I was exploring the convolver and found some real interesting impulse responses over at seaweed factory. Renoise convolver is pretty amazing.

Sample packs.

Does anyone know of a nice free impulse response collection, specifically hardware impulse responses?

1] Group a track

2] Collapse your group

3] Run snippet and watch a strange thing happen. From the snippet you would expect to end up back at the top picture, but Group 3 has become like a normal sequencer track in appearance. Clicking the triangle on group 3 does fix things again though.

testpad snippet

--song local song = renoise.song() --loop backwards through tracks for track = #song.tracks,1,-1 do song:track(track).collapsed = false end

I’m trying to stream Renoise on Windows to Twitch using OBS or SLOBS. The problem I have is that there is no sound coming out to OBS (or slobs) at all.

I used to use Voxengo Recorder to create an audio route to my soundcard and managed to get sound into OBS that way. But now that one either creates a single echo or the sound stutter like crazy while playing. I’ve tried different all different kind of setting, but nothing sounds ok.

Is there another way to get audio to OBS from Renoise? Any plugin suggestions?

The BPM, LPB and TPL automations in the Master track only update once per line and so do not show sub-lines in the GUI. But the GUI only correctly updates between this and the regular version when switching either to or from an active automation.

Hello all. I’m getting some weird behaviour with sysex callbacks on long sysex messages. I wanted to code up a way to detect a Push by getting the standard MIDI sysex id request reply, then parsing it to check it matches a pattern.

The problem i am running into is that a message longer than 24 bytes seems to get split in two and the callback fires twice, with the first 24 bytes then the remainder (11 more bytes in the case of Push 1 which sends a 35 byte id reply).

The really annoying thing about Push is that it has two MIDI ports, but when you send an id request to either one, both respond to it! Madness. Anyway, i have it working ok, not perfectly, but it detects that Push has responded. I’m just capturing the 24 byte table and parsing that, but i would love to know whether i’m doing anything wrong.

Code is q ugly, but i just pulled out the function as it was when i discovered what was going on. I have rewritten it now to be a bit nicer.

function Push:findDeviceBySysex() local id, result, t_input, t_output = {}, {}, {} for i, device in ipairs(renoise.Midi.available_input_devices()) do t_input[i] = renoise.Midi.create_input_device(device, nil, function (reply) id[device] = reply print(t_input[i].name, id, os.clock()) rprint(id[i]) -- Close the port after callback gets fired so lose the last 11 bytes. -- If the close() is commented out, then the reply is set to the last message response only (remaining 11 bytes) as callback is fired twice. t_input[i]:close() end ) end for _, device in ipairs(renoise.Midi.available_output_devices()) do t_output = renoise.Midi.create_output_device(device) t_output:send(Midi.sysex.id_request) t_output:close() end print("hello", id) rprint(id) -- parse reply and set stuff here, blah blah blah, etc. nothing to do with the MIDI part. end

I’m thinking i could just find a way to join the two tables. But maybe there is an answer? I started printing the clock time to see if it was anything to do with sending and receiving MIDI too fast, but it seems it gets buffered so that was not the problem. Thankfully, as i had plans to start using coroutines and all sorts of nonsense to sleep the call to close until the message was definitely sent…!

Edit: still on V3.2.1 as i have an old Mac running osx10.11.6.

I have recently started using the plugin Valhalla Supermassive with Renoise and have noticed a very strange issue. I know it’s 3rd party software, but I don’t experience the issue when using the VST with other DAWs (tested in Cakewalk) and was wondering if anyone might be able to shed some light on what’s going on. I have Googled the issue and am coming up empty.

Description: reverb will suddenly cut out after a few seconds if no sample is playing on that track. The amount of time this takes is seemingly random (different results when playing the same pattern a few times). Then, if I set the volume on the track to -inf and trigger another sample, the reverb suddenly comes back in. It happens both when I playback in Renoise and in rendered wav files.

This is quite difficult to explain and reproduce (even for me, as I said it’s seemingly random) and so I have uploaded an example file where this happens here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tbird0t5k04q7a2/valhalla-supermassive-test.xrns?dl=1

In pattern 1 a sample plays and Supermassive builds up some reverb. In pattern 2, the sample has ended and the reverb slowly dies down until at some point it suddenly cuts out. This happens for me anywhere between line 20 and 35. In pattern 3, the volume of the track is set to -inf and a sample is triggered, and the reverb suddenly reappears.

If anyone has any idea what might be happening, or if anyone wants to download that file and confirm whether or not the issue happens for them, I’d greatly appreciate it.

Renoise use the currently selected phrase as default phrase. Sometimes, when i editing my phrases, i forget to set it back to my preferred default one. Would be better, when this is an extra option, so i dont need set it back.

Not sure if others run into this a lot but my ASIO Drivers do run into probs regularly - not just in renoise it’s an Audient problem.

Often I just need to Reinitialize, so the reqest is either to add a reinitilize button to this dialog, or a ‘Go To Prefs’ button that will open prefs on the audio tab.

Would ease the frustration a bit when this happens.

