Simple multitrack recorder (not a sampler)

November 30, 2021 - 09:48

Hello!

Is it possible to consider a tape recorder section?
I would like to be able to make sound recordings (multi-track voice recordings)
Consider an additional tab that would work like the sampler section for larger files in the form of audio tracks like the samples in the sampler section? We don’t need to record 24 audio tracks, 8 tracks would be great! For effects we would just use the mixer. It would be nice to be able to compose and record directly without having to use another audio workstation.

Thank you for this!

Suggestion/Request: Momentary/Slider Switch for LFO's Reset and Hydra

November 30, 2021 - 00:22

This is stemming from a conversation on the official Discord server for Renoise, would like to see a way to switch the LFO’s Reset’s functionality between slider base and momentary button base. Additional maybe give the Hydra DSP similar functionality or create an offshoot of Hydra that’s momentary only.

Question before I start scripting a tool

November 29, 2021 - 13:56

Hello everyone,

I am a software and fullstack web developer and I would like to start scripting tools for renoise, but …

I would really like this feature as described in this post:
Idea: Add a new “Rows Divider” in Pattern Editor

But reading the documentation I think I have unfortunately understood that it would be impossible:

What’s NOT possible with Renoise tools:

  • Change Renoise’s existing behaviour. Like, you can’t make all C-4s in the
    pattern editor yellow instead of white. You can write your own pattern
    editor, but not change the existing one.

Would you please clarify this point before I waste time?

Thank you in advance

Add notifiers when a song is loaded?

November 29, 2021 - 00:36

I’d like to add a notifier on some member of a song by default like

renoise.song().selected_track_index_observable:add_notifier(some_function)

The problem is when Renoise boots up the tool loads before the song and the tool crashes since the song is nil. Also, when loading other songs I need to add the notifier again.

Is there an intended solution for running code when a song is loaded?

Best would be something like

renoise.song_observable:add_notifier(setup_notifiers)

Randomize Track Mute

November 28, 2021 - 20:39

Hi,
I recently found a little work around to randomize toggling the mute section of an audio track, since there is no effect command (that I’m currently aware of) that allows for manually triggering on / off track mute. So instead I found this route useful, hope someone else does too:

(note: This is on Mac but I’m sure it’s possible on windows as well)

  1. First, go to Renoise >> Preferences >> MIDI >> In Device A and select your virtual midi device IAC Driver
    (if you don’t know how to turn on IAC check this link

  2. Setup two tracks and label them Audio and then Control

  1. On the Control track add a MIDI Control Meta Device and in the instrument panel on top right create new track with IAC as output



  1. Then on your Audio track enter midi learn mode and set IAC Control Message 0 to the Mute portion of your audio track.

I did this using Max MSP to send out control messages to Renoise for the initial learn, but you could easily do this with another audio program that allows for midi control sends, or even figure a way to do it from Renoise itself.

  1. Now when you slide the CC0 ‘0’ as seen in pics above the mute should go on / off for the track labeled audio

  2. Lastly, I added an LFO meta device (super handy renoise plugin!) to randomize the MIDI Controller meta device, creating a sort of probability based Mute On / Off toggle

Everything automation?

November 28, 2021 - 15:02

Maybe I have said it before but here goes again,

everything should could be controlled with automation (also midi)((also midi channels in/out and midi program change and transpose.
aNd also, especially all the stuff in the sampler, phrases LPb, sample command fx slider

automation on scales and note?

yeah, everything, I guess

oh, and the macro, 8 is not enough, why not just have everything in the sampler being automated do as all the other envelopes automations outside side sampler, have the sampler automation go out of the sampler so you don’t need the macros? Would be much easier:)

and also Automation on vst plugin instruments and audio plugin GUI. Thaaank you:)

Can't resize VST2 window

November 28, 2021 - 01:29

Testing the VCVRack VST Beta and I found that I can’t resize the VST window.

I can only compare to Reaper right now where resizing works as expected.

Is there anything the VST could do here or Renoise forces the initial size?

I’m using Renoise 3.3.2 on Linux and it is a VST2.

