Renoise Forum

A track I made with Renoise a few years ago. After all, when to make music with Renoise, can get the desired sound with all the grains of the sound. In other DAWs, the final rendered sound is often different from the actual sound. Ahh, I’m talking about the dynamics.

I very often create synth tones by hand drawing a wave form, but it’s often hard to get a very smooth sounding wave form. Hitting the smooth operation button several times will often work quite well, but I have often wished for a wave editing mode that makes use of the same curve editing code that is used in the automation system.

I imagine something along the lines of a “curve edit” button that turns on a curve edit tool, and converts those curves back to sample data. It would be very similar in function to the draw wave mode, only it would ensure very nice smooth wave data.

I suppose there’s a grey area here if you were to hit the button on a sample that already contains data. Maybe it would have to have a warning popup: “This mode will delete existing data”, or something?

Thanks for considering my suggestion

Registered versions can be downloaded at the Renoise Backstage and demo versions at the Renoise downloads page.

The Renoise 3.3 feature release is not very far away, but things are going steady but slowly here in general these days, so we wanted to get rid of a bunch of pending fixes better sooner than later. Especially the missing “Apple notarization” in older Renoise and Redux releases gets more and more a problem because more people are running OSX Catalina now.

Songs saved with this version are fully compatible with Renoise 3.2.1. Renoise tools are as well, as the Lua API version did not change.

• All OSX builds are now signed and notarized to pass Apple OS X’ latest security features

  Please Note: OSX only - as we can no longer integrate the Renoise license into the application you’ll need to locate the Renoise.license file after running Renoise or Redux the first time. It’s part of the tar.gz file that you’ll download from the backstage.

• Retrigger FX issue with Slices
  [fixed 3.2.2] Sliced Sample - Effect Command Issues

• Using combination of RX effects in volume, pan columns and effect columns doesn’t work as expected
  [fixed 3.2.2] Rxy After Rx Does Not Properly Retrigger Sample

• Issue with fadeout command in vol/pan columns with ghost-notes
  [fixed 3.2.2] FadeOut Command in Vol/Pan Columns with "Ghost Notes" not ramping correctly

• Autoseek could overflow and crash when using very large samples which didn’t get turned off explicitly with a note off

• Undo recording a sample with slice markers could sometimes cause a crash

• Switching between folders with lots and files and sub folders should be more responsive now

• Deleting files in the disk browser may fail in newer Linux distributions (“gvfs-trash” is deprecated)
  [fixed 3.2.2] Can't delete files on Linux Manjaro (“gvfs-trash” is deprecated)

• Loading some very old Renoise files on OSX Mojave could lead to a crash
  [fixed 3.2.2] OSX Catalina: crash opening an old XRNS song

• The “Flip” option in automation editor did not adjust custom curve settings
  [fixed 3.2.2] "Flip button” in automation editor does not adjust custom curves

• Last point is not present in automation’s “Process” functions
  [fixed 3.2.2] Last point is not present in automation's "Process" functions

• Pattern split may leave empty “active” automations behind
  [fixed 3.2.2] Pattern split command does not deactivate possibly empty automation in splits

• Lua API: don’t allow setting beat_sync_lines of 0
  [fixed 3.2.2] Problem Renoise or API6: "Beatsync lines" does not allow value 0

• Lua API: phrase shuffle rounding issue
  [fixed 3.2.2] "Unstable" value in phrase.shuffle

• Lua API: Missing Text style property
  [fixed 3.2.2] Problem API with viewbuilder text: "style" property, not available to change

• Lua API: Console hangs/crashes when dumping some VST presetdata
  [fixed 3.2.2] Console hangs/crashes when dumping some VST presetdata

• Lua API: Moving slice markers may update notes incorrectly
  [fixed 3.2.2] Lua 'move_slice_marker' Updates Notes Incorrectly

• Keyboard input should work as expected now in Ardour, Mixbus and Reaper on Linux.
  Also, the Redux GUI sometimes didn’t resize correctly in Reaper on Linux
  [fixed 1.1.2] Redux not receiving keyboard events in Ardour and Reaper under Linux
  [fixed 1.1.2] Linux: Redux in Reaper - Keyboard in Phrase Editor not working

• File import dialog sometimes didn’t show up or could crash down hosts when using the awesome window manager

Full on lowercase/microsound music. Hot on the tail of Neuro… No Neuro’s full-on ambient onset - “A Particular Timeline” - “Let’s Be Happy” provides a mélange of arrangement techniques. Rhythmic, yet less percussive. Melodic, with broken pieces everywhere. Ambient without the long-form structure. Lowercase without the minimalism. Composed entirely in Renoise with every sound synthesized or field-recorded.

Full album released on July 22nd, 2020, and available from Audiobulb Records here: http://www.audiobulb.com/albums/AB099/AB099.htm

Hi. I’ve been using Renoise on and off for 12+ years, but this is my first post on the forum. I’ve been really getting really back into Renoise recently, and have been exploring new features.

I really enjoy using Renoise more as a synth than a sampler, making sounds from single wave cycles, using the instrument modulations and effects to shape the sounds. (Basically subtractive / wavetable style sythesis.)

