Just stumbled on this, seems like something of interest to Renoisers
Stand-alone hardware thing that lets you sample using a built-in mic as well as record via a jack, then make tracks out of the sounds.

Are there some EDM Templates out there?
Hello,
I found tons of templates for many DAWs in the net, e.g. Ableton, FL Studio etc…
But I did not found some templates for Renoise…
Are the so rare?
Kind regards

Trouble getting Ableton Link and Renoise to cooperate
Hi all,
I bought Renoise after trying the demo. I liked it for drum programming and found it more intuitive than anything I have touched for that purpose. However, I prefer the instruments in Ableton for creating bass lines, synths, pads, etc. I saw it offered Ableton Link support and instantly bought it.
I can not get Ableton Link to work with Renoise. Tutorials for Ableton Link are vague and simply state that it should show up after selecting “show link toggle” in preferences. I have not been able to find tutorials for Renoise in the other direction that don’t require ReWire (RIP). Even the manual still says to use ReWire. For me, Ableton does not recognize that ReNoise exists or is running.
My goal is to use ReNoise kinda like a drum machine/vst/whatever in Ableton or vis versa. However, I understand this might now be completely possible.
What are the steps to use Ableton Link with ReNoise? Is there another method I should try?
I use windows.
Thanks!

Simple Tool (3.4.0) Midi Mapping Request
Midi Mapping Request
MidiMapRQ.xrnx (1.0 KB)
version 1.2
MidiMapRQ.xrnx (971 Bytes)
version 1.1
contents:
v1.1:
a Load button
a Save button
v1.2:
Menu entry under Song:
- Load Default MIDI Maps
- Save Default MIDI Maps
This tool saves and loads the MIDI mapping as
MIDIMAPRQ.XRNM
next to the (once installed) tool location.
@Circe whatsup, are you really paying me something? You offered to hire me…
This tool got tested with Renoise 3.4.0 - It may work with Renoise 3.1 or newer.
There was a request for adding a tool with 1 button that would (only) map the LPB to a controller knob. This tool advanced to saving the whole current MIDI mapping (all knobs) to a default filename of MIDIMAPRQ.XRNM completely compatible with Renoise’s mapping file format.

Load SFZ into renoise
I don’t know if anybody already knew that it’s possible to load sfz as multisamples. I don’t exactly know since when this feature exists but I just tried to load a Piano sfz and the samples/keymap was imported flawlessly.
Just a hint.

Renoise & CPU load (an imperial art of benchmarking)
Let us gather some essential information. Since now all essential driver systems are supported for the most common operation systems on a PC, we shall collect the amount of CPU usage.
On a Windows 10 PC with 48 Mo on an I7 3,6 gHz and a 10 track mod (1 is a send) at 48 kHz you got:
An average CPU load about 34 % using ASIO on an external device (native).
An average CPU load about 26 % using WASAPI on an external device.
An average CPU load about 24 % using direct sound on an external device.
An average CPU load about 31 % using ASIO on an internal device (realtek & ASIO4all).
An average CPU load about 26 % using WASAPI on an internal device.
An average CPU load about 25 % using direct sound on an internal device.
I could imagine, I created 36 tracks with an amount of 25 % at 44.1 kHz using AFA and a crappy Lenovo Ideapad (Realtek) 12 years ago.
I couldn`t test it using port audio.

OSX Big Sur: crash opening old song
Renoise 3.4.0 is crashing when trying to open an xrns file originally created in 2009. I had the file successfully running with Renoise 3.3.2 as recently as 03/15/2022 when i created a new version and replaced a vst synth I no longer have with Zebra2. Renoise 3.4.0 crashes if the file is opened from finder or internally using Renoise’s own browser.
I had a very similar problem a couple of years ago that was solved in this topic

MacOS (mpb - 10.14): Sluggish UI responsiveness in 3.4
Long time renoise customer / supporter. It’s been ages since i’ve installed a new version of renoise. After installing 3.4 on a new user profile on my mid2015 mbp (10.14.6) fresh it seems i get incredibly slugish responsiveness from any interaction with the renoise interface. UI resize, browse folder tree, transport controls, all pretty unusable out of the gate.
Am i missing something? checkbox for intel CPU or something?
Looking forward to catching up with an old friend (renoise) but for now, back to FT clone, an even OLDER friend! (which by the way runs like a well oiled tracker on any modern computer/os!! amazing imo)

