Hi everyone,

I used Renoise about 15 years ago and have some experience with tracking modules, but I recently purchased Renoise and want to dive back into making music - this time using some external (and analog) gear. While setting things up, I ran into an issue with MIDI presets not being recalled properly after reloading a project.

I’m using an external hardware MIDI box that has a lot of MIDI in and MIDI out channels. I don’t think this is the issue, since everything works fine while setting up and playing notes - Renoise is clearly sending and receiving MIDI messages correctly during creation.

The problem occurs after saving and reopening the project. For example, if I set an instrument to MIDI Channel 4 and configure the MIDI Transmit settings with Bank 1 and Preset 21, the preset doesn’t play correctly upon reloading. The MIDI channel appears correct, but the preset isn’t properly recalled.

Through some experimentation, I found that if I manually adjust the preset - by clicking the back arrow (changing it to 20) and then forward again (back to 21) - it suddenly works. This suggests that Renoise isn’t correctly sending the preset change upon loading the project, but manually adjusting it forces the correct preset to be sent.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a workaround to ensure Renoise properly sends the correct preset upon project load?

Thanks in advance for any insights!

Steps to replicate:

1. Open Sample Editor
2. Have a Sample there that is Sliced
3. Be in the Slice - viewing the Slice
4. Run a script that modifies the original sample. (with prepare + finalize included, of course)

Expected: After modifying the original sample, the slice waveform is updated.
Currently: After modifying the original sample, the slice waveform is not updated. it requires me to go to a previous slice and return to the original slice, to see the waveform update.

good evening .

I have a question, I am tinkering with a song, I have extra tracks, and now my question is the samples at once from where it comes from, so you know where it comes from at the top right of the screen you see the red line, I hope you understand me, because I am converting it to 5.1 and 5.1 copy over 6 tracks, and that with that oactave (sample 0E call everything like that at once, for example by selecting and clicking somewhere press?

Hi there, show/hide spectrum keybinding only shows the spectrum. It doesn’t hide it. Its labeled as “Show” in the keybindings, but when you hover it says show/hide. Thanks

This is a symptom thats hard to describe.
Now I’ve owned Renoise for a couple of years, but since around version 3.3 it sometimes tends to act weirdly, no matter what machine, no matter what version or health of Windows I use it on.

It crashes to desktop every so often with absolutely no apparent reason. Mostly on loading another song after working on the current one, more rarely on loading an effect (using only native), or changing views.

My Windows version: 10.019045 Build 19045
CPU: Intel i5-4670K @3.40 GHz 4 Cores
Motherboard: Asus Z87 Extreme 3, Bios version P2.80 3/11/2018 (latest stable, afaik)
RAM 4x8 of Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 Vengeance 8 GB DIMM 1333 MHz

I use a TASCAM US 20/20 audio card.
Renoise 64 bit v3.3.4 of May 4 2024
Renoise is set to always run as Administrator, with all VST’s and other folders with proper r/w permissions.

I only use native Renoise plugins, and if any other, only from Analog Obsessions legally free VST’s, but these bugs do happen even if only using the native ones.

Symptoms:

• Renoise will never write the state of Last Saved, Last Loaded, or presets for any windows or editor views/states. It randomly crashes:
  most frequently
• on loading another song after having worked on one. It will close the current one, and crash to desktop. (most frequent, likely in every 30 minutes or so.)

can also crash

• on selecting a new Effect from the effect menu, adding a track, changing from one view to another. (Less frequent, can work even an hour or so, if the above didn’t happen)

All other applications work OK, there are no cracked apps or software on the machine.

Attached is:

• log.txt: a recent crash log, a screenshot of tools installed, though these crashes happen even on a clean Windows machine, having installed all official system updates, system drivers and inf’s, and audio drivers. with a clean slate Renoise version, with no tools or any add-ons.

• a “Report.wer” application crash log (renamed to .txt) from system folder called “C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WER\ReportArchive\AppCrash_Renoise.exe_121c384fc72233f296855a216fbfec7fe477cfaf_7ff3c4f3_f8ed9f1b-20c6-42bf-a866-b8470095b69a” - though not recent, but fairly from the time it already did this last year.

• a screenshot of installed 3rd party Renoise tools

I hope its exhaustive enough.
Thank you for anyone having a look - it would lighten up my life so much if I could properly work with Renoise- thats why I put the effort into this report.

Thanks!

First off, I really struggled on what sub forum to post this under. I looked at the "Help, Support… " and also the “Tips & Tricks”. I went for this one, because of possibly similar posts (I did look) and ultimately interesting or comparable solutions. Apologies if I was wrong.

Hello, Reason (able) folks,

I purchased this software and have been playing around… blah, blah… piano roll not right for my head… blah, blah… nostalgia/Amiga/tracker youth etc… And now I’m seeing the first glimpses of deeper use but, for the life of me I cannot functionally find a way to replicate a specific technique that I have loved for decades. And the problem I have right now is how to expain what I’m even trying to ask, because I don’t know the technical lingo. I’ll do my best.

I am in no way looking for a simple solution (unless it is right there in my face, or a reliable and controllable VST to play with) but rather some guidance towards whatever the hell it is called, and options to look into. I just don’t exactly know how to describe it without a lot of babble, so my apologies.