Renoise and S88 Komplete Kontrol Midi mapping issue

November 27, 2021 - 16:02

Hi there!

I am trying to midi map my Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol s88 keyboard to have the play/rec/stop buttons trigger when I press the respective buttons on the actual keyboard. The only problem is, those buttons are doubled with my 7th octave keys. To better understand, if I have an instrument on and I press any of the play/stop/rec keys they will play a sound on the instrument rather than be blank. If I try to remap them then I cannot use those keys on the keyboard anymore. The piano keys become mapped for the play/rec/stop functions as well…

Anyone know how I could bypass this? Also, is there any way I could get Renoise to better integrate with my S88 Keyboard (the same way in which this keyboard apparently works premapped with more famous DAWS such as Ableton) ?

Thank you all for your help!

Linux VST instruments don't work

November 27, 2021 - 10:12

I’ve tried: Dexed, Oxe, Aspect, Tunefish, and others. Vertigo was the only one that worked. Vital worked but crashes the DAW when you try to close the plugin window

Renoise won't go full screen

November 27, 2021 - 02:47

Clicking full screen makes the renoise window stutter a second then stay the same size. I can resize the window horizontally but I can’t resize it vertically by much. It’s always covering my toolbar a little bit now.

I’m on windows 11 64 bit

Extended Function keys

November 26, 2021 - 19:23

Hello,
I just got a 122 keys IBM Keyboard, with 24(!) function keys, with a “Soarer’s converter”.
These extra keys can be very useful for mapping many shortcuts, but I noticed that Renoise can’t “see” the F13 to F24 keys…
Other softwares can see them.
What do you think about it?

Duplex - is it dead?

November 25, 2021 - 04:17

Hi folks,

I’ve seen over this forum a fair bit of discussion of Duplex, but most of it goes back quite some time.

I bought recently a Launchpad mini mk3 in the hopes of finally achieving my dream of a sequencer that will integrate nicely for rhythm composing on the fly that I watch my partner do constantly on his Push 2 with Ableton. The ability to really just throw things together so quickly while the sequencer is rolling with a physical interface is something I really want to get to.

I’ve fired up Duplex, but saw straight away that it only seems to have support for older Launchpads.

Is there a profile engine that I could try and sink my teeth into to give the ability to sequence to my Launchpad Mini mk3? It would be a killer and cheap way to add this functionality to Renoise and massively improve my workflow especially for live jams (I’m using renoise lately mainly to drive my huge modular I’ve been hand building including some great analogue synth drums).

Any pointers would be great

Jesse

Redux won't show up in Logic Pro. Tried a lot (EDIT: SOLVED, SOLUTION INSIDE)

November 25, 2021 - 02:07

I tried multiple things but I just can’t get the AU component to show up. The first time I added it it said “cannot open” and I figured it was because of the license. So I re-installed and now it shows as “validated and openable” but I don’t see it in the list of Audio Unit plugins anywhere.

MacBook Air (M1, 2020)

I just tried it in Reaper and it does show up under AUi and can be opened fine.

When I go to Plugin Manager back in Logic I see that Renoise is listed, it says it is fully validated and open, but I don’t see it in the dropdown when I want to add an Instrument to a track. I do not see "Renoise: in the list of developers. When I rescan that particular plugin, I see that it ends by saying “Updating AU properties…” and I can’t tell if it’s stuck or if that’s just the last line of the process. It does not proceed once it reaches that point.

this is what it looks like:

Anyway thanks for any help.

Rendering Error when using a ZBxx - Break pattern command

November 24, 2021 - 17:22

Hi,

today this error occured again! Whenever I use a ZBxx - Break pattern command in a song the rendering will not stop at the last line of the last pattern but instead render on in the first line of the first pattern for round about four lines!
I would like to know if this is an issue or if I am missing something?

Thank you in advance

Tracks should be posted in this thread, 3-7 minutes long, realized in renoise, plugins are fine, but extra points if you don’t use 'em

Prizes: ??? anyone want to donate something? I think winners are traditionally chosen randomly

Deadline: January 15th, 2022
