Renoise with Polyend Tracker
Hi. I’ve fallen in love with the Polyend Tracker, and composing with it is a breeze. I just recently got an idea, that to “expand” the tracking realm, I could do all drum sequencing with Polyend and the melodic side would be layed on Renoise, hence the vsti and wide columns to play chords with virtual synths/synths.
So, I installed (for the first time in many years) latesta Renoise installer. I have Apple Mac Mini M1, so I already knew, that there might be some issues with the *OSX 64bit INTEL installer". At first, everything looked fine. On launch of Renoise, the ReWire asked permission to open, but other than that everthing seemed just fine.
So, I hooked the Midi side of things immediately. I found polyend tracker in both, midi in and midi out from preferences. With a few clicks I was able to use Renoise as a slave to Polyend. It felt absolutely sweet!
After 30 minutes or so, the midi con between the Polyend and Renoise dissappeared. Just out of the blue. It doesn’t show on midi prefs, nada. I tried even re-install Renoise, and nothing. I swear I didnät change anything from settings neither with Tracker or Renoise. I also tested midi with Apples’ midi studio and Reaper, and midi is working just fine. So I figured it has got to be the ReWire? It seems that it doesn’t ask me to confirm “the use of ReWire” on each startup. So I guess this has something to do with ReWire?
If someone could help me out here, it would be more than sweet. In those 30 minutes when things were rolling, I was super happy with laying some drums in the Tracker and entering notes with the Tracker to Renoise tracks - and I could use sync, so that each time I press ‘play’ on Polyend Tracker, Renoise starts running. And there were 0 issues with latency, so I already saw some real potential here!
Cheers,
Sakke

OBS not recording audio in Renoise (linux)
I have just installed OBS as I want to take some videos of my tracks in Renoise.
I can record the screen fine but I can’t find a way to record the audio. I can record desktop audio fine if it’s coming from somewhere else (Browser, Spotify, etc.) but it won’t record any audio from Renoise.
I am running a JACK client and use a Scarlett 2i2 audio interface.
Is there anyone here experienced with OBS that knows how to fix this?

Renoise Effects not routing to mixer
Hi all, just getting into Renoise as a previous user of Ableton.
I’m trying to get the Renoise FX to sound through my audio interface/mixer. I have a Roland MX1 which is an interface/mixer in one. I have no issues with it being the master clock and all the MIDI is working fine, but the audio output from the MX1 doesn’t seem to be going into Renoise as none of the Renoise monitors are firing. And because of this, the effects aren’t working either.
I’ve set my audio settings up correctly I think, and played around with the output settings on the MX1 but nothing. Ableton says to set the MX1 up in ‘External’ mode which works, but when I do this in Renoise, no sound whatsoever. Think theres a routing issue…
Any ideas?

Who has mastery of the Arpeggio Effect?
Ok… I’m really falling in love with Renoise’s effect commands (only took me ten years or so to properly appreciate them!)
But… I can’t get anything impressive out of the 0Axx command…
Can any of you show me something impressive you’ve done with I?
Perhaps it’s just not to my taste!

Is there a way to recreate the timing of a lead like this in Renoise?
The lead instrument starting at 00:03 in revontuli | laamaa sounds like it repeatedly triggers notes while speeding up and slowing down (in addition to other things, like pitching up/down and reverse or offset).
I thought I could do this in Renoise, but so far I haven’t had any luck with the timing of the notes. My first thought was to use 0Rx and 0Rxy―but those only work per beat. I don’t know of any way to speed up or slow down notes over several beats in a single track/phrase, at least not how the reference song sounds.
The reference song was created with another tracker (the Dirtywave M8). Are there some simple tracker techniques I’ve missed in Renoise that can also produce this effect?

Rewiring Renoise [Slave] into Ableton Live 11 [Master]
I’ve been trying to Rewire Renoise into Ableton to use the functionalities of Ableton alongside the tracker style. For some reason, even though I’m opening Ableton first, waiting and then opening Renoise, it asks for the password for the Mac profile to enable rewire but it never goes into rewire mode.
What can I do?

Sending midi to the VSTi and VST fx at the same time?
Hello and happy new year!
So, i have a track which controls a vst instrument. At the same time there’s a vst fx on that track which needs to receive the same midi data(midi triggers specifically). So far i’ve figured only way: to create an Alias of that vst fx and send a duplicate of the midi data to it. Is there a way to avoid this? Thanks!

Using SP404SX with Renoise
I brought my SP404sx to a friend’s house and he plugged it into his focusrite scarlett amp (same one as mine) and hooked up a guitar cable to the sampler (that’s just what I call the cable, can’t remember the exact name) and was able to play notes in Logic without any extra setup. I picked up a guitar cable today and routed it to the the guitar port with the cable and plugged it into the phones jack on the SP404sx hoping that it’d work seamlessly with renoise, but it doesn’t detect it on the program.
I have the settings correctly in renoise to pick up and record sounds into renoise from the sampler. When I play notes from the sampler the light on the the guitar knob on my amp turns flashes from green to red continuously and while the sound works perfectly with headphones/cable plugged in, I can’t get the samples to record directly into the program. I’m still sort of a noob to using hardware with software, so any help would be highly appreciated, thanks. The picture attached shows my current setup.

Anybody have a MiDiPLUS X6mini Keyboard?
I’m stupid and can’t figure out some things from reading the manual and looking online.
I’m hoping to post some questions here about it if anyone has one and understands it better than I.

