Midi input notes from controller in wrong octave
Hi,
I’m having a problem with renoise transposing the midi input from my controller. I have the Arturia keylab and I’ve configured it to send the drum pads notes out on channel 10 starting on note c-1 and ending on d#2. When I view the output from the Arturia midi console, that’s what I see. When I view the output from MidiView I see the same. When I look at the midi monitor in renoise, I get notes on channel 10, but from c-3 to d#4. What’s going on here? Does renoise transpose midi input at some point? I’ve not been able to find a reason as to why this is happening so any ideas would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Can't exit Renoise after new UVI Workstation VST3 plugin crash
UVI Workstation just got an update with a VST3 plugin for the first time, the plugin crashes straight away when you load it (the VST2 still works), with the blame shifting error popup saying “it’s probably the plugin and not Renoise broken contact the dev blabla”, anyways, Renoise should ignore all further errors from the crashed plugin, or that’s what the popup says, however, if you try to exit Renoise, it will hang and the status bar says “Closing the application (stopping the player)”, but nothing happens, you have to manually end the process to close Renoise, or wait until Windows notices that Renoise has stopped and will ask to exit it. You can’t exit it even if you clear the instrument slot with UVI Workstation or replace it with another plugin

BUG?: renoise.song().transport.loop_range[] & repeated playback of the first line
R3.4.1 + W11
renoise.song().transport.loop_range[] can define the starting line and the ending line that you want to create a loop, for example from line 0 to line 7, or from line 12 to line 20…
The ProblemHowever, at least from the API, (in Renoise it doesn’t seem to fail), when you play the selected loop from the API or from Renoise’s play button (or space key), when the loop plays the last line, it correctly jumps to the first line, but the first line plays it 2 times, and then continues the loop.
That is, listening to the loop hears a repetition of the first line, defined with renoise.song().transport.loop_range[].
All lines in the loop should play only once on each pass, including the first. @taktik can you check this? It seems that the playback of this type of loop fails by playing the first line of the loop twice each time it makes a pass. It’s possible that with a very small loop of 1 or 2 lines it won’t happen. Obviously, it is necessary to have some note of some existing instrument in the first line of the loop to notice it.
It’s a bit strange and quite annoying. I think I can rule out that the problem derives from the LUA tool, because it also happens if you disable the tool, keeping the loop already defined.

Really!? No way to set init devices or VST settings?
Just get to use Renoise as a new tool and really that – by all its complexity – there is no way to set init settings for at least native devices. Why? Is this not solvable? This leads to really unnecessary and repetitive tasks. A simple ini file for each device somewhere in the user library would be great. @taktik is something similar planned?

Midi Note/CC to Keystroke: possible via LUA?
Fairly new to Renoise – not to music Tracker though – and I can’t help myself but playing notes via computer keyboad is still a bit of pain for me
I have an Ableton Push 2 and want to utilize it for a proper (or semi-proper) usage in Renoise. Since the documentation for the Renoise tool Duplex seems lost (at least I can’t find it) I thought about how to circumvent some shortcomings of native midi-mapping behavior.
So my idea is fairly simply (I think): a little tool that translate some (user can configure which) MIDI data to keystrokes/keybindings. In cases of Push 2 one could use four rows of the matrix for note input and the rest of the matrix for sample editing keybindings and the rest for of the buttons for naviagtion/focus/tab-switch
I know there are tools like MIDI2KEY but would not hurt to let it do Renoise via a LUA script. But is this even possible via LUA? Any idea on where to start? It would be really just about converting MIDI data in fact.

How to save sample slices with chronological names
Hello,
I like the editors workflow for slicing drum loops, but I am unable to figure out how to save the slices with chronological names that windows and or other software can interpret the order correctly. I am only able to save in hexadecimal or by note names (both of which other software/windows does not understand). How can I save with naming conventions that are compatible with most everything else?
Thank you for help.

Gui notifiers questions
Hello,
stupid question,
but I’m looking for a bug in the script where I wrote my debugging prints.
Of course, I have a lot of notifiers in my gui.
Until now I thought that the code was triggered after every change in value
but these prints convinced me that this is probably not the case.
The function is performed only if it is different from the previous one.
Is that right ?
If the value was 5 before and I enter 5 again, the function will not be executed, if I enter 6 then yes.

Windows Focus Bug?
Hi,
I’m new to Renoise and found out a behavior which feels like a bug to me.
See the gif to get an visual idea of the bug. I use the keyboard to switch the focus. It works well until the focus gets stuck in the little dsp-browser and keep on switching between the search field and the dsp listing instead of moving forward to the effects chain. I could use another keyboard shortcut to switch the focus but that’s rather annoying because I would assume to cycle thru the different windows.

Activating Spectrogram
Searched forum to no avail. The options for Spectrogram on the Spectrum are greyed out and I can’t click them.
I’m using SPAN for regular FFT duties and would like to use the Spectrogram in Renoise, but is this a discontinued feature in 3.4?
Long time owner but new user here.
Cheers,
Sonny

Renoise not finding VST's in old songs
Sorry if this was mentioned. I tried checking.
I recently got a new hdd and installed windows again. So of course I had to download renoise again and I didn’t even realize it was a new version.
I had to download my plugin installers. They gave me the option of VST3 so if I had that option I chose it.
I noticed they install somewhere dark & mysterious and renoise just finds them. If I installed a VST3 plugin with renoise currently open I had to uncheck the “enable VSt3 plugins” box and then check it again so it would show up in renoise.
The main problem is that songs are loading with an error for example:
These plugins are installed but my guess is that it’s trying to find older VST2? plugins.
I can reload those plugins but I have to start over. I lose all the changes I made to any presets, any knob I tweaked. Just looking for solutions. Maybe I’m overlooking something

Fundraiser for Ukraine with songs from Renoisers
Hi all,
Last week the compilation United electronic music artists for Ukraine was released on 05 april 2022. It contains 20 tracks by electronic music artists from various genres. Among these artists are also Renoise users. @Jonas and me in any case.
Some artists wrote a brand new track for this compilation, while others came with some very great one they already had. The artists have created something beautiful for this world!
Now after the release we have the goal to fund direct causes for aid to Ukraine with all of the proceeds from the United Electronic Music Artists for Ukraine compilation. In this way we hope to be able to contribute to help for the people in Ukraine in a musical and direct way as what feels like what we can do within our possibilities.
The compilation is available on Bandcamp only and can be listened to and purchased here:

BR - Native Instruments effects plugins UI not working
As the title says, the UI is in the lower left of the plugin window and the controls do not work, it passes audio and the effects are working if you hit randomize to hear the parameters change, but they can’t be adjusted.

Transient controller, how?
Hi,
I’m trying to do transient control on breaks using only renoise internal devices.
My goal is to get the same effect as the free “couture” vst. The usual effect I try to achieve is reducing the “drum sustain” to get the drums sound more punchy and less compressed. This is usually in a chain after bit reducing or/and distortion. Basically a de-compressor.
I tried to use the compressor device with a slow attack time, but the result is really not there…
Did anyone try to go this route and got some tips ?
Thanks

My new electro project: Brainwash Machine
During lockdown the last years I had an awakening that made want to try to make some dancy stuff. The style developed as I wrote the songs, maybe I can call it “electro funk”? 100% made with Renoise, but I recorded the guitar in Ableton Live.
