Statistics of which VSTs used in songs?
Hello. I’ve been using Renoise for about 15 years with various computer setups - and naturally a wide variety of plugins - over those years. Usually the thing that happens on a new OS-installation when opening a song is that Renoise will tell me that this/that VST instrument/effect is missing.
I’m curious if there is a tool (inside Renoise or not) that can scan a folder of xrns-files and provide statistics of used VST-instruments and -effects, like:
- which ones are used the most,
- which ones were used over what period of time?
Given the openness of the .xrns filestructure I’m sure it’s technically possible to extract the data (although I even have a few .rns, though in much fewer numbers). No idea what would be the best way to present the data though.
I’m probably not alone when it comes to the hassle of haphazardly installing plugins, but not really remembering exactly which plugins I did use more than others. It would be cool to see actual statistics on what I used.

Meters not showing waves
V3.3
When sending a track to a S0X (Send track), the waves are not showing in the mother track anymore. Why? And how do I get’em back?
It is one of those things that make it easier to navigate my tracks. It was always like that. Lots of cool waves to show what goes on in the specified track, but now it’s gone.

Finished a track (?)
I haven’t managed to come anywhere close to finishing a track on my own for a long time.
However, with the start of a new year, I am going to call this one finished! Mostly composed in Renoise, but a few bits and pieces done in Logic as well.
I’d appreciate any comments or critique anyone would like to give!

Weird clipping bug?
So I was exporting individual tracks, normalised with a headroom of 0 and one of the tracks had clipping. I checked the original audio samples and sure enough, they had clipping already there so that’s normal. I increased the headroom because I don’t want the new samples I’m creating to show as peaking in my mixer. Exported again and this is where it got weird. There was still some clipping. There was no way there should have been any. There is zero processing, no amplification, and yet on some of the samples (not all) the levels are peaking. It’s like there is secret headroom which has revealed extra parts of the samples I thought were already clipped… Had to export with a headroom of -3 to get no clipping (on individual tracks with no amplification). It’s super weird and I would be very happy to email someone the file for further investigation.

How to gain stage in Renoise?
I couldn’t find any device that provides metering of the signal that’s coming from one device in the chain to the next, so it’s hard to tell whether the signal isn’t too hot or too weak. Even Gainer doesn’t have those, not to mention obvious things like swapping stereo channels, phase flip, adjusting width of stereo image which I find peculiar to say the least.
Am I missing something obvious here? Do I really need to use a VST for that?

Quesiton to groove
How do you guys turn off the grid, that you can make notes out of grid to make rythms to groove, is it possible in renoise. Iam just very noob. Can you shift notes, if so then how? Lets say i have hihats running 16/th iwant to give them groove manually and move the hihat out of beat little so slightly

eLicenser ERRORS on start
Hi! Just installed the new DemoVersion and when i start Renoise i got many many windows with this error:
This comes for seventeen VST-Plugins- i have to click 34 times the cancel-button before Renoise Tracker opens.
I have a eLicenser-Dongle connected to my system. But removing it does not solve this issue.

Minimum blink time in instrument box
I think there should be a minimum amount of time that the blink is lighting up in the instrument box, short samples blink so fast it’s hard to even notice and short clicks doesn’t even blink actually.

Using midi plugins in Renoise
Since “dunno exactly which Renoise update” we can use midi plugins to control other instruments in Renoise. For example midi arpeggiators like the free mucoders Hypercyclic (https://www.mucoder.net/en/hypercyclic/);
strong text
For example in above screenshot I set it up to control Surge vsti.
Since these type of plugins are supported I hardly see any mentions on them in the forums. Is anyone using them, a secret weapon thus unmentioned? If so I’m curious which plugins and how . Sound examples would be great!
I feel it is a powerful yet undervalued feature that could use more attention, besides experimentation I don’t use it a lot myself. Think these could help me create better progressions, less static notes in melodies. I read on kvr that currently we can’t send output from these type of plugins to multiple midi-outputs, is this why folks skip using them altogether?

