Who in here makes Glitch Hop?

March 28, 2023 - 03:33

I know a lot us make Jungle, IDM and other spastic genres of music. Today I wanted to know if anyone here makes Glitch Hop (or just Glitch music in general) or Blip Hop.

For the record:
I’m NOT talking about the EDM Glitch Hop (Pretty Lights, Mr. Bill etc) because that’s mostly just Dubstep (nothing against Dubstep). I’m talking about the actual mesh Hop Hop/Pop Music and Glitchy Blip style production.

If so, I wanna hear your records.

Just wanted to vent

March 27, 2023 - 18:32

the trend of people recording music and then pretending it’s a mysterious reissue of an obscure new age or home recorded primitive electronics cassette and putting a fake 80’s date of release on it… why?

also, oberheim matrix 6 on sale for $1300? the piece is a menu diving nightmare of buzzkill tedium. the synth was manufactured after the company was sold to a management firm in the 80’s and made as a low cost, consumer grade quick cash in on the brand name. again, no …

Recording Samples into Renoise using Pipewire

March 27, 2023 - 17:16

I am interested in recording samples from my browser into Renoise. I know this is possible, although i can’t find any information online to help me get it setup. Is an Application like WirePlumber or Qjackctl necessary? Anyone willing to help me out a bit?

A question about sample import and velocity/keyzone assignment

March 27, 2023 - 01:09

I’ve been wanting to have FM synthesis in Renoise, and I have a way to do this with single-cycle waveforms.

Using an online tool, I was able to export a set of single-cycle waveforms that gradually increases it’s frequency modulation, going from pure sine wave to modulated sine wave. I have 100 single-cycle waveforms.

Is there a way to assign each single-cycle waveform its own velocity in an automated way?

I did this with 20 waveforms today, a rudimentary version of what I’m describing above. I assigned 20 samples to the same instrument, they’re each given a different velocity keyzone (instead of pitch). In this way, I can emulate frequency modulation by assigning a velocity range, and then typing that velocity in, in the pattern. Like so:


Kind of similar to adjusting filter cutoff via the FX column.

Now, is there a way where I could drag 'n drop samples into the keyzone area, and have each one of them only take up one value, instead of 5 values (see first picture for example)? The first sample is taking up velocity values from 0 - 5, the next sample is taking up velocity values from 6 - 0A, and so on.

I was able to get a finer set of samples exported that are more gradual in FM nature, hoping to make each sample only take up a single velocity value, from 0 - 1, 1 - 2, 2 - 3, and so forth.

Do we have a tool that will do that for us, or a method that I might be missing? Otherwise, I’ll probably be spending an hour doing this repetitively by hand.

Ringing in effect chains (audio engineering)

March 26, 2023 - 19:12

Hi everyone,

first post here

So… I’ve been using Renoise for quite some time and there’s this one thing that slows down my own process quite a bit. I would really like to find a good solution for it… Perhaps some of you already might know a way that I simply just haven’t come across yet.

As the title says, I’ve been struggling with how to deal with ringing that is coming from the effect chains. Meaning that there is one or more pure sine waves (that should not be there) sounding through very loudly. Naturally this is not a Renoise specific problem but simply an audio engineering thing, and generally I suppose these things are also handled in the post processing.

The ringing is very specific to individual notes (different frequencies ringing in different notes), so in my mind it should be possible to combat the issue during playing of the notes rather than having to spend a lot of time on it in manual post processing. I tried to do this by using key trackers to try and see if a note is being played and only enabling a filter to cut out the specific frequency that is ringing. Key trackers however do not fit this purpose very well as e.g. chords will then mess it up. For this I’d need a key tracker that could simply detect if a note is either on or off and control a set of filters accordingly (combined into a doofer).

It occurred to me that I probably could work around this issue by having each note use its own sample and all samples would then have their own DSP chain in the instrument effects, but this would really blow up my instruments. They would eat up a lot of memory so for me this is not the preferred way.

Tried also looking at the lua scripting side, but initially it seemed to me that the scripts are not intended to be run during playback but rather from user interactions. Also looked like there is no access to the instrument device chains from the scrips, however I didn’t spend too much time on this. Could there be some way via scripting?

Is there some other way that I might have missed?

To visualise the problem I added two screenshots of the spectogram. There’s loud ringing at 580 Hz observable in one and filtered out (Chebyshev 4n) in the other.

Cheers,
-sly

Trying to figure out how to make the Bitwig Micromanager in Renoise

March 26, 2023 - 15:16

Tried working with decay and transients, but I’m just not ‘getting it’. Anybody have a suggestion? I don’t make micro-house, but I can see something like this being used on most any type of loop to get pretty glitches or rhythmic patterns.

Feedback Device - Idea For A New Renoise Effect

March 25, 2023 - 23:01

https://www.youtube.com/embed/d1JBHI9jOiw

An idea for a feedback effect in Renoise & Redux that’s similar to what’s possible in electric guitar effects chains, taking inspiration from existing devices like the Delay, Send & Repeater.