No audio output in Manjaro Linux
This is my first time installing Renoise and after hours of experimenting and research i just can’t get any sound to be output.
I couldn’t get it working with bare ALSA, so i installed QjackCTL and started that server and selected jack as the output device, to no avail. I followed the instructions to install and run Qjack properly, but i don’t feel confident that it’s actually installed correctly.
Through all my experiments, i kept a demo song playing, and Renoise displays (what i assume is) the output audio on the graph as normal, so it seems that my audio is working fine from Renoise’s perspective.
Does anyone have any tips for diagnosing this issue? I would settle for getting this to work with either ALSA or jack for now, even if it’s high latency… I just want output.

Issue with sending notes from two different tracks to the same plugin
Hi.
Totally new to Renoise. I have two tracks sending notes to the same instrument(multichannel drum machine). 1st track triggers kick, 2nd triggers hi hat. Weird thing is that kick triggers only when there is a trigger for hi hat as well. If i swap the tracks order in Renoise edit window then it’s other way around…how do i fix this? Thanks!

Formula Device Variables
Is there any way to declare static variables that persist between cycles in the formula device? I’m working on implementing chaotic attractors for modulation, and being able to store variables internally would make things a lot easier.
Additionally, if there is a way to do it, what scope do the variables live at? Are they global and able to be referenced by code in other instances of Formula, or are they private and completely sandboxed to the specific device?
Thanks in advance!

New Tool (3.3.2) Advanced Step Composer v1.0 build 105
Advanced Step Composer or A.S.C. is a stepper note injector, with an acidic sequencer approach. It is a big evolution of the Acid Step Sequencer tool. Choose a number of steps between 2 and 32. You can manipulate the notes and all their related values. Use the Master Step (“M” switch) for manipulation in selective groups or each step individually. You will be able to import, edit and delete data. Experiment with your notes quickly from a advanced sequencer panel. Use the power of randomization to get more creative in no time. This tool will add hours of fun building your patterns!
Main features- Up to 32 steps.
- Line jump (click inside the “Step X” name).
- Marker (with green lighting).
- Individual editing of each step.
- Master step for group editing (red step).
- Ability to auto-adjust the “number of lines of the pattern” from the LNS Value of the Master Step (press [CTRL + Click] from increase or decrease the LNS Value).
- Direct control of: note, instrument index, volume, panning, delay, sfx parameter and sfx amount values.
- Manipulation the number of lines for the steps.
- Manipulation of the note-off for the steps.
- Four selection modes: all, odd, even or custom (with 32-step panel with various selection modes).
- Selective transposition of notes.
- Randomization of values (all), with range capacity and number of steps.
- Injection of the effect and quantity in lower empty lines.
- Selective cleaning.
- Slider bars with “set to 0” (double click).
- Data import/load.
- Safe! It need Renoise “edit mode” enabled to edit.
- Work with Profiles!
- [SPACE] Restart/stop song.
- [ALT SPACE] Continue/stop song.
- [CTRL Z] undo.
- [CTRL Y] redo.
- [CTRL SHIFT A] close window.
- *[CTRL SHIFT A] open window (Assignable: Preferences/Keys:Global/Tools/Acid Step Sequencer)
- Renoise: Tools/ ~Advanced Step Composer…
The GUI is constructed so that the tool appears as integrated as possible with Renoise.
“A step” is defined by the triggering of a single note. The note occupies one line, and it can have more lines below to lengthen its duration. A.S.C. is capable of injecting a specific number of notes with a specific distribution by steps. Choose a specific number of steps, insert the notes and then manipulate all their values from the tool, through each step panel. You can view between 2 and 32 equal panels. Master one, and you will master them all.
It is important to know how to control the Master Step (red panel), by pressing the “M” switch. Master Step allows you to selectively manipulate all the parameters together. Choose from All, Odd, Even or Custom for step selection.
The tool can work back and forth. That is, manipulate the data from the tool, or import data from the Renoise pattern (the selected note column). The “Import data” button allows you to readjust the tool to already written notes (only note lines and their associated note-offs).
Furthermore, A.S.C. allows specific manipulation of the effect parameters and their amounts. You can inject the values down, leaving the pattern ready for a more granular edit later.
The highlight is the selective randomization panel. This allows the user to be much more creative when he is not able to be. Use the randomization of any parameter to increase your inspiration shots. A.S.C. will help you find that step-sequenced note pattern that you never would have thought of!
BackgroundThis tool has been built based on the Acid Step Sequencer tool, being an evolution of it, between April and November 2020, and has been launched in December 2021.
Due to other projects I have not had time to develop a profile package for direct upload. If any user is willing to create folders with a multitude of profiles, they can send them to add them in a possible next version.
Direct profile loading allows you to switch “on the fly” between hundreds of note step profiles, which can be sorted by folders according to musical style.
This tool is free. You can take the LUA code and manipulate it, as long as you mention the original authorship!
Enjoy it!

Midi from Vcv2 = Homeless Instrument?
So i’m triggering samples in renoise from vcv2 vst,
it works just fine with midi routing from vcv instrument to a drumkit instrument, super fun !
However I can’t seem to find a way to make the drumkit instrument play on a track,
it’s only playing on the master track
Had a similar problem with 303 vst’s, got it working by entering a note in the track but no luck here
Am i missing something?
