of employees without severance lie to customers "we'll delay payouts" (he never planned to pay out anything) lie to employees "everything is fine" finally, after stealing as much customer money as possible, let DR go bankrupt and walk away hundreds of millions of US$ richer than before...

There is an option in the sample recorder to Create a new instrument on each take, and this is a version of that sample.
I was just watching a video on the E-mu SP-1200, and it seems that many people are using it in a workflow where each prepared sample is simply transposed and adjusted to become an instrument to be played.
I found this to be a simple but powerful workflow.
For such a workflow, for example, it would be useful to have a Create a new sample on each take option in the sample recorder.
I hope you will consider adding this feature.

HI all,

I have installed several VSTs on linux using yabridge and wine64 on my Ubuntu laptop. They all work well except the Korg Modwave VST (the only one that is important to me!!).

I can load the modwave VST using Renoise, and even play sounds. I can open the VST GUI from renoise, but the GUI does not work / respond to anything : if i click on a knob or whatever, nothing happens. So I cannot to anything with it.

Has anyone succeeded in using this VST on Linux ??? Or run into similar problems ??
