Feed aggregator

Let us gather some essential information. Since now all essential driver systems are supported for the most common operation systems on a PC, we shall collect the amount of CPU usage.

On a Windows 10 PC with 48 Mo on an I7 3,6 gHz and a 10 track mod (1 is a send) at 48 kHz you got:

An average CPU load about 34 % using ASIO on an external device (native).

An average CPU load about 26 % using WASAPI on an external device.

An average CPU load about 24 % using direct sound on an external device.

An average CPU load about 31 % using ASIO on an internal device (realtek & ASIO4all).

An average CPU load about 26 % using WASAPI on an internal device.

An average CPU load about 25 % using direct sound on an internal device.

I could imagine, I created 36 tracks with an amount of 25 % at 44.1 kHz using AFA and a crappy Lenovo Ideapad (Realtek) 12 years ago.

I couldn`t test it using port audio.

Renoise 3.4.0 is crashing when trying to open an xrns file originally created in 2009. I had the file successfully running with Renoise 3.3.2 as recently as 03/15/2022 when i created a new version and replaced a vst synth I no longer have with Zebra2. Renoise 3.4.0 crashes if the file is opened from finder or internally using Renoise’s own browser.

I had a very similar problem a couple of years ago that was solved in this topic

Running Big Sur 11.6.5 on a 2018 Mac Mini.

Long time renoise customer / supporter. It’s been ages since i’ve installed a new version of renoise. After installing 3.4 on a new user profile on my mid2015 mbp (10.14.6) fresh it seems i get incredibly slugish responsiveness from any interaction with the renoise interface. UI resize, browse folder tree, transport controls, all pretty unusable out of the gate.
Am i missing something? checkbox for intel CPU or something?

Looking forward to catching up with an old friend (renoise) but for now, back to FT clone, an even OLDER friend! (which by the way runs like a well oiled tracker on any modern computer/os!! amazing imo)

I’ve seen this question a couple of times from different people and in different OSes, but I don’t get if it’s the plugins responsibility or the DAW or if the workaraound (at the bottom) is the easies solution.

Example, I’m testning psyscope pro (demoversion), I know this can be resized. I do find the resize corner just above the random button, and i can drag it. This is what happens…

1. Original look (no resize, but marked out the drag-corner):
   

2. Dragging the resize point into the window (to make it smaller). result after releasing button:
   
   (ignore the actual text… demo time expired)

3. Dragging the resize point out of the window borders to make it bigger, result:
   

The window by itself is not resizable, it’s fixed.

BUT!!! If you resize the inner content, close the window, then press “ext.editor”-button again, it has taken the necessary size to house the content. (when in the mixer tab that is, havent tested vstis.)

Is this the solution?

Hello,
One of the most powerful features in the polyend tracker is the fill feature. It offers a quick yet powerful tool for populating pattern information in useful or surprising ways. I find myself really missing it when using renoise.

Hello,
A simple fix for a major source of annoyance of mine would be to add bar, 2 bar, 4 bar, etc divisions to the slicer “snap to”.
Or even better, offer the ability to generate slices based on the grid. I’m currently trying to slice up entire tracks with known bpms and the current way involves way too much clicking for my poor carpal tunnel.

Hi! i was using the Sidechain device for sidechaining a comressor on a bass sound. The Sidechain is triggered by a kick. It works fine as long as the kick is playing. But then when no kick is playing for a moment and after the gain reduction meter of the comressor reaches 0 again, then it suddenly continues with normal compression triggered by the bass itself. But normally, if sidechain compression is active, this shouldn’t be the case and there should be no more compression until the kick starts playing again. I made a small video to see what i mean:

Folks might be interested in a small game controller, the 8Bitdo Lite Bluetooth Gamepad.

8BitDo Lite 8BitDo Lite is an ultra-portable controller made f

I’ve been using it with a drawing program, but I think it would work well with Renoise.

It fits in my hand easily (I actually hold it sideways) so I can draw with my right hand and manage brushes, undo, saving, with my left.

I use it with a small program called JoyToKey:

So I’ve been seriously thinking about creating a computer keyboard that resembles the Renoise virtual keyboard layout, which I think is pretty standard in a few DAWs. It’d be useful if you’re travelling and don’t want to drag your midi controller around, and could be a helpful tool for people who can’t afford said midi controllers, or children learning music production.
I was thinking it’d have a small touchpad at the bottom with a button on the side. The button would toggle it between working as a mouse, and a scroll wheel you can use to chance velocity on notes.
The picture is a bit rough, but hopefully it gives you an idea. Of course it’d have flashy lights (also a toggle), so you can really highlight the playable notes. The lights can also be used to highlight specific scales if you want to do that.
Would this be something worth pursuing?

Cheers!

Help please?

An FM/wavetable single-cycle synth sound generator we have in Renoise Tools by @It-Alien

Unlike the other Tool called Generate Waveform, this one does update the sound while you’re working on it, but it does not maintain the “Loop Mode”. Every time I generate a new sound, it also resets the looping mode, which slows dow the process substantially, because it has to be reset to “Forward” every time.

Is there a quick way to adjust the code somewhere in the Tool to make this not happen, like the other Generate Waveform Tool?

In new 3.4 Jack Transport is not available any more. Instead of the button there’s a text sayin
“Jack Transport: currently disabled”.

In 3.2.2 it still works.

Is there a setting I’m missing, is this on purpose or simply a bug?

This being fixed, the automation highlight updates almost works perfectly. But there’s still a minor problem in both the Automation List and the DSP lane. Video should explain.

New video (in rudimentary 3D!!!) for the Neuro… No Neuro moniker on the Audiobulb Records YouTube channel. Tons of fun to make this - learned about basic 3D design, and used MANU Game Maker to create the 3D world which the NNN TV Head walks through. Video processing through Apple Motion and various shaders, finalized in VN. Track created in Renoise, of course!

Just discovered this awesome multi-track oscilloscope plugin that I must share with you people. If you love diving into your waveforms you should take a look at this plugin, just insert it on the tracks you want to appear in the oscilloscope and work its magic.

There’s also a free version but I couldn’t get it set up properly in Renoise as I think you have to send sidechain to specific sidechain inputs of the plugin which I don’t think is possible in Renoise.

Do you know other oscilloscope plugins this good?

… to quickly get rid of the broken Cabinet and Convolver DSPs in all ARM builds. See below for details. On Windows there’s no need to update, but it also doesn’t hurt.

Registered Renoise and Redux users can download the update, as usual, from:
Renoise Backstage

Demo versions are available at the Renoise main site’s download page:
Renoise Demo Downloads

• Renoise’s Cabinet Simulator and Convolver DSP FX produced aliased/garbled sound in all ARM builds (macOS M1, Linux ARM 32&64 bit)
  MacOS (Big Sur) M1 & Pi ARM: Cabinet simulator/convolver DSP broken in R3.4

• When setting BPM from OSC, the old minimum BPM limit of 32 instead of 20 was applied:
  OSC Doesn't Accept BPM Values Below 32

• OSX: When moving the Renoise Window into its own fullscreen space and then toggling the fullscreen mode, the Renoise window could lead into a non responsive black window

An article I wrote about the Renoise 3.4 release was published on the German site amazona.de!

Jemand muss es einfach mal sagen: Renoise ist eines der besten Werkzeuge zur elektronischen Musikproduktion am Markt, und fristet zu Unrecht ein Dasein als Nischenprodukt.ANZEIGE Mit der neu erschienenen Version 3.4.0 genießt der moderne Tracker nun...

May your sales skyrocket. Long live Renoise.