Okay, imagine a sample/sound that you audibly pull back on itself while it is playing, to create a kind of stutter reverb effect. I can easily do this in Reason by recording live outside of the software, setting whatever samples I need to “autoseek”, pressing play and then messing around by dragging the mouse up, so the audio of all the samples combined create the effect I am looking for. I can be somewhat creative when it comes to ignorance, so I got what I needed. But it took me close to fifteen minutes of doing that to land on the perfect drop of the beat dither/subtle repeat/stretch that I wanted for a single thing.

I hope you can imagine the aural effect I tried to explain. My “hands on” creative try did not include any time stretch, but I think I am right in understanding that could be the beginning of what I’m grasping for.

I wish to have some way of applying that sound of fast stutter repetition with quick degrading drop offs that are controllable. For example, chopping up the words/lyrics of someone singing, but using Renoise to put markers so they snap (like a drum break) so it falls on the phonetics (no long “Ssss” build) but with a back end sound on every cut up punch that has a minor buzz-delay/repetition trail to it.

I ca do it manual if needed, but that is a lot of work for a very subtle thing I have in mind. So I had to ask if there are ways in Renoise to add that. My apologies for the TLDR, but I don’t know a few crucial words (I suspect) that would turn this rant into one paragraph.

Any help, pointers, or paths I should go down and explore would be wonderful. Very much appreciated.

Hello!

I understand that we are in the graveyard with ideas here, however. I looked at the topic dedicated to ghost notes and to be honest, it seems to me that this function can be slightly improved and the notes will become much more useful. Especially when working with sliding in notes. Is it possible to add a simple command with the effect strength there. Since in my opinion this will be much more optimized on the screen.

Blockquote
С-4 01 <---- Instrument number
С-5 G1 <---- Glide level
C-6 G6 <---- Glide level

that is, instead of a single note number, you can also add various interaction scenarios. Such ghost notes could also be relevant for controlling effects with phrases within the phrase itself, replacing the not always convenient LFO.

that is, instead of a direct note number, you can also add various interaction scenarios. Such ghost notes could also be relevant for controlling effects with phrases inside the phrase itself, replacing the not always convenient LFO.

to assign such a parameter, you can use either macros or some meta tool in which to bind one or more parameters. that is, in general, it could look like this

Blockquote
С-4 01 <---- Instrument number
С-5 M2 <---- Macro number

and to compensate for the effect of the stairs, you can give a smoothing effect with inertia.

the main idea is some optimization of the process

I’m interested in the community’s opinion on this matter.

Thanks.

Can someone tell me what’s happening here. Is this behaviour normal? When entering notes without refering to the instrument the ride is also triggered, but not from the beginning of the envelope it seems.

Dear forum,

I’m a new user and have made custom shortcuts for transposing blocks and tracks.

The track shortcuts work, but the block transpose keyboard shortcuts behave in a strange way.

When I select a block, I can transpose it with the keyboard. When I tab to go to the next block on the next tab and press the shortcut, the first block is being transposed. If I click on a (new) block and try the keyboard shortcut, it works.

What can I do?

The culprit could be that even though the new block is turning green/selected, the old one is darker green but still “selected”. Hope it makes sense. If I press the keyboard shortcut “begin selection”, only one block is selected.

(Also, several times the shortcuts were deleted/not saved after I entered the shortcuts in preferences).

Hi folks,
after a while I just wanted to fool around a little bit in Renoise again.
I’m using a “Hercules DJ Control MP3 e2” as my MIDI Controller, just to turn some knobs. It’s my “In device A” under the MIDI preferences. But when I want to map something with Ctrl + M, select the button/parameter in Renoise and then press something on the controller, it doesn’t get recognized.
It worked before, that’s why I wanted to try it again. I am on Version 3.4.3 and the Controller is up to date as it gets (it’s quite old, I know). And it works fine, e.g. in Virtual DJ.
Am I just missing something in the setup process?

I added the JC303 Plugin from here GitHub - midilab/jc303: A Free Roland TB-303 Plugin for Windows, MacOS and Linux: VST2, VST3, LV2, CLAP and AU. A Juce port of Open303 engine. on my track. when opening the project the bass sound on track 3 sounds extremely noisy (do not make loud!). When switching the additional controls off and on the sound goes back to normal and switch it again to on it’s still fine.

The track is here:

Maybe that’s a plugin bug?

I want to get a feeling how Renoise looks on different monitors with different scaling factors, etc.

Here’s screenshot of Renoise in full screen mode and scaling 100% on a 1920 x 1080 display with Full HD.

Especially I’m interesting how much space have on a 27" QWHD (2K) with different scaling factor. Pretty sure that with 100% this will be too small for me.

If possible please post the same view with spectrum analyzer closed and line 00 at the top.

i really wanna get a Panning LFO Modulation going in the Modulation Mappings of the Instrument - but i don’t know how to do this, since the + - * / and others just confuse me.
what’s the go-to-route for getting a really slow panning going on with modulation devices, please?

this works on Linux + macOS:

Windows doesn’t. It demands

is there any chance Windows could work too, @taktik

EDIT: i mean, either all of them should demand bundle_path inclusion
or then none of them should demand bundle_path inclusion.