Init midi CC on song load
Hi there
Using Renoise as sequencer for a lot of external synths it would be really great, if we could have a init midi cc on load. At least option on the song properties.
My use case:
- Typically only 1, 64 note long pattern with various tracks.
- CC is set in Renoise on ie. Drums etc. to tune them.
- Some tracks are default loaded in a mute state. I will unmute/mute tracks using an external midi controller (akai mpd 232) as I build up the song from the tracks sequenced in Renoise.
- If I start a song an later unmute a track, the cc is not set correct. I have to manually go at “touch” a cc param in the *instr midi control to make the cc have any effect. <- this is the problem I try to solved with this request
So, to sum it up. Can we have a option in the song properties, to initialize all CC on load?
It really should just use the first CC value for init. This should activate the cc to it’s correct state, so it plays back correctly when a track is unmuted.
I hope to see this feature implemented soon

Using Scaler 2 Midi Drag by Plugin Boutique in Renoise 3
Hello,
Does anyone in here use Plugin Boutique’s Scaler 2 in Renoise 3? What’s the easiest way to drag perfomances or chords midi data from Scaler into Renoise for you? It would be nice if you could just drag midi data onto the same selected track and then select the instrument from there using hexadecimal than having a whole new track, pattern and empty instrument slot be created for each set of chords.

Serial filter routing in instrument editor
It would be great if we could do that , especially when resoance is summed this gives a jupiter 6 vibe .
The roland jupiter 6 uses the same filter chip as the jup 8 , juno , sh101 etc …but it’s configured differently which gives it that distinct blubbery resonance , like the resoance peaks (of the filter stages ) are summed and more rounded
We can do this with the filter dsp’s but not in the instrument editor (polyphonic filters )

New Game! (3.3): Paddles
A new game to play in Renoise! Supports MIDI controls, sound, and multiplayer!
To learn more about the game, visit the official page here, or click the Help Button !
PS: The game should not interfere with whatever project you have open, but to be safe, it is always recommended to save your work before using any tools, including this one. Sound support was accomplished without using OSC, so at first it may appear to mess with your project file, but rest assured that when you exit/stop the game, or turn off the sound feature, your project should remain unaffected.
Have fun!

Crashing plugins with Renoise 3.3
I’ve encountered several crashing plugins with Renoise 3.3 in the last few days, very few of the crashed ones are VST3 plugins though. I can’t replicate the crashes but it happens way more often than with Renoise 3.2.4 and they’re not the typical crash prone plugins that I got used to crashing every now and then but plugins that have pretty much never (or very rarely) crashed before even when I’ve used them for years.
Most often it happens right after render to disk, sometimes in playback, sometimes when idle. Sometimes Renoise just disappears on its own or disappears after clicking ok on the fatal error popup.
My CPU is Ryzen 2600X, motherboard Asus B450 Prime Plus, 32 gigs of ram, 2x AMD R9 280X’s in crossfire mode (one display), three SSD’s, two HDDs, Behringer UMC204HD audio interface in a USB 3.1 Gen 2 port. running at 24bit/96khz, Windows 10 Pro with all the latest updates and drivers. Akai MPK49 Midi Keyboard connected with USB.
Warning Message: Ouch. The VST plugin ‘Best Service: Engine 2 (from Best Service)’ crashed in VST event/function: ‘Dispatch’, Thread: ‘GUI’
Warning Message: Ouch. The VST plugin ‘Best Service: Engine 2 (from Best Service)’ crashed in VST event/function: ‘Dispatch’, Thread: ‘GUI’
VstPlugs: Plugin ‘Native Instruments GmbH: Kontakt’ crashed in its audio process function!
Warning Message: Ouch. The VST plugin ‘Native Instruments GmbH: Kontakt (from Native Instruments GmbH)’ crashed in VST event/function: ‘Process’, Thread: ‘AUDIO Slaves’
these are the only mentions of crashes in the logfile, even though there have been tens of crashes. Other crashing plugins have been Waves VST3 plugins (IR1, IR-L, H-Reverb), Izotope Ozone 9 Advanced, and VST plugins such as UVI Workstation, EastWest Play, Scaler 2. Most often it has however been the usually very stable trio of Native Instruments Kontakt 6.4.2, Best Service Engine 2.7 and UVI Workstation 3.0.16. The two former ones crash spectacularly with warning popups, the UVI crashes silently only showing a red rim inside the plugin around the loaded instrument and just doesn’t produce any audio.

In Search Of - User Presets for Native Effects (Hydras, doofers, individual effect presets)
Hello all,
Was wondering if anyone had any interesting doofers, hydras or other presets for the native effects for Renoise. Always like to see what everyone comes up with and learn from these types of things as I’m always learning new things within Renoise! Felt it would be nice to get a snapshot forum post so people can have an easier time finding these sorts of things. Providing the patch information values or screenshots will work in most cases too! Thanks in advance.