I’m trying to achieve a particular thing but so far I can’t find a way to do it, although I can get close, so I was wondering if maybe I have just missed some crucial thing that might get me there…

So, to explain the exact thing I want to achieve: I’m working on an instrument, and I’m in the Effects tab of the instrument editor. I’d like to add an LFO to modulate volume (or filter cutoff, etc). Then, I’d like to add an envelope to control the frequency of the LFO itself so that it changes over time from slow to fast.

As far as I know, there’s no way to automate this in the same way we might automate it in the pattern editor. (Is that correct? Please tell me I’ve just missed something!) I can get quite close to what I want by adding an additional LFO, and using the “custom” modulation envelope editor to draw the envelope I want. The problem I have is that I can’t see a way to sync this slow-to-fast modulation to the actual note trigger such that it retriggers the envelope from the start when I press the note. Instead it just loops constantly, independantly of the note trigger.

Is this something that can be achieved? Perhaps I’ve missed some meta controller or something?

I was thinking / hoping that there could be some kind of meta controller that works basically like a stripped back LFO, with just the custom envelope, and which is synchronised / retriggered by the note trigger event.

Actually, all that would be needed would be a “retrigger” tick box on the LFO that would retrigger the custom envelope on note-down.

One idea I have for this is to hand draw an envelope in a second sample, and use a signal follower to automate the parameter. I’m not sure if that would work, but it’s worth a try. (I’ll report back on it.)

Thanks for any advice you might have for me. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that someone is going to point out something I just haven’t discovered yet.

Hello
I’ve just released a huge update to my ratcheteer. It shoots out MIDI notes at different velocities and speeds - and can be automated for a live feel.

It’s ideal for making trap hi hat patterns, but can send any MIDI note so it can be used for snares, kicks and used on multiple tracks to build a whole drum section.

Hope you like it!

Well I’m continuing my theme of vocal house remix’s, but I’ve gone for a male vocal this time (even though I have feminised it a bit, which is probably the ultimate sacrilege ).
A combination of 2 things I like, house music and The Doors.
The Acapella came from https://remixpacks.ru/.

I saw this rubberband with a piezo pickup and diodes and it looks amazing, not as an instrument to be played on its own onstage, but as something to sample into renoise and write tunes.

The sound of it when its struck with a soft mallet on the back is really cool.
Im pretty sure you could hold the rubberband in a way that would allow you to get tuned up to any note you want accurately for sampling into renoise.

I love the sound. Sounds like it might be great for a duo like chitar renoise + live bohdran, chitar renoise + live jaw harp and finger cymbals or chitar renoise with glitch drums and layered tastefully and sublty with synth tones.

Best value noise maker for sampling as well probably.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a renoise Chitar song?
Id really love to hear that.

Hi,

I have a Virus TI and a Roland MKS50 (midi hardware synth) which I want to sequence.

When I sequence the mks50 via midi, everything seems in sync.

When I then open up the Virus Control Plugin, the midi latency to the MKS50 goes way out of hand, the Virus stays on tick though.

I’ve tried all the standard stuff (i’m a seasoned midi user), other buffersizes, multiple midi ouputs cards, setting static buffers on and off but nothing works. Futhermore I have a brand new audient evo 4 card, and a computer that has enough cpu cylces and memory, so everything should work perfectly.`

When I test the same setup in Ableton, there are no problems at all. But when I work in Ableton, i can’t get any music out of my hands, it’s terrible man

Why is it that loading the virus control plugin breaks my midi output? Is it a PDC problem?

I hope you can help me.

(PS I want to use the plugin, so I can use the usb outputs of the virus. When I connect the virus only over midi, I can only use the hardware outputs and I have only 2 inputs on my audient card, which I need for my MKS.)

Dear Taktik

Could you please make it so that when clicking the Midi Box/Note Light in the Instrument Selector that it will mute the Instrument (Box would crossed out with an X).

I find this much more useful than muting tracks also read a long time ago that you where already considering implementing this.

thanks

An aditional button to be put underneath the pre-hear sample toggle and can be used together with it.

Simply chooses a random sample in the current selected folder. Just keep clicking until you find one you want to load.

I made a script for linux renoise users that lets you play notes with PC keyboard while focused on a plugin window Tips & Tricks Hi! I was always annoyed that in linux renoise version you have to always change focus from a plugin window to DAW window if you want to play a few notes and see how it sounds. So I made a very simple script that uses xdotool to solve this issue. It basically waits for focus change events and as soon as one happens, it switches focus back to the renoise window. Here’s the script itself. You can just download it, put it into ~/bin or ~/.local/bin or /usr/local/bin depending on your distro and…

I love the sound of the DX100 but I could only find one drum samplepack.

Does anyone know of any others?

I was impressed by midierror’s Vermona and Polivox drum samplepacks and I saw he had built a tool in renoise specifically for controlling the parameters of the DX100 so I was hoping he would make a DX100 drum sample pack.

DX100 coarse FM sound is good for drums in my opinion.
I dont know how it is for drum sound design, whether it has short exponential envelopes or anything like that…maybe to make good drums with it, it would mean chopping up LFO stuff or adding envelopes to long sounds made on DX100 in renoise later.

Anyway I hope to hear the DX100’s capabilities for drums so if anyone knows of a good DX100 drum samplepack please let me know and if there are none then I would like to request one if anyone wants to / is interested in doing one…I may end up buying one, not sure yet…about 400 euro…its quite a lot to drop on an old keyboard like that…good sound though. peace out
