I now have converted a complete Renoise 3.1.1 project to Bitwig 2.5, using the same amount of FX (maybe even a bit more demanding), same synths and so on. Now it turns out that the audio overall performance in Renoise seems to be much worse than in Bitwig. I also realized this kind of performance loss after upgrading from macOS 10.9 already. Surely it also is related to the GUI, scaled to 4K by CPU here (often using one whole i7 core constantly). The same project in Renoise and 40ms latency easily will start to stutter at a lot of parts, while it plays almost constantly stutter free in Bitwig at 5.3ms latency (!!!). Also the Bitwig GUI is not yet known as being super performant. But this is really a very huge difference. JFYI, I don’t want to bash Renoise here, but instead show up some problems and looking forward to a bugfix release.
Also I often thought about some general denormalization techniques? It seems that some plugins will behave worse in Renoise than in Bitwig. For example, what about an option to add very, very quiet constant noise to a track, or as option for a plugin, so denormals can’t happen?
Since you are working on a new GUI, I don’t post any issues related to the current GUI, only it seems to slow down a lot of VST GUIs, which always will be displayed with fast 60fps in Bitwig.

I wanted to inquire by those who are more experienced about how the hexadecimal numbering system is incorporated in Renoise. I had always heard that Renoise used it and its party of what piqued my interest in this software in the first place. I was trying to understand how its implemented so that I could try to use it with the Lua scripting capabilities. I figured it could be quite useful in terms of developing some novel granular synthesis types of retriggered sequenced sounds.

Anyone have any general thoughts on how the hexadecimal system functions in Renoise? how it can be leveraged with Lua scripting? And how it may help in terms of generating granular types of sounds?

Hi,

what is the XX in the pattern channel aftertouch M3 XX YY command? The manual says, only YY is the value, but in the screenshot below you see always a 01 at XX. In my testsong there only is a 00 though. What for is the XX?

YY has the range 00-7F, is this correct?

Thanks.

Edit: I think I mixed up, sorry.

A wink and nod to one of my favorite composers and one of my favorite movies. I created this entirely in Renoise and then bounced it and mixed/mastered in Reason 10. Thanks for the listen.

Just how cheap can a professional music setup possibly be these days?
Im looking for the absolute cheapest possible working renoise setup which includes an audio interface, monitor headphones and either a midi keyboard or drumpads.

Im hoping to find a way to make professional music with only 200 euros to spend.
I havent found a way to do it for 200 euros yet, but came close by excluding an audio interface in the setup.

Below are some cheap setups I believe will work ( maybe with no vsti so samples+effects only for the cheapest one ). I still havent managed to do it for 200 euros.

Samsung NC10 160GB, Intel Atom, 1.6GHz, Netbook Working Condition - 46.30 euros

Audio Technica ATH-M30x Closed Back Headphones (NEW) - 63.67 euros

Renoise Digital Audio Workstation
Full version license (3.1 - 4.1) - 68 euros

Akai lpk 25 mini midi keyboard - 28.93

TOTAL = 206.90 EUROS, 178.76 british pounds, 233.77 us dollars

It seeems it may be possible to get a reasonably good setup for close to 300 euros…

Dell Latitude E6220, Core i5-2520M @ 2.50GHz, 4GB, 160GB HDD Win 10 12.5" - 98.44 EUROS

Behringer UM2 U-Phoria Audiophile 2x2 USB Audio Interface Studio DJ - 46.31 euros

Akai lpk 25 mini midi keyboard - 28.93

OR

Korg padKONTROL USB MIDI Drum Pad Studio Controller - 57.88 euros

TOTAL = 305.35 EUROS ( with Akai lpk 25 mini midi keyboard ), 263.81 british pounds, 344.98 us dolla
or
TOTAL = 334.30 EUROS ( with Korg padKONTROL ), 288.82 british pounds, 377.68 us dollars

I wondered why I hadn’t put any of my finished tracks out there for a decade. It occurred to me there is only one reason. I do not know what the accepted levels for frequency occupiers. I’ve searched… Please assist me, but the agreement seems unseen and I reject totally the idea that it is up to me. Yes, it is. I want to fit in (that was a joke). Here are my burning questions, but ultimately they come under the same one. If you have a sound and its peaking within a certain range, what db average should that range be? What does the industry expect? ‘Should’ is not a trap. I want guidelines.

I’m open to making changes afterwards, of course. But lets say you have your kick drum at x, how does everything else relatively compete? And what are the standard places to ‘place’ said instruments, e.g vocals in the centre, hats wide, etc. I’m tired of trawling forums with the answer being ‘it depends’. Sure, so after what it depends on, whats the bottom line?

Kick
Snare
Hat
Crash
Sub bass
Bass mid lead
Lead
Vocal
And more!

and/or talk specifically in Hz.

Share links as this seems to be an obvious question I can’t find the answer to.

Can I please ban ‘it depends’ answers unless they are resolved with a firm expectation? What are the industry standards or tendencies?

If you really need a genre bracket to help me specifically, I make dubstep, but I want this question to be applicable across the genre trap. Share best practice.