Psyscope pro vst3: Can't resize window in Renoise
I’ve seen this question a couple of times from different people and in different OSes, but I don’t get if it’s the plugins responsibility or the DAW or if the workaraound (at the bottom) is the easies solution.
Example, I’m testning psyscope pro (demoversion), I know this can be resized. I do find the resize corner just above the random button, and i can drag it. This is what happens…
-
Original look (no resize, but marked out the drag-corner):
-
Dragging the resize point into the window (to make it smaller). result after releasing button:
(ignore the actual text… demo time expired) -
Dragging the resize point out of the window borders to make it bigger, result:
The window by itself is not resizable, it’s fixed.
BUT!!! If you resize the inner content, close the window, then press “ext.editor”-button again, it has taken the necessary size to house the content. (when in the mixer tab that is, havent tested vstis.)
Is this the solution?

Add fill features similar to polyend
Hello,
One of the most powerful features in the polyend tracker is the fill feature. It offers a quick yet powerful tool for populating pattern information in useful or surprising ways. I find myself really missing it when using renoise.

Add full bar divisions to slicer "snap to"
Hello,
A simple fix for a major source of annoyance of mine would be to add bar, 2 bar, 4 bar, etc divisions to the slicer “snap to”.
Or even better, offer the ability to generate slices based on the grid. I’m currently trying to slice up entire tracks with known bpms and the current way involves way too much clicking for my poor carpal tunnel.

Sidechain behaviour (maybe bug)
Hi! i was using the Sidechain device for sidechaining a comressor on a bass sound. The Sidechain is triggered by a kick. It works fine as long as the kick is playing. But then when no kick is playing for a moment and after the gain reduction meter of the comressor reaches 0 again, then it suddenly continues with normal compression triggered by the bass itself. But normally, if sidechain compression is active, this shouldn’t be the case and there should be no more compression until the kick starts playing again. I made a small video to see what i mean:

Mini game controller as keyboard short tool
Folks might be interested in a small game controller, the 8Bitdo Lite Bluetooth Gamepad.
8bitdo.com 8BitDo Lite | 8BitDo8BitDo Lite 8BitDo Lite is an ultra-portable controller made f
I’ve been using it with a drawing program, but I think it would work well with Renoise.
It fits in my hand easily (I actually hold it sideways) so I can draw with my right hand and manage brushes, undo, saving, with my left.
I use it with a small program called JoyToKey:

Fantasy computer keyboard
So I’ve been seriously thinking about creating a computer keyboard that resembles the Renoise virtual keyboard layout, which I think is pretty standard in a few DAWs. It’d be useful if you’re travelling and don’t want to drag your midi controller around, and could be a helpful tool for people who can’t afford said midi controllers, or children learning music production.
I was thinking it’d have a small touchpad at the bottom with a button on the side. The button would toggle it between working as a mouse, and a scroll wheel you can use to chance velocity on notes.
The picture is a bit rough, but hopefully it gives you an idea. Of course it’d have flashy lights (also a toggle), so you can really highlight the playable notes. The lights can also be used to highlight specific scales if you want to do that.
Would this be something worth pursuing?
Cheers!

Help with Custom Wave Synth (Renoise Tool)
Help please?
An FM/wavetable single-cycle synth sound generator we have in Renoise Tools by @It-Alien
Unlike the other Tool called Generate Waveform, this one does update the sound while you’re working on it, but it does not maintain the “Loop Mode”. Every time I generate a new sound, it also resets the looping mode, which slows dow the process substantially, because it has to be reset to “Forward” every time.
Is there a quick way to adjust the code somewhere in the Tool to make this not happen, like the other Generate Waveform Tool?

Linux: Jack Transport currently disabled (Renoise 3.4)
In new 3.4 Jack Transport is not available any more. Instead of the button there’s a text sayin
“Jack Transport: currently disabled”.
In 3.2.2 it still works.
Is there a setting I’m missing, is this on purpose or simply a bug?