Adjust monitor volume

March 25, 2023 - 14:30

Can you adjust monitor volume in Renoise without affecting tracks volume?

Reason:
My UAD Apollo hardware knob is broken and unusable.
Yes, I can control the monitor volume with digital console via desktop.
But, I can’t control headphones volume.
80% I use headphones.

thanks in advance for the help.

Problems after buying Renoise full version

March 23, 2023 - 13:32

Yesterday I bought Renoise full version, everything was good. But today, when I turned on my pc, I can’t hear music on computer, there is a strong noise. I tried to turn computer off and I retried, it seemed ok but when I opened Renoise full version the noise reappeared. I don’t know what to do, I will try again. When I was on the demo version, I often left Renoise open, I listened to music on Youtube, no problem with sound. Is it a problem with Asio?

Sennheiser 280 pros and replacement pads

March 23, 2023 - 11:47

The pads on these have worn out and I will need to replace them. I’ve been looking online for the original pads but I can’t find them, only 3rd party ones (maybe because I’m based in the UK?).

If it comes down to it, which pads can you guys recommend? I want the headphones to keep the same flat response, minimal difference.

This will probably be a shot in the dark but fuck it. The ear pads are disintegrating on my ears as i type this so will need to replace them soon.

Issues running Redux on Logic Pro 10.7.7

March 23, 2023 - 09:29

The only work around is to load it using Logic in Rosetta mode.
Currently using Mac OS Monterey but I’ve ran into the same issue using Mac OS Ventura as well. Seems to be a AU issue since it runs fine other DAWs like Reaper etc…

Use multiple instances of Renoise

March 23, 2023 - 01:52

Hello, I’m looking to do Live with Renoise. For this, I try to drive several instances of Renoise. I came across this tutorial that I’m sharing with you but unfortunately, I still can’t get this mode to work with a session of Renoise as a Master which controls the other sessions as a slave like the artist Hitori (-> https:// Aphex Twin - Vordhosbn (Hitori Tori drum improvisation) - YouTube). If you have any ideas, I would be very interested. Here is the tutorial I found:
"I am now able to mix several pieces of music composed with renoise. This implies that the machine used is efficient and that the sound card is too!
You must first install a virtual driver: LoopBe1
First step: open a first instance of renoise (We will call it ‘Master’) go to the ‘Midi’ preference menu and adapt the ‘Midi clock Master’

Second step: open two other instances of renoise (We will call them ‘Slave1’ and ‘Slave2’) go to the ‘Midi’ preference menu and adapt the ‘Midi clock Slave’

Third step: In the two slave instances go to the ‘Audio’ preference menu and adapt ‘Device Settings’. Attention has the latency it must be weak (not too much if not crcrcr…in the helmet and the baffles) if necessary to use the buffer harware.

Fourth step: launch the ‘play mode’ reading of the Master instance.
Voila, you can now load music tracks in the Slave1 and Slave2 instances and mix them. We can consider Slave1 and Slave2 as two decks which are synchronized by the Master clock. If you want to adjust the tempo, just go to the Master instance to adapt it (correct the BMP). Of course you can open as many Slave instances as you want… but beware of the surprise processor overload problem.
I will add to the midi mixer a tempo controller which will be sent to the Master and two pots for controlling the total volume of Slave1 and Slave2.

Is breakcore over?

March 22, 2023 - 12:32

Obviously l ask this loaded question with intent, but l have been thinking about what styles Renoise is used for most now. It will always be famous for smashing up breakbeats but in my work I find renoise can pretty much do anything. I had some questions for the forum
In 2023 what are we making on this program? Im making electro and house with some really dark vibes atm.
How are people working with streaming technologies now with renoise? Ive seen a couple of twitch users but l think it would be cool to connect that way. Im looking into setting that up.

Also - as someone who is just getting into this forum again for tips and info I want to say what an amazing mine of information it is.

Freda.

'liminal moments' EP made in Renoise

March 22, 2023 - 12:25

Here’s a new EP, self-released, arranged in Renoise. External sound-source this time, only sound-source used.

@taktik Here’s another call for granular and FM to be included in Renoise, because I don’t want to use Reaper to arrange further parts for these tracks. I imagine the ways I could add to the sound right here in Renoise - since it’s ambient and the subject is “liminal moments”, these types of effects would fit right in to accentuate the tracks.

Beatsyncing drum breaks at high bpms (200+)

March 21, 2023 - 19:36

For the breakcore producers, when working at a high bpm how do you manage the timing of your drum breaks?

Beatsyncing my breaks at a high bpm makes them too high pitched. If i don’t beatsync them, there will sometimes be silence before the next hit, which is not something I always want.

Please let me know how you guy’s approach this. Been using Renoise for a couple of years now, yet i still haven’t been able to figure it out
