Making Renoise a VST? (Solving the Rewirte problem)
This is maybe partly a suggestion and partly an ask on how folks are working around Propellerheads ending Rewite support. Short question is if VST support (where Renoise itself is a VST or uses a VST for communication to a host like Ableton) is on the roadmap?
Long explanation:
Rewire dying isn’t a problem for me today - Ableton 10 and Renoise work quite happily together (apart from Renoise not supporting MIDI over Rewire, but I solved that with loopMIDI). In fact it’s a pretty wonderful marriage apart from a few minor quirks and has been the main reason I’ve incorporated Renoise into my setup, having not used it for quite some time. I’m using Renoise to control my hardware synths, my Eurorack (via MIDI) and samples (drums but also other things when I want that sampled tracker sound).
I noticed Ableton requires you to jump through hoops to enable Rewire in 11 (I’m still on 10) but also noticed Renoise has Link support. I gave that a go and it’s a start but it was pretty unusable for me compared to Rewire. That’s not a complaint! Link is very new, but just pointing out there’s a pretty big gap in the market left behind by Rewire - seems like a lot of folks were caught off guard (myself included). I tried JACK as well and I couldn’t get it working in the same way. Actually I couldn’t get it working at all but was apprehensive in spending a lot of time with it because it replacing the audio device Ableton uses versus adding busses like Rewire does and seems like it wouldn’t work for exporting songs.
The main things I use are keeping position in sync between Renoise and Live, using the audio buses (Renoise is usually in its own group) and being able to export the song in one go.
I forget which VST it was, but I used an Impulse Tracker VST clone some time ago and found it a little clunky but workable. It has position sync with Ableton (this was I think on 8) and audio exporting. I don’t recall if it had busses (pretty sure it didn’t) as I didn’t end up using it all that much. Otherwise though it worked pretty well and makes me think this is a feasible option to integrate Renoise with DAWs in a similar way as Rewire perhaps?

PLAN D by Divine Electronics
Very simplistic track, Renoise used mainly as a sequencer (for Blofeld and one Volca), but also hosts some VST3, like Surge and U-he’s Triple Cheese.

Morning coffee with Bitwig
Upgrade - Motherboard advice needed!
after a couple of years it’s time to upgrade again. My old machine has, if I recall this right, a core 2 duo E6300 processor. Since I have 2 UAD cards, I will not need the highest performance machine, but am looking for a good performance/price ratio. As for now, I think I am going for an AMD Phenom X4 965 , which should deliver double the CPU performance in Cubase - that should be enough for the next years… #5950x board
Any advice on compatible motherboards?
should be/have:
- compatible with: Line 6 TonePort UX8 (USB-Audio Interface)
- compatible with UAD-2 card (and preferrably the UAD-1 card, though I’d be willing to upgrade to a second UAD-2)
- (at least one) USB-3 port
- (at least one) eSATA port
- (preferrably) onboard graphics (all the GPU needs to do is show the Cubase window, so I’s like to go with the cheapest option. Recommendations for a cheap external card welcome!)

Loading failed with the error: Invalid zip file!
Hi,
I’ve been working on a song cutting up several long audio samples. There was an alert box last time I tried to save the .xrns file. Then, now when I try to open the .xrns file in Renoise, it says:
Loading failed with the error: Invalid zip file!.
I have the save file intact, that can be opened on a zip folder, with the sample data and Song.xml. If anyone can help me out, I’ll recompense you through PayPal. Thank you.

Initial Popup Song Comments Note Sizer?
I’m looking at the tutorials and have the Song Comments on one monitor and the main program on the other and can’t seem to expand the Song Comments so all the words are visible, which would be nice.
It would also be nice if there were chapter tabs at the bottom footer to the right.

