I made some music that goes from being fairly well ordered to just a bit unsettling. Check it out!

For once a time, no electro stuff into this post! ^^
I thought a lot recently about an atmosphere for peaceful musics. Finaly I tracked this tonight. I think this is interesting, even if based on a classical piece.

This track will be turn into private in a few days, due to the work in progress.

VST used : East-west symphonic orchestra silver

I currently testing to reuse pattern sequence numbers and pattern muting as fast simple song structuring workflow. How can i prevent that Renoise is assigning a sequence a new number, when i’m moving / deleting or copying patterns?

I’ve checked the preferences, maybe i’ve missed the option?

Hi there, i’m working on a very personally oriented tool to control a Fostex VM200 mixer.
This mixer is only “mono” inputs but permit to “pair” channels to form a stereo one.
So in that case i want to modify the view according to “paired groups” variables.

In the following picture, you can see groups 17+18 and 19+20 are paired and the gear “slices” get closer. (this is the default configuration, vb is build on tool starting).

The view with the faders is named “gear_view” and is an unique child of its parent “gear_frame”.

I added an “update_gear_frame” that is invoked on changing the “paired groups” variables (from the down right buttons:
First try to remove the gear-view:
local function update_gear_frame()
gear_frame:remove_child(gear_view)
end

Result is the next picture: it did what i ask…

Then i added more in the update function like this:
local function update_gear_frame()
gear_frame:remove_child(gear_view)
gear_panel()
gear_frame:add_child(gear_view)
end

(the gear_panel() function is the function that build the view “gear_view”)

The result is the next picture:

I understand that the gear_view is removed but not cleared, and i add more childs to it with the gear_panel() function. The newly added ones fit my needs (you can see channels “1+2” are closer on the second generation).
I tried to add a “gear_view = nil” like this:
local function update_gear_frame()
gear_frame:remove_child(gear_view)
gear_view = nil
gear_panel()
gear_frame:add_child(gear_view)
end

Found that on a very old topic…but i got this error:
"attempt to index upvalue ‘gear_view’ (a nil value)
which also makes sense…

Do anybody have an advice or a trick to refresh my “gear_view” in a proper way?
Thanks ahead!!!

In the Pattern sequencer (left side of screen) there is a loop function at each pattern, that I can click with mouse to loop a pattern. Looking through shortcuts tells me that Ctrl+L also does this (when the pattern sequencer is in focus of course). But it only activates the loop function for the pattern at the top. I would have expected that it would enable the specific pattern that is selected. What am I doing wrong. Is it a bug or am I (still) an idiot?

If I play a pure 100Hz sine wave (full peak to peak +1 -1), 0db track headroom and display this in the frequency spectrum, I get:

I’m no expert in this (I could’ve missed something obvious), but should that drawn peak be a bit more closer to 0db? Rather than graphically displaying about -15.75db according to that ruler(?) I can understand +0.3db or -0.5db off when run through the algorithm and drawn, but -15.75db? Sure it is probably just a graphical thing (no detriment to the sound), I still kinda get the feeling that that is…

Bit of a work in progress, randomly put this together before bed in about 3-4 hours. Needs more variation rhythmically, melodically, and tonally, and a possible B-section with altered fx processing.

Been out of the music production world for a couple months but got back in it the last month or so, and I’ve been really trying to focus on my mixing over the past two weeks to get good clean mixes down, while also trying to practice composing melodies cause I’m brutal at actually making and mixing together melodic content. This track was intended to be something like a Mr. Bill type track with loads of cut up drums and dubstepy type glitch stuff going on, and just loads of aesthetic variation (I just for the life of me cannot seem to produce content like that) but in the end it couldn’t have ended up further from it.

In this thread I intend to create 2 lists of VST plugins of instruments that meet these premises:

• They must be VST2 (for the moment) of 64bit, specifically with .dll extension for Windows 10 (there will usually be a version for others OS).
• The first list should be plugins compatible with velocity sensitivity. The plugin must have a wheel or something similar to be able to increase or decrease the sensitivity to the pulsation velocity, or at least set to accept the maximum velocity range (0 to 127).
• The second list must be compatible with the programs that Renoise can display on the Plugins tab (drop-down list on the left called “Program”).

Generally, the best plugins for Renoise are the 64bit plugins that are in the 2 lists.

If anyone knows any VSTi that meets both properties, name it in the thread and I will add it to the 2 lists below. These listings can help you find better the complements for instruments that best fit Renoise.

I will also add the 32-bit ones that are still interesting to me (with the hope that Renoise will work well again with the 32bit plugins). There are still many very interesting 32bit VSTi plugins, but I will not add them to the lists.

Those that are not marked are 64bit. It doesn’t matter if they are paid or free, but they must have a minimum quality.