When searching breakbeat hardcore I came across this guy HappyMilkshakeMan who used to be on this forum up until around 2011 I think. He posted a mix of his tunes (Tunes Of Mine, Nu-oldskool 'rave' (mixed)) which I was interested in hearing but the link is long gone. I know it’s a long shot but maybe someone here downloaded it or something?

Hi all,

I have been using linux for many years for everything but music. I plan to setup an old computer for renoise in the upcoming weeks. I’d like to use it one Linux rather than windows. I tried one year ago to use windows VST on linux. After many many hours of trial, it finally never worked.
So for those who have suceeded : what is the easiest way to use windows VST with the linux version of renoise ? Did you use a particular linux distribution optimized for multimedia ?

Thanks a lot

tl;dr

i fully believe in an economy based on three dollar bills and thirty three cents, it’s the only way

in this presentation i’ll demonstrate how renoise can be used for agile development in a scrum asd 3.33% organic coffee blend dissociative framework environment

thx 1138 for coming to my tedxtalk
pls like, activate more cow bell and subscribe

hey guys, my name is [lmao] but you can call me daemonendays

i’ve been clean of renoise for the last couple years but recently relapsed and the hex code got the best of me

i’ve scraped the bottom of the well and this is all I’ve got left:

i’ve come to the realization that renoise wasn’t the problem and maybe i’m just depresh but with the help of a little shigeto mantra and (surprisingly, a lot of self confidence in hacking my way about with) a few fl studio mobile loops: this came around in 7 days, much like a ringu curse

this project was the culmination of weeks of persistent (and still on going0) insomnia and basically just collapsing under the pressures of everyday life - but i mean this in the most good, meaningful and spiritful way - it sure felt great tracking while in bed and just drinking coffee 3am because i can lol

i wait for the day we can all be like ghost in the shell and code music vertically like the virtual gods we are inside the app, until then i’ll keep checking that cheat sheet and ungracefully reaching for the mouse from time to time, as i dream of the og matrix ost cd that got “lost” somewhere around 2003

may the work of others warm your heart and fill your hands with desire to track some music, other than that i’m just like that dog at the control station who doesn’t know what it’s doing but keeps going at it barking out loud with keystrokes in all caps

please be kind, i haven’t slept in days or nights, whatever

also shout out to hunz

ps.: so it appears that monday is indeed the new monday and thursday is a day to be thirsty just before friday, which is another day for soylent green other than tuesday, precisely the day that comes after monday - and april 16th 2019 is definitively on a tuesday, so happy soylent green day in advance y’all

Hi, I would like to know some of the algorithmic details of the standard Renoise compressor. I am converting a song from Renoise to Bitwig currently. Now it turns out that the Renoise compressor produces really stable results. Also it seems that the threshold value is not very precise…? For example, if I setup MCompressor, Bitwig Compressor or Bitwig Dynamics, using almost same values (and threshold by ear, targeting the same output volume), the sound still won’t be as stable as in Renoise on my synthbass sound. If I now setup “knee 25%” in Mcompressor, a linear additional knee phase, it starts to sound more similar.

Can you give me some details about the algorithm? Do you know a VST compressor which will match very well? Is the Renoise compressor actually using such a linear knee phase? What about the detection/internal sidechain, does it react on l/R separately or on the sum? Do you thick that the attack and release values are accurate and match usual compressor timing “standards”?

Maybe I’m missing something, but is it possible to draw automation lanes across several patterns? Let’s say one line from beginning of the song to end at once. I only can do it pattern by pattern, which is tedious sometimes.

Hello everyone. First post here. I had a simple request. I was hoping to be able to get a simple script that I could copy and paste into the terminal and hear some audio playback from Renoise. Can I get some advice on how to go about doing this? Do I need to somehow first load a sample or instrument in order for this to work? I have tried pasting the appregiator example from PatternInterator.lua but I don’t hear anything when its executed and just see a lot of green text pop up in the terminal.

Hey,

I’m currently working on a live set that contains ca. 250 patterns. When I insert, copy, or delete a pattern (specially beginning of the project) it takes ca. 40 seconds. During that time the whole OS is nearly unresponsive.

I’ve already used “Delete unused Patterns” which helped a bit, but waiting 40 seconds to insert a new pattern really fuck up my workflow. Is that a normal behaviour or am I doing something wrong? Any ways to decrease the waiting time?

I use Linux (Kubuntu) on a Macbook pro (16 GB RAM, i7 CPU).

Been trying to get back into Renoise a bit after ages, experimenting around, i found some issues and solutions that might help others having similar problems.

• First of all are “audio enhancements / signal enhancements” on soundcards, while some games require it (like forza horizon 4), it messes up the stereo signal in Renoise completely, so always check this first and turn it off.

• I had some issues with some severe laggy VST’s, turned out that fancy “game mode” in windows 10 was the cause, so also turn it off

• A strange problem, some VST’s require activation or registration by drag&dropping license files in them. i can’t get this to work in Renoise 64bit version, however it works fine in Renoise 32bit version. I don’t know the cause, but this is a workaround, drag&drop vst works in renoise 32bit.
