Note + instrument name convention

Renoise Forum - August 12, 2021 - 22:20

Hei,

First week using Renoise and I’m still strong

One thing I noted is that in the pattern editor, the note and the instrument are written like C-400. Would be more UX friendly if it was written like C4-00? I think A2, C3, D1 are very common way to name notes, specially when you study music theory or piano. At least, this is my thought.

As I still didn’t figure out why notes are named like that, any enlightenment would be great.

Cheers

[Bug] Renoise 3.3.2 and tools: Sliders not work with CTRL + drag mouse

Renoise Forum - August 12, 2021 - 16:41

R3.3.2, W10 x64
There has probably been some change under the hood in the latest versions of Renoise that prevents you from using the slider bar fine-tuning (CTRL + mouse pointer dragging the slider bar). This only happens on normal sliders and probably small ones. In the knobs it works correctly. This happens in Renoise (all platforms) and in the tools.

I think I remember there was a last change in API 6.1 that maybe has something to do with this.

@taktik., could you bring back the fine adjustment on the sliders with CTRL + mouse drag?

I'm evaluating Renoise. Help needed!

Renoise Forum - August 11, 2021 - 20:56

Hi,

A friend of mine recommend Renoise. At first, as most of the users, I cursed the interface (my friend laugh till today). But bit by bit I’m getting used to it. However, I work heavily with MIDI files, from creating chords progression to drum patterns. So, my thoughts are:

  1. Renoise is not MIDI “friendly”, is that correct?
  2. If the above is correct, how do you write your chords? How do you overcome the use of MIDIs?
  3. If #1 is correct, it means that Renoise is more sample based and MIDI is not its thing. Is that correct?
  4. I’m into synthwave production. Is that a style that Renoise can do?

Sorry, if those questions are dumb, but trackers are new to me and I still don’t know what they can do, and how they do things. So, any help here will be very appreciated.

Cheers,
Castle

Filter - Step Filter Q

Renoise Forum - August 11, 2021 - 17:30

Hi all, hope you good.

When writing in automation for filters, I have no problem creating smooth sweeps and such but is there a way to set the quantise or settings so that I can have the filter step up or down evenly on every 4th or 16th beat without having to draw in points connecting the filter steps? Basically like a stepfilter VST would do.

I hope I explained that well. If not, 10000 apologies.

Thanks in advance.

I will be talking about Protracker LIVE next tuesday

Renoise Forum - August 11, 2021 - 09:19

On Redirecting... I will be talking about Protracker 2 on the Amiga which is the ancestor of our fellow Renoise.

The talk itself will generally be in german, but on the other hand you will see on original Amiga Hardware how difficult it was, making music in those days.

The Setup is: Amiga 500, Protracker 2.13, ST-01-Sampledisk.

Tooldev: renoise.song() triggers error when executed during renoise startup

Renoise Forum - August 10, 2021 - 21:26

It seems that renoise does not have the renoise.song() function/object ready at startup, while tools that could access it are already being loaded. Executing that function before the startup/template song is loaded results in an error.

If a tool uses the function in it’s startup code the tool will fail loading, breaking the tool. However once renoise has successfully loaded, and tools are reloaded manually, the function works as expected, even when used in the startup code of the tool.

Expected behavior: either tools to be loaded once the renoise.song() function is ready for use, or the function passing a value like nil to indicate that the system is not ready yet.

I have created a little testing tool to demonstrate the error. Install the xrnx - it will print a message dialog stating success while being installed. Now shut down renoise. Start renoise again - the tool will execute renoise.song() and trigger the error message, the tool will not be loaded. Reloading the tools once renoise has finished startup will not trigger the error, but successfully load the tool and print the success message.

Tested with Renoise 3.3.2 on Linux.

Using the pattern font from Redux in Renoise

Renoise Forum - August 10, 2021 - 10:00

Simple as that really, I find the font style a little easier on the eyes in Redux as compared to Renoise.

Thanks.

Akai Mpc,Akai force or Ni Maschine Plus?

Renoise Forum - August 9, 2021 - 21:35

Hello you guys i hope all is well.So i am looking for a standalone unit to get away from the Pc because i am really tired of the mouse and keyboard and the Pc- Daw environment is killing my creativity.I really want to go for a more hands on approach so i am interested in your opinions on this.Do you have any of this hardware Akai Mpcs,Akai force or Ni Maschine Plus?I have watched like a million videos about them and i am closer to the Akai force,i find that the Mpcs and the Maschine is more aimed at beat makers although i ve seen people make other genres on them.What are your thought on this?Please I need opinions from people who already own or had in the past some kind of a standalone unit like the ones i mentioned above

Where is my VST?

Renoise Forum - August 7, 2021 - 16:16

I was using ElementFX VST3 plugin (somehow VST2 in this case works bad / crashes). And I saved some chains contains this plugin.

Now is funny part - I don’t see this plugin on list anymore! I see VST2 version only, BUT when I load chain with that plugin (VST3 version) - it works and it’s visible!

I was trying to rename file in Common Files\VST3 folder (or even duplicate it) but no luck there. Still VST3 version is missing for no reason (was visible before).

Windows: unfiltered audio's lion always having to reset auto-scale gui compatibility option

Renoise Forum - August 6, 2021 - 03:56

Computer: windows 10 64bit, i7-7500U, 16gb ram

I’m using the vst2 version (for the most part unless there’s no vst2 version, vst2 usually works better for me), of unfiltered audio’s lion synth plugin which I got from plugin-alliance.com. Not sure if that makes a difference in this case but I only have a license for that one, not the one explicitly from unfiltered audio’s site since I got it on sale at plugin-alliance.

For whatever reason I keep having to click on the auto-scale gui compatibility option when using lion. It works 99% right if I don’t do that but… the modulation cables don’t line up properly in lion unless I use that option. I’ve checked it then cleared the plugin and loaded it back up, works right but even on a project I’ve saved it with I still have to set that option for it to go into effect.

So far this is the only plugin I have which I’ve had this issue with, I’ve had to use the option on other plugins but it would always be set and not act up. I don’t seem to have this issue with unfiltered audio’s BYOME, which I also purchased from plugin-alliance.

Just released a new EP : Super Master Supreme

Renoise Forum - August 6, 2021 - 00:55

Hey guys. Long time no see. I’ve mostly been on musical hiatus recently, but since I hadn’t released some of my better newer tracks in an official capacity, thought I’d bung them all on an ep just for sake’s sake. Think I posted some of the tracks here when I’d first released them, not sure about all of them though. All tracked in the Renoise trickety tracker ofc.

Better sample rate conversion (SRC)

Renoise Forum - August 3, 2021 - 11:56

If you set your samplerate to 44.1 khz in Renoise and play this 192 khz sample, you can hear some tones that shouldn’t be audible.
The sample contains just a 80 khz tone (inaudible), which on playback gets (aliased?) down into the audible range at around 8 khz.

Taken from this thread at Ableton forums.

Renoise midi , a unique feature?

Renoise Forum - August 2, 2021 - 00:05

This seems like a feaure unique to renoise
Lately I’ve been into making sysex editors in loomers architect (awesome modular midi program ) .
When loaded as a plugin in renoise , the midi out connection to my Roland integra is made IN architect (plugin ) only and not via renoise midi output and it works , it communicates directly to the hardware ( usb midi )
Somehow renoise is able to establish a connection .
I tried this in other hosts like reaper and cantabile , and there the connnection has to be from plugin (architect ) to host , and from host to midi out in order for the hardware to receive the sysex data .
Taktik , can you explain how this is possible ?
The roland integra vst 3 editor also does this , but there it communicates with the integra driver and that works in all program s