1. List of VSTi with “Velocity Sensitivity”

• Pigments [Arturia]
• Massive X [Native Instruments]
• Spire [Reveal Sounds]
• Predator / Predator 2 [Rob Papen]
• Punch / Punch Multi [Rob Papen]
• Gladiator [Tone2]
• Thorn [Dmitry Sches]
• Diva [u-he]
• Hive 1 [u-he]
• Diversion [Dmitry Sches]
• Sawer [Image-Line]
• Xpand!2 [Air Music Technology]
• Philharmonik 2 [IK Multimedia]
• OrchestralCompanion Strings/Brass/Woodwinds (and others) [SONiVOX]
• BassLine-101 [TAL]
• NoiseMaker [TAL]
• Olga [schwa] (32bit)

2. List of VSTi with “Program Compatibility”

• Abakos [HERCs Music Systems] (32bit)
• Sylenth1 [LennarDigital] (32bit)
• TranceDrive (32bit)
• ANA2 [Sonic Academy]
• Carbon Electra [Plugin Boutique]
• Dexed [Digital Suburban]
• Predator [Rob Papen]
• Punch / Punch Multi [Rob Papen]
• BIGROOMKIXSYNTH [Alan Hinton] (32bit)
• AvatarST [HGFortunex2] (32bit)
• Ragnarok [Hans Peter Willems + Bjoern Arlt]
• OrchestralCompanion Strings/Brass/Woodwinds (and others) [SONiVOX]
• Elek7ro-II [TAL]
• NoiseMaker [TAL]
• Olga [schwa] (32bit)

List of VSTi of doubts with Velocity Sensitivity

• Dune 3 [Synapse Audio]
• Serum [Xfer Records]
• Kontakt Player [Native Instruments]

List of VSTi not recommended (various problems with Renoise 3.2.0/3.2.1)

• Helm [Matt Tylet] (GUI problem)

Do you know any plugin that is not in the lists, to add it?

For the past year (maybe even two) I’ve been thinking about switching over to Ableton live for the arrangement part of creating my tracks, while retaining Renoise for sequencing and rendering drum patterns, for two main reason:
[1] I’m beginning to think that vertical visualization of midi sequencing and waveform displays in a top to bottom fashion is superior when dealing with really really dense multi-layered production.
[2] I suck at creating melodic content and the top to bottom approach combined with a piano roll (wah wah he said piano roll, I know I know) looks a lot easier for me to comprehend.

Pretty much all the music I’ve made in Renoise in the past two years hasn’t really exceeded about 6-8 tracks, and a few send tracks, maybe 2-4. Mostly I’ve been working with maybe commands, phrase randomisation, and random lfo’s that turn off and on specific effects and devices to create evolving sounds and progressions which is fine, I can make some really crazy shit that way particularly percussive stuff, but there have been times where I’ve actually attempted to sit and write a track note by note with little to no randomisation and found that I usually end up getting lost in all the tracks. Scrolling left to right through 20-30 or more tracks on a 15" laptop screen full of midi notes can get pretty intense. I’ve actually got an old spare computer monitor that I’m hooking up to my laptop with a HDMI cable to give me an extra 15 inches of screen space so I’ll have loads of room soon enough but I’m still curious about using a vertical DAW like Ableton and if it really is better for arrangement or not?

I know ultimately that one approach isn’t necessarily “better” than another and that really it’s gonna come down to personal preference at the end of the day, but I’d be interested to hear some other peoples thoughts on this topic.

Currently,

If I want to experiment with chord progressions using Cthulhu, I have to use a conventional DAW (Ableton, Logic, blah blah).

In these DAWs I can route the MIDI Output of Cthulhu to another track. It would be awesome to have that functionality in Renoise.

Is there a way to fine-tune a note? I know you can slide them with U and D, but wondering if it’s possible somehow to play in-between notes

Is there some go to guide. or maybe a xrnx already setup for this kit?

I’m trying to do it right now and it’s super tedious and it also sounds pretty poorly. Well the kick and snare now sounds great for me, but the hihat is very very hard to get right in renoise.

When playing the hihats on my roland kit there are like a billion notes and commands for each hit in renoise.

Anyway to fix this so there is only ONE actual hit into renoise instead of like 9 per hit?

If I use vsti drumkit superior 3 which one of the guys working there gave me, there are only one audible hit.
But if I simply listen to midi on a sample there is a billion hits.

Here is what recording a simple drum beat looks like in renoise

Hi Everyone.

Thank you, Renoise team for all your work. Renoise is the best music tool in the world.

I know this subject has been brought up before and you are working hard on it. Still, a lot of responses have been that there are not so many VST3’s and VSTs done using VST2 still work just fine. However, now that Steinberg has completely killed and buried the VST2 framework, it is very difficult for people who want to develop new plugins to do VST2. I just wanted to highlight this perspective. For what it’s worth (exactly 1 avid Renoise user’s opinion…) VST3 support is the number one feature request for me : )

Keep up the great work!
Cheers to all

1. A weird tick (?) seems to slip thru when using the Cxx effect after a fade-out.

2. Also note how the second note ramps very smoothly compared to the first note. (trying with DirectSound atm though).

I wanted to make my chiparps (phrases) a bit more dynamic via the main pattern editor, but it turns out a bit too glitchy this way.

Hi,

I am looking for a midi VST that can make a note longer than it was played, so capturing note-offs and place it later. I need that to make a midi arp playing overlapped notes, to properly not retrigger a mon portamento sound of a vsti. Oh, for macos

Any idea?

EDIT: Found a solution in Bitwig: Midi ARP + Midi Note Length