If processing power wasn't an issue, what would you like to see happen in the audio/music industry?
Hi,
I’ve been thinking how processing power has increased in the last 10-15 years and how developements in VSTs, plugins and networked collaboration haven’t really taken advantage of this. Imagine the tech pushed the hardware more.
With that in mind, what innovations, developments and possibilities can you visualise happening?
Super powered synths, samplers, amazing DSP, live collaboration, hardware integration etc
I’d love to know your thoughts!

Better audio device settings
So, in Renoise we have this very very simple audio device settings panel:
Whereas most other software that I know which deals with latency settings etc, present those settings a bit different, eg:
You set the buffer in samples, and depending on the selected sample rate, you’re presented with different latency values (int the example above is 44,1khz and beneath is 96khz)
Could we have something like that in Renoise? Are those latency values that we select now even correct?

I made something that sounds like what you'd hear on Soma FM's Groove Salad
I finally finished something in Renoise and now I will not turn my back on it again!

Looking for tool for converting envelope data to pattern values
Hello,
Does anybody know a tool that allows passing data between the envelope editor and the pattern editor?
The use case I had in mind was an ability to plot notes’ volume values in the envelope editor as points and then convert them to note volume values in the pattern editor. Even better if you could do this both ways, load pattern volume data to the envelope editor as points too.

Using cursorkeys (up/down) to change sample
Hi.
Is there a way to use the cursorkeys (up/down) to change the selected sample when samplewindow is focused?

Go from samles to sample when you change tracks automatic, setting how is that possible?
how can I make samples jump in the right track where I want them, I have fixed places in my song because I use a 5.1 sound blaster 5.1 and when routing under the track, at the first sample speakers 3&4 right in front and so you have also left front right front left back right back, I actually had a pattern in which it jumped exactly right and that was really easy, but the next one it doesn’t do that anymore, does anyone know how to set that setting right, greetings marc

VI-like tracker
I prefer to use a small keyboard without numpad or fns keys but that is almost unusable inside Renoise. So i have been thinking about modal tracking lately. There are two modes usually - recording and normal one.
If there would be some other mode which would disable keyboard midi preview and map various tracker’s action to “normal keys” it would make things much easier with less keys.
I can also thing about some key combinations like pressing 10nc2s4 (10x insert note C2 with skip-step 4) which would help to make our workflow even faster.
If you do not know what i am talking about - pleasy try VI editor.
Does somebody know if something like this exists / existed?

What Happens When You Are Verified (by email) and a new deleted song
You can see a lot of artists, producers and deejays using the term “Official” as addition to their profile name on various media platforms.
What still remains, is one question:
are they verified?
That’s why I chose to add the term (verified) to my soundcloud account name.
I have done everything I needed to verify my account, and I can still verify it every day.
Verification (by email) is required before you can upload music.
https://soundcloud.com/eatme contains a few deleted songs.
Music by EatMe (verified), making music under the name EatMe, my artist name, which I can verify as artist name. Hello I am EatMe. You can get a verification as well, you can ask many digital services to send a verification email to your email address.
Listen to the music by EatMe on YouTube (verified)
Listen to the music by EatMe on Spotify (verified)

Old Piano - Breaks Jungle
new tune !!! " - Old Piano - " !!! is a straightforward improvisation jungle breaks piano tune
I am trying to get into releasing some new music but get stuck into just finetuning them forever, some even years.
I would like to continue this tune but I have no clue where to go or what to do with it, so I consider it as ready.
It all started when I recorded some samples out of our old wooden piano, to notice that is ~ one semitone out of normal tuning … so I had to tune all the other sounds into that tuning …

Can't find all my VST effects
Hi all,
I’ve been installing new VST effects, but Renoise can’t seem to find them. I’ve tried installing all AU, VST, VST2 and VST3 versions and they are in the respective folders. All the VSTs I’ve installed in the past are found in the DSP pane, but not the ones I’ve installed lately. I’ve double checked the paths, rescanned, restarted both Renoise and my computer but Renoise still can’t find them.
I am using Mac and Renoise 3.2.2
Any ideas how to solve this? Thanks in advance!
