Renoise Forum

Hello Renoise forums. It’s been a while!

I’m about to lose my mind here though. Somewhere within Renoise, at least as far as I can tell, there is some sort of built in compressor or limiter.

As I turn on or off different sounds, or enable or disable the line in from my keyboard, the rest of the sounds get quieter.

I’m sure I’m not imagining it, in fact I think I can see it happening in the top vumeter. I have a big bass drum droning over some orchestral stuff, and if I enable/disable some rather loud hihats (I’m just setting up the sounds for this song) then the volume of the bass drum and orchestra changes dramatically.

Please tell me I’m not going crazy! If the problem is in Renoise how do I turn it the h*ll off?! If it isn’t in Renoise, could it be some unwanted part of Windows 11? I’m using digital out to an amplifier and I can hear it in headphones as well as speakers.

Oh my god…

It’s the amp.

I thought I would just have one last look at my amplifier settings before sending, and there it is. Dynamic Range Compression. FFS.

Oh well, I’ll still post this just to say hello, to prove that I’m not crazy, and in case it saves someone else spending 4 hours pulling their audio chain apart.

I know there is a button in the header of the pattern editor. So I can loop sections of the pattern.
(I am not in front of Renoise)

Any possibility to marker/ loop a section (e.g. odd section 05 til 37) and bounce them?

Thanks in advance

When I try to render clean low-frequency synth sounds, like a kick drum, the first note is not rendered, and when it does, it’s super quiet. Turning off the track headroom doesn’t make any difference.

It seems there’s a problem with loading VST3 presets in several VST3 plugins. All presets are loading wrong and do not sound correct. Lots of settings and tweaks are loading wrong. You always have to lad the presets again and again until they load correctly after several tries. In all my other DAWs they load just fine.

Dear community,
we all love Renoise as one of the most forward thinking tracker projects of this day and age.
The developers have proven for years to still listen to customers wishes years after that development was profitable.
I know we all love that, as opposed to industry standard (music) software, Renoise has an extremely consumer friendly payment model: You purchase the upgrades for one full version of upgrades. No monthly/yearly subscription costs.
But here is the issue.
Bear in mind that the last time you had to pay for the most recent upgrade, was if you purchesd renoise in version 2.5
That came out in 2010!

The reality is, even if you have been using renoise for years, there really is no other way to help further the renoise development.
Of course you can support the project by non monetary ways, for example by programming tools or releasing doofer/Instrument Packs in Forums but this isn’t gonna suddenly generate a whole bunch of money to pay for a programmers wage.

I started this thread as means to gather and discuss community opinions on how open we would be to different pricing models. While that would cost us more money, this would enable renoise to stay at the cutting edge of music production technology. Maybe all the developers need is a nod by their fan base, giving the GO to try and monetize us so that they can further revive the development of Renoise.

What do you think? What are some ideas to generate money? Subscription or Patreon? How much can you pay? How about a donation Call-to-action every once in a while?

Let’s try figuring out how we can direct money towards this lovely program and it’s community

Some of us have completely and utterly given up on using the Disk Browser for anything.

So give us a way of showing Instrument Box + Instrument Properties, but without Disk Browser.
If I try to hide Disk Browser, then the Instrument Box is hidden, too.

hi i have renoise.app().window:select_preset(8)
and i’m wondering, what would be the method of writing to that specific preset 8, the desired content? i.e. if i incorporate a “preset 8” saved as a file, how do i force the selection of said preset?

Can anyone remind me what the sample slice /offset command is in Renoise 2.1?
I though it was
sxx

for slice offset

It won’t let me put s anywhere in the effect pattern.
It’s been a while since I used Renoise for this.
Be most grateful if anyone can put me straight.
Thanks

Please be aware of an ongoing problem with Wine 9.5 and above with yabridgectl. Workaround is to downgrade to Wine 9.4.

github.com/robbert-vdh/yabridge yabridge plugins fail to load after update to wine 9.5-9.6 opened 05:11PM - 23 Mar 24 UTC mrbumpy409

Load a long sample in the editor
enable keyboard icon
Make selection+loop
Result : it won 't loop

hi i’ve set the virtual keyboard pitchbend to control the sample’s pitch.
how do i record output from virtual keyboard pitchbend (or mod) to pattern editor?

also, i’ve enabled the macro knobs at the top of the instrument details, but they also don’t seem to record anything to pattern editor.

what am i missing here?

So I see that this tool removed silence beneath a certain threshold

Tool (2.7): Add/Remove Silence Renoise Tools Adds the ability to either destructively remove silent parts of a sample (sounds that fall below a threshold), and the ability to add silence to the end or beginning of a sample. The latter can often be useful for FX processing. Shows up as ‘Add Silence…’ and ‘Remove Silence…’ in the Sample Editor’s ‘Process’ context menu. visit its page. I actually made this quite a lot of time ago but forgot to add it to the tools page [:)]

Unfortunately it isn’t compatible with 3.4. Or maybe I’m doing something wrong. I’ve definitely searched the sampler menu and I see add silence. Removing it below a threshold would come in so handy.

Any suggestions or maybe there is a hidden gem or perhaps an updated version of this that I’ve missed. I sure hope so. If not, how difficult would it be to get this feature back in Renoise. I’d imagine it’d be super useful for others too.

I have this snippet with it pitched up and it maybe all oneshots, but its not layered and doesnt have much on it but dynamics, for the world i can’t remember out of the 25-50 main breaks I use to play with, all i remember is the break was in a samplepack from competition 2 on ragga-jungle.com it’s not rare but one thats usually layered.

Anyone know of a breakbeeat recognizer? like maybe something that could match up layers and also it fresh with shazam?

Hello,
I completely forgot to write that I have another tool out.
After a long period of renunciation, I finished this tool in a usable form.
This is a remake of the older DrumSynth program.
Unfortunately, this one did not work correctly for me on Win,
so I wrote its internal replacement directly into the API for Renoise.

I also tried to add a few more extensions like Phaser, Resonator and modified Decimator.
Other wave generators added.
The tool can load internal .ds files created in the original DrumSynth version 1 and 2.
You can also save in .ds format, but the data will not work in the original DrumSynth due to modifications and added things.

Here is some older video. However, many things have already been rewritten.
Unfortunately, there is no demo version because I don’t want to maintain 2 versions of each tool.
For those who would like to support my work / it’s more fun / the tool is available on Gumroad.
Thanks.

Here are some clipper doofers I’ve made to make clipping in Renoise a bit easier. The main one is Kaid’s clipper. It uses the the distortion device on razor but makes things easier to manage

Kaid’s Clipper.xrdp (18.0 KB)
Attempt at soft clipper: Dirty Squasher.xrdp (16.2 KB)
Stripped back version of Kaid’s clipper: Simple Clipper.xrdp (6.3 KB)

You can see a little demo on the gumroad. also pretty pwease donate ty ty ty

Gumroad Kaid's Clipper: Renoise Doofer

Renoise doesn't have a proper clipper effect so here is a clipper doofer + 2 other variations for your clipping needsKaid's clipper: the main doofer, uses razor distortion effect for hard clipping and has a dry/wet knobSimple clipper: stripped back...
