Control sample notes, sample fx selection + amount with midi controller
Hi friends!
Have a great 2021, hope the best for all.
I have an idea for a more playful way to make songs with renoise and i wonder if it is possible natively or with existent tools.
Launchpad mini: select the cell in the note column, for example “Position 14 in the Track 1”.
Another midi controller with knobs:
- Rotating one knob: select note (clockwise upper pitch).
- Second knob: jump between columns.
- Third knob: if it is a sample fx column: change fx (for example rotate to the left 0Sxx command, one more step 0Axx, one more step 0Bxx and so on)
- Fourth knob: change the sample fx value
Hope this idea makes sense.
Sorry my english is very basic.
Cheers.

Macbook with Apple silicon
Hello,
I’ve ordered one for myself (late x-mas present :)) It’ll only arrive end of January, but anyway:
I’m pretty sure native ARM support won’t happen. At least not anytime soon, but has anyone bought one of those and can tell how well or bad Renoise works with Rosetta 2?
Happy New Year!

Using multiple DAWs at the same time with JACK on MS Windows
Hi all,
I thought I would share the following tip with you.
I own a number of DAWs and each one has its own strengths and weaknesses. I’ve been looking into combining their strengths by using more than one DAW at the same time. ReWire is perhaps the obvious choice when doing this, but what if one of the DAWs doesn’t have this capability? (I’m looking at you Bitwig).
On Linux, JACK can be used to achieve this, but what about on Windows? Renoise on Linux supports JACK out of the box, but it doesn’t support JACK on Windows.
Firstly, for synchronising the DAWs and sending MIDI notes, I use loopMIDI. I created a loopback device and I can use Renoise to send the MIDI clock and MIDI notes to a second DAW.
For the audio side, I investigated JACK on Windows by following the instructions here: Using JACK on Windows. It says
So any ASIO application will be able to use the JackRouter ASIO linker to connect to Jack, and Jack can then be used to route that audio to other applications connected to the Jack Audio Server, or out to the system sound device.
This sounded just like what I wanted. But after following the instructions I just couldn’t get it working.
Then after doing some research, I saw this post: JACK 1.9.16 doesn’t work on Win 10 #654. The author’s reply was
And yes, applications that do not speak JACK natively will not be able to talk to JACK anymore.
So that’s why I couldn’t get it working. It’s a bit unfortunate that this wasn’t explained in the JACK on Windows page.
Anyway, I downloaded an older version from here: https://github.com/jackaudio/jackaudio.github.com/releases. I chose JACK 2 Version 1.9.10.
After following the instructions above (Using JACK on Windows), I can now route audio between DAWs. For Renoise I chose the JackRouter ASIO driver, and I can send audio in to Renoise from another DAW by using a Line-In device and selecting the channel ‘In 1 & 2’.
By default, this set-up provides two stereo pairs of audio channels, but this can be increased by editing the following files as administrator
C:\Program Files (x86)\Jack\32bits\JackRouter.ini
C:\Program Files (x86)\Jack\64bits\JackRouter.ini
and increasing the input and output values inside the ‘IO’ section, from 4 to 32, say, which provides 16 stereo channels.
There is a small amount of latency created with doing this, but this can be worked around in the settings inside the DAWs.
I find this really interesting because it opens up many possibilities to use various DAWs at the same time, combining the strengths of each. It allows you to do various things such as, for example:
- draft a piece in Renoise, using MIDI instruments to control Bitwig instruments
- record the Renoise MIDI out into a clip inside Bitwig and use that to directly control the Bitwig instruments
- use the Renoise sequencer for precise control of some instruments, while using the Bitwig sequencer for recording and playing back MIDI keyboard entry
- use another DAW for effects or mastering (e.g. FL Studio)
I’m still experimenting with this but it looks like it can open up a lot of possibilities.

Monthly Renoise Centric Challenge 2021/01 (aka The Synthesized Bus Driver)
Happy new year ! Welcome to the second edition of the monthly Renoise centric challenge !
Code name of the challenge is : The Synthesized Bus Driver
The monthly challenge is not a competition, it’s a way to share practice and expand creativity together.
You can spend a few minutes to a whole month of work on it, it’s up to you. If you can share your .xrns that would be great (demo users welcome), but you can also share a rendered audio file.
Even if you feel stupid about your creation, please share it, someone may learn something about it, you never know.
The produced piece of music must comply with a few constraints that will change every month. Sometimes the constraints may appear stupid, but this is what gives some fun and push creativity. Feel free to not honor some constraints if it helps your creativity.
For this month, I picked 2 of the most voted constraints on the poll, which are :
- The theme of the song is “BUS DRIVER” (I clicked the Feeling lucky button of wordnik.com)
- Craft all your beats and instruments with a synthesizer, no presets allowed. You can use Renoise capabilities or a VST.
Post your piece (or your pieces) whenever you want (even work in progress), I’m very excited to listen to it.
Previous issues of the challenge :
- 2020/12 : 1 minute piece derived from a single sample with .xrns file less than 435kb
If you have new smart and dumb ideas for February, please answer this thread and I will suggest them for next month.
Open Renoise, press keys, click, copy, paste, turn knobs !

