In the Automation List (to the left of the Automation Editor where you input automation points or curves) …

1. a white automation icon is shown when there’s automation data for that parameter in another pattern than the one you currently seeing.
2. a yellow automation icon is shown when there’s automation data for that parameter in the current pattern.
   At least, that’s the colors shown in my theme.

That’s all very useful. But the indicators are only reliable if the status (white or yellow?) is updated when you change patterns, either by playing or scrolling.

Problem is, the icons are not updated by pattern changes. So often, the icons simply indicate something wrong (that there’s automation data in the current pattern when there’s in fact none, or that there’s no automation data in the current pattern when there in fact is).

To update the status, you have to click something (e.g. another parameter) in the Automation List or the Automation Editor.

A small demonstration song with panning automation data in pattern 0 but none in pattern 1:
Open song, open Automation Editor, go to pattern 1 → the automation icon next to Panning should turn white but it doesn’t happen. Click on Width or something else in the Automation List → now the Panning icon turns yellow.

This might not be an issue for most users, but as I use plugin automation a lot and need to keep track of where the data is, this is often causing some confusion.

Hi there,

I’m looking into adding Renoise/XRNI support to ConvertWithMoss.
Looking at the XML document of a Renoise instrument, I’m a bit puzzled though. It looks like there are two tags than can be used to identify the sample file (in the archive): Name and FileName. Neither contains the actual name in the archive though. FileName corresponds to the path of the source of the file. This is an absolute path and basically only useful on the host of the original author of the instrument.
The Name only contains the basename of the source file but since the files in the archive are prefixed with “Sample XY(basename).Z”, it does not uniquely identify a sample in some cases. So matching any filename that contains “basename” can result in multiple matches.

If the instrument author used two samples with the same basename (that is possible), how does Renoise/Redux (or any interpreter of the instrument file) uniquely identify the sample in the XRNI? Is there another tag/attribute/method I should use? Are the sample tags interpreted in order as they appear in the XML, e.g. first Sample tag corresponds to SampleData/Sample00, second to SampleData/Sample01? In which case the tags above would become almost meaningless.

Sorry if I posted to the wrong corner of the forum.

To This may seem like a cop out but is anyone aware of any videos or documentation comparing how you would go about doing something in FL Studio but doing so in Renoise? I.E….In Fl Studio effects chains on tracks go up and down in succession but with Renoise I’m confused if it’s reading the effects left to right or opposite. Again, very new here so I’m just trying to learn as much as possible.

Thanks For Anything!

Hi everyone
I will use Renoise live for a mix and I’d like to know if it’s possible to redefine the starting point of a sample “on the fly” (I’m playing with a controller )

Thanks for your help

I’ve just bought an ultrawide monitor to replace the dual monitor set-up and have installed the free powertoys windows app ( Microsoft PowerToys | Microsoft Docs ), which lets you divide the screen in (custom) parts in which you can drag windows/browser tabs to fit the section. It works through holding the shift key while dragging a window, which will light up the section in the background where you can drag it to.

Ideally I’d like the pattern editor in one part, the instrument editor in the middle part and the mixer in the last, but unfortunately this doesn’t seem to work. Manually resizing the windows every time isn’t ideal, and perhaps the detached windows from Renoise can be made to work somehow with the “fancy zones” option in the powertoys app?

Anyone have experience with the powertoys app and have gotten it to work with Renoise?

If this app is hard to support, then please consider an option/feature request to automatically detach windows and equally divide them across the available screen space!

Something like this, but perfectly divided, at the flick of a button woud be sweet;

So I may be super stupid but I’m starting to get my feet wet with Renoise and I can already tell I love it coming from FL Studio,. My question is can i basically drag and drop samples onto specific alphabet keys to build a drum set and if so is there a quick way of doing that? Basically I’ve had to just go in and type out everything which seems like a pain in the ass for breaks but at least the left ctrl + # for steps is super useful. Any sort of help, insight, future life planning is welcome haha! Thanks!

