Renoise Forum

Hello, having this weird issue with the Arturia Pigments VSTi. When closing/reopening the editor window or rendering a sample from the pattern editor (ctrl + r) causes the editor gui to lose some elements. This will always cause the waveform view the disappear:

Other instances I have lost the ability to move sliders or even bring up the menu to load new engines. I have disabled the auto scale function and the issue still persists and this has occurred on (2) separate windows laptops I have. Anyone have this issue or know of a potential fix?

Rediscovered this odd Gem from Bram Bros 1999-

Designed partly as a joke with ‘built-in’ limitations…

From a HitSquad Interview in 2000-

**Q. What happened to The Moonfish project?

It didn’t seem to capture the public imagination as successfully as Hammerhead.**
It was never intended to be a serious project. Actually I was already developing Tuareg when I made Moonfish. It started out as a joke. Someone on a mailinglist mentioned he still thought it was a challenge to create songs on his old 4-channel Amiga tracker. Everyone laughed at him, but actually it made me think: “why not try to create a tool that has ridiculously silly limitations, but is still fun to use?” That seemed like a challenge to me and that’s the idea that became Moonfish. MoFi was made in less than a week and that shows. Still I think it was a cool joke. And apparently some weirdos in the world do cool stuff with it…

He also apparently created it to have the ability to go 1230 BPMs from an email from somebody named ‘ZAP’ that was supposed to have been talking about 230 BPMs but must’ve hit the 1+2 to end up with 1230 BPM…So Moonfish was then designed to attain 1230 BPM…Part of the joke…

Looks to be a great contender for a Challenge Tracker…I certainly am gonna ‘tune it’ as I have never heard anything done in it…

The original Moonfish page is here-

It's all about that crazy 3-channel tracker called MoonFish

BUTT!!..Download does not work from there…GO HERE-

Hi, is it true that Renoise 4 will get a native piano roll?

Renoise attaches itself to every file type as far as I can tell. Can this be changed? There are open so many files that need to open renoise surely.

I really like the Renoise tracker format but after an hour of scouring the manual, I can’t seem to figure out how to enter the notes into the pattern editor. I can get into edit mode through the “ESC” key. The keyboard acts as a piano keyboard, which I hate! How can I just enter in “C2 90…” with the normal computer keyboard characters?

I apologize if this is a common problem. I looked through the manual and just couldn’t find how to keyboard characters vs keyboard notes.

Recently my waves plugins crashed renoise again.I reinstalled and got some working and ditched some others.I have one problem, a big project im working on makes extensive use of the waves L1 limiter.I have got this plugin working again however when i open the song, renoise cannot find the L1 plugins, even though i can load new instances in fine.This particular song has 30 or more instances of L1 in it.I need to find a way of pointing renoise back to it so it will load the plugins with all the settings and stuff i had dialed in.Is there any way to do this?

Re-working of a tune I laid the foundations for during UK lockdown. Mid-paced EDM/electronica with some old samples, swirling pads and keyboard stabs. Penny for your thoughts…

Hi all,
lately, while editing in the pattern editor, I often use the loop function in order to create new rhythms and variations. My idea was to make a shortcut that would allow to copy a selection and paste it directly in the next pattern block (or cell), to make it a cumulative cell of a variety of selection made below.
Originally, I first thought developing a full sequencer, that would allow to re-arrange patterns using this loop function, extended to all tracks, all steps in the sequencer (more of a global re-arrangement tool). While this idea is complicated to achieve for me, because I need more time to learn about scripting; I thought making it simpler, and so, a shortcut.
I wanted first of all, to know if any tool has been made with this idea before.
greetings

Hi everybody!

Couldn’t figure this one out, is there a way to control adsr values through pattern effect comands? Or would this be a task for automation?

I wonder if it would be possible adding the possibility of adding more than just 2 VST plugin folder paths,
since it would improve VST(i) management a lot.

For example:
Some Vst(i) need a registration, some dont’. so that’s why I’m distributing them to different folders.
That makes it easier finding them after p.e. reinstalling my OS.
Or maybe I just want to test some plugins, unsure if I’m going to keep them. So Im using an extra folder for these.

Unfortunately some plugins insist in getting installed on the system partion (like in the “Steinberg/vst” folder), and soley because of that one of the currently 2 paths is reserved for them.