Lo-fi hiphop beat made with renoise
Support to the developers!
I want to thank all the guys behind the Renoise, for such a wonderful tool! It’s cheap, it’s on steroids, community is great (well, the most of the time)… and pretty much everything else that goes on here… The list goes on forever…
i have one request for the future:
Help us by showing us how we can help you dedicate more resources for the Renoise development (bring up the price, some donation box, or whatever, really)
Thank you once again @taktik! & dear Renoisers!
Happy holidays to all!!

Renoise is not recognizing plugins
Earlier this year i posted this:
Kontakt Player difficulties Help, Support & Bugs
Hey, just bought a VST for use with kontakt player. After I installed Kontakt player and located the .dll file so that Renoise could recognize it, it worked for around an hour. now Renoise will not recognize Kontakt.dll despite my attempts to reinstall kontakt player, as in, Renoise can no longer find the .dll
Any advice? has this happened to anyone else?
I recently purchased Shreddage Serpent which requires kontakt player, but no matter how many times I reinstall it to different places and change the renoise VST directories I have not been successful. I also have AIR hybrid 3 which was working fine before I reinstalled renoise. now, Renoise cannot find that either.
I am very frustrated with the lack of consistency in Renoise when It comes to plugin recognition. renoise flat out refuses to recognize kontakt.dll (it will recognize komplete kontrol even when it isn’t installed???)
any and all help is appreciated

New song - delay!
I just accidentally lost my 30 minutes of work. I pressed somehow combination ctrl+n and right after i somehow confirmed dialog that I don’t want to save song. It was fraction of a second.
Of course now I’m smarter and setup auto-backup, but maybe, just maybe, adding small delay to “no” button will be a good idea?

[Doc Error] SampleFader property: .devices[].mode (.scaling)
R3.2.4 x64 (Renoise.Song.API.lua)
I think it is necessary to change the following property inside the documentation:
renoise.song().instruments[].sample_modulation_sets[].devices[].mode, _observable
to
renoise.song().instruments[].sample_modulation_sets[].devices[].scaling, _observable
– renoise.SampleFaderModulationDevice (inherits from renoise.SampleModulationDevice)

renoise.SampleFaderModulationDevice.SCALING_LINEAR
renoise.SampleFaderModulationDevice.SCALING_EXP_SLOW
renoise.SampleFaderModulationDevice.SCALING_EXP_FAST
-------- Properties
– Mode.
renoise.song().instruments[].sample_modulation_sets[].devices[].mode, _observable
-> [enum = OPERATOR]
– Start & Target value.

renoise.song().instruments[].sample_modulation_sets[].devices[].to

Note: Perhaps you prefer the name .mode for the SampleFader device property (modify it internally, instead of modifying the documentation). The LFO and Velocity Tracking use the .mode name also.
@taktik should check out this issue.

Ghost notes from midi controller
Is there a way to play ghost notes with an external midi controller?
I have a following use case in mind:
- Define phrase with rythm/arpeggio sequence using a single note (e.g. C in different octaves)
- Improvise a melody by shifting the running phrase with a midi keyboard
- Record improvisation in a pattern
Ghost notes are important in this case as we want not to screw up the rhythm by retriggering the phase on every note.

Jump 16 rows and select track?
I’ve just bought a license for v3.2 recently. Though for years I’ve been using older demo versions of renoise 2.x purely for midi sequencing my Akai samplers. I prefer to make jungle music at a 8LPB and 512 blocks and so I jump around the block quite a bit.
As soon as I got everything set up how I wanted and started making a track, I realized that using shift + page down/up doesn’t work to select parts of tracks and jump down rows simultaneously like it did in the older versions. Is there binding to make that hotkey work? or am I screwed and have to go back to older versions?

What hardware are you using with Renoise, if any?
I’m curious about this as I’m totally in the box at the moment (guitar excepted) but thinking about a Minitaur for bass and maybe something else to mess around with on the couch and to double up if I want to use some MIDI keys.
Do you have a MIDI controller? Using hardware as pure sample fodder? Things synced up with Renoise and feeding their audio into the program? Renoise purely as a hardware sequencer?
I’d also like to hear if you’re pure PC keyboard and mouse only

Filter out unwanted Midi while in pattern Record mode
Hi,
I’m Using a QY700 as my main Midi Clock and sequencer, and I use Renoise as a sampler which I trigger the samples in it via QY700. The problem is when I want to record from My midi Controller in Renoise, as I switch on the record mode Renoise also registers/records the Midi coming from QY, So to speak Renoise doesn’t care about the channel from which it receives Midi. Everything in my setup is on a different Midi Channel. Is there a way to tell renoise to just record from this specific Midi Channel once in Record mode? Sort a Midi filter thing…
Update: Or another way to put it: Is there a way to disable record mode on the individual tracks separately? In renoise everything goes in record mode once in record mode. It’s kind of weird.
Thanks

Triano - The making of
Hi Renoise forum!
Me and my wife are making ourselfs a christmas present.
Let us introduce the Triano!
It’s a midi controlled claviature made from a 100 year old harmonium.
We picked it apart 1 week ago and now we have 12 keys working.
It sends midi commands over the local network when a key is pressed.
To know when a key is pressed we use a microswitch.
Everything is written with javascript!
Our current status is that we are waiting for 6 more raspberry pi zeroes for the rest of the keys.