If Renoise had only ONE of the 4 streams available in this plugin. Just ONE… Listen to these examples on SoundCloud in the link below, and get the free plugin at itch.io!

granular audio effect plugin (VST3 / AU)

There are several sound examples in this SoundCloud link - go check the playlist.

Hi folks, here is my latest creation using Renoise.
It’s another dance remix with female vocals … Shock!
I know what your thinking - Does this guy do anything else other than dance remixes!?
…
Well to be honest, no not really

After a long time I finally made some music in Renoise again and not only small demos. I wanted to try some Euphoric Hardstyle again, so I made this song. Hope you like it.

Shouldn’t delayed notes trigger the Key/Velocity Trackers when the note is actually played rather than just at the start of the line?

Hello,

i try the renoise demo on linux MX but my bluetooth speaker is not recognized as sound device

my question is simple, what is a good sound card (usb) to use with alsa driver on linux for renoise ?

Thanks

First of all ,in this example renoise is NOT used for sequencing and recording , only as a vst host and pc keyboard as midi controller for real time recording in the cirklon .
Here goes
I control a renoise instrument from the cirklon , the instrument is set to receive on midi channel 4 over cirklonusb , midi comes from a cirklon track set to usb , channel 4 .
Let’s assume this sequence s playing c3,d3 notes in the cirklon .
Works great , the instrument in renoise is set to mono ( for nice glide effects )
Now , I want to record another sequence in the cirklon , and this instrument will be receiving midi on channel 2 ( also from cirklon usb )
For this I create a dummy instrument in renoise which sole purpose is to use the pc keyboard for real time recording into the cirklon , the output of this dummy instrument is set to 'cirklon usb ', so the data will be recorded into the cirklon and it will then trigger the correct vst .( some necessary steps have to be made in the cirklon to prevent midi feedback but I got this all set correctly )
The big flaw with renoise is the following , when recording from the keyboard into the cirklon while the other instrument is being sequenced ( the one set to mono and playing c3,d3 ) it will cut off the notes c3,d3, of the new recorded instrument .
When the instruemnt is not set to mono , it wont cut off notes .
How can this even happen since they are both receiving on a different midi channel ?
Turning of the instrument mono setting solves the issue
When you look at the midi monitor wou will always see incoming midi notes , even when there is no midi input channel selected , I think that’s where the problem lies and or the MONO button in general

Hi all,

I’m guessing this is simply done, but I am ignorant & have no idea how, so maybe you can help.

I am interested in adding a keybinding for “Silence Selection” in the sample editor… seems odd that it doesn’t have one available in the keys preference pane, especially since all the other buttons below the sample window already have keybinds by default.

I imagine it’s just a matter of adding the right code in the right place, or of making a simple tool? But again, I am ignorant.

Does anyone know how to do this?

thanks!

I’ve been looking into how the Pre-Mixer’s Width and Stereo Expander’s Surround parameters work, since they’re supposed to be the same. However, I’m seeing a large difference when they’re applied to a slow moving sine wave. The difference isn’t as pronounced when applied to a more complex waveform, but it’s still there (check images at full size for more detail).

Hello,

Renoise is rendering my song, but several of the tracks are rendering at different lengths and bpms. This is most obvious with my bassline, which is starting several bars before my drums do, alongside other elements doing the same. I’ve rendered in both realtime and offline, and this has happened with multiple songs. I’ve not yet had a successful render, so I’ve been shying away from rendering at all. There is no ZL tempo change trickery or really anything complex going on, and the only VSTs being used are for reverb.

Is this a common bug or am I doing something wrong? I’d attach the .xrns file but it’s too big (29mb)

Hi Everyone,

I have Renoise version 3.3 loaded on my main machine, and have used @dogsplusplus’ excellent hardware sampling tool to create some instruments from my hardware synths. I would like to use these instruments on my Windows tablets which, because they are 32 bit machines, can only run Renoise version 3.1. Is there a way to downgrade or convert these instruments so that they will load on older versions of Renoise? For example, can I save these instruments in version 3.3 as .xi files, or .sfz’s?

Thanks in advance!