I constantly use the CTRL+P command to select, copy and paste a short sequence.

Would be ace if this workflow could be automated into a FX Command that automatically copies and updates everything that is on the lines above it to the lines below it.

The Jacksons - I’ll Be There 1983 seek that up on YouTube,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_NfBJSW7Zc

This came from the Jacksons that used software I wrote as The Trammps with a true friend at that time with the name of Elvis Presley that was called Tempo Music source code on the MIDI discs 19789. We wrote its first version in 15 months 24 7 codeing on computers as first stable version. This program could include the complete program itself and the samples and the song on one disc and the computer and to tape and back. You could copy everything you liked of it and spread it. We then released its test version to have all songs made with it as Elvis Presley and also pretending that we don’t make software like that. The program to have this incredibly complicated sampled music is nowerdays completed as PG Music Band In A Box and it costs some but it is worth it. O. I made all music by that time with computer software smth Tempo Music that I wrote I have a license of the program of this 2020 time too it was somewhere on the MIDI disc 19789 tempo music source or smth made all music for The Trammps my then project that already had too many releases - Barry White - Biky’s Dance The Night Away (Part 16) together with friends like Barry White and Rae Nelson on bass guitar sample - The Motions that copied and erased the tape i copied from the computer - all made by Four Seasons creator EatMe.

All the copyright shit robot tells these artists and me I can’t upload it because idk they can’t find me to permit them well it’s free to copy fak how am I going to get this uploaded again for download I don’t have the tapes anymore

I also want to help people to copy their tapes if needed.

It said push enter to install to disc and could later to tape but there was also a part that could upgrade it into newer i386 computer systems things.

Two features that I’d like to see in Renoise

1.) Start Recording on Note Input (stolen from FL Studio ;))

FL has this feature where playback/recording is only starting when you start entering a midi note. I have found this to be a really fun and useful feature.

2.) Non overdub record mode

recording mode where the playhead erases all the notes it passes and doesn’t overdub notes when recording in a looped pattern.

anyone else got some good ideas?

Hi everyone! Here is a track I completed recently using Renoise if anybody is interested - I named it Fernweh because I recently learned that is the German word for longing for faraway and unseen places, and that definitely fit the story I was trying to tell. Hope you enjoy.

cheers everyone

Well: Nothing to say about this, especially because this was just improvised today.

Im looking for drum synth vsti recommendations.

Not giant 40GB sample packs with sampler software ontop of them as a vsti, but actual drum synths with adjustable parameters.

So far my choices are.

FXpansions Tremor,
SugarBytes drumcomputer
Microtonic

They all look pretty decent, not bad at all, but that seems to be about it. There isnt much choice as far as I can tell after searching. Im not sure they have the nice fatness and punchiness of hardware drum machines like vermona or even oldschool ones like drumfire or even mattel?!

Are there better ones out there or do the pros use ‘actual synths’ intead to sculpt their drum sounds, such as FM8 or something like that?

Another one, ruismaker FM, which will not run on my computer because its only available as an audio unit sounds pretty excellent to me for drum sound design. Although im not a fan of the ‘euclidean’ sequencer being the only option for sequencing, it seems like a fast way to hear the sounds your tweaking inside a rhythm without actually writing one. Shame there is no vsti ruismaker FM. It sounds pretty good, nice and simple, but good and useful.

Any other drumsynth vsti which are worth checking?

Is tremor actually the best one, with its ‘cloud oscillators’, even if its discontinued?

If I set up my drumpad to send a different midi channel per pad, should i be able to trigger up to 16 different vsti instrument instances in renoise without any trouble?

My Idea is to make a super pro FM drum synth with 8 instances of Chipsynth MD…so that I can tap a drumpad, tweak the patch in instrument 1’s chipsynth MD, play another pad, tweak the patch in instrument 2’s chipsynth md instance, and so on.

Is there any problem with this setup? I just set each instance to recieve a different midi channel, and set the pads up to send a different midi channel per pad?

Chipsynth MD will be excellent for the bugged out FM synth drums. Good way to build some original, tonal drumkits. Finally, after sound design is done, sampling each drum sound and setting up the samples as a drumkit as usual with renoise fx chains and modulation sets per sample…with the new excellent drum envelopes

I was thinking of spending some money and buying an elektron cycles for FM drums and bass tones, but when I was checking the reviews I became suspicious and skeptical.

Do you think the name ‘cycles’ actually implies that this ‘FM drum synth’ is actually a rompler containing samples of many single cycle waveforms, rather than ‘real oscillators’?

I was watching the reviews and it looks like the pitch knob could be carefully callibrated to only go an octave up, an octave down to hide the aliasing which can occur when pitching up a single cycle waveform sample really high, or the ‘fartiness’ which can occur when pitching them down really low.

So if anyone knows if it is true oscillators or sampled single cycle waveforms inside that box please let me know.

Also, has anyone had any success plugging a drumpad into it and playing the FM drum sounds live from drumpads? Thats the purpose I want it for. The tiny drumpads on the box look sub par for live play…though overall the box is enticing, Im skeptical about making a purchase before I know.