I really try to avoid installing non-essential programs on “c:” so it would be great if there was the opportunity of adding 2-3 more paths leading to different plugin folders

hi. So i have a vst plugin generating midi sequence and sending it to another plugin, which works fine. BUT, for some reason i can not record this sequence to a track…I mean, i get the concept of tracks and instruments being independent, so it looks like two plugins communicate with each other directly, but how do i get to record a midi output of the instrument to a track? I’'m using plugin midi routing option to choose which instrument to send the sequence to…

It’d be nice if while moving though the Edit notes there was an option to have the notes be triggered and played when the selector block highlighted them. I think it’d be useful.

I’m just testing Redux in Reaper and when starting the playback directly at the beginning of the note that should trigger a phrase in Redux it will not work. I have to start the playback a little bit before and only then the phrase is triggered. That’s not the case in Bitwig or Renoise.

I monitored the midi events and it is fine, but Redux is not seeing it somehow. Did anyone else observe that?

This is a deep cut, but hear me out:

I use the step length counter all the time to quickly enter notes at set intervals of lines. And I use the keystrokes to set the intervals, like ⌘+1, ⌘+2, ⌘+3, 4,8, 12, 16, etc.

My challenge is that I don’t use all the integers in between – like I never set my step length to 5, 7, or 9, but I often set it to 12, 16, and 32.

It finally dawned on me that I could update the keystrokes so that
⌘1=1
⌘2=2
⌘3=3
⌘4=4
⌘5=12
⌘6=6
⌘7=16
⌘8=8
⌘9=32

I just did that and am looking forward to the faster workflow that will result. Hope it helps you!

Renoise tries to install its ReWire engine on every start, which I’m not allowing it to do, as I never ever had any use for ReWire. It’s a bit annoying though - couldn’t it be an option set for once?

I’m testing current version on a latest MacBook Pro M1 14" and what strikes me is that the GUI doesn’t seem smooth at all.
I have it in full screen mode, latency down to 1ms (using built in audio device, don’t know how accurate this is), FPS limit off (but frankly no matter the settings, it all seems the same).
And still the VU meter / phase meter / freq analyzer and pattern scrolling seem… well very janky. I’d say even for 60hz, which Renoise probably currently runs at on Mac OS, they seem more like 30? Or even less. I don’t know whether this is a Rosetta thing, and the current closed ARM beta fixes this, or is it something else, but it’s definitely not pleasing on the eye.

Anyway - proper support for higher/variable refresh rates would be really welcome. VRR would bring some nice energy saving while on the go

Not that I post these kinds of things here but I had the page & the images already up with the NoiseTrekker 3 stuff…

Not old only like a decade pretty cool piano-roll sequencer I don’t think anybody knew of…

The Piano-Roll rather limited resolution & you can adjust velocity…

There is ‘knob turn record’ automation…

Internal synth that can be ‘structured’ you can add any of the internal transforms to build a massive synth & you can also use DMO DirectX Plugs in it…You probably don’t have any but if you install SVArTracker you will have what I have in the pics…

WAVE out render works just fine & the demo tune (not very good) sounds clean…

Here image with just about everything open that can be-

Synth has structure editor to change OSC type & to add as many ‘transforms’ as you like & in what order you like-

Here you see dropdown of what can be added & as many instances that will fit onscreen-

Here just adding a bunch to see WTF…

Kinda cool to play with for free…There is also a beatbox for external WAVs to load in for drums or anything else you want to trigger…

Limitations…UhhhYES!..But even as it is it is way more in potential than REBIRTH which seems so beloved…And HEY! Quicker too…

Get the 1.50 from here-

As above.

I know that you can use the instrument automtion to automate instrument parameters, but how can this be done with effect VST’s? I want a reverb to increase in breakdown and can’t find a way to automate the changes. Is it possible?

There are some various directories on servers one can grab this but…BUTT!!..You can also grab it from the original messageboard on the wayback machine here-

https://web.archive.org/web/20020125161845/http://www.noisetrekker3.f2s.com/

Messing about actually pretty good with some limitations & instability (on rare occasion)…Seems like there would be a NoiseTrekker 3.2.2 Challenge Thread on here somewhere, You know, for the nostalgia, or wait for it…JUST THE CHALLENGE OF IT!!

Especially as you look at the wayback snapshot this page is EXACTLY 20 YEARS OLD as I am posting right now!!!

Of course this would appeal to the ‘elderly’ of users as I suspect many here were probably still crapping their pants 20 years ago…

It’s not perfect but still too good to just be wasting away…
