Hello, I’m working on a pretty big track with quite a lot of Kontakt instances going on.

My CPU usage is almost always hitting 95% with each playback, which is honestly pretty tiring to deal with.
Is there a way to freeze tracks, or make the performance better?

Midinous is an standalone software MIDI sequencer.
I’m trying to use it with Renoise 3.4.1 on Windows 10.

Midinous creates a virtual MIDI device (or more specifically two of them, the second one is for optional master clock) that it sends the MIDI data through. As far as I know there is nothing non-standard about it and it seems to be sending the data correctly. I was able to make it work with Reaper, it controlled a VST instrument without issues or special settings.

I would like to use it with Renoise, but don’t know how.
I selected the Midinous devices as MIDI inputs in settings, loaded a VST instrument into instrument slot 00, selected it and tested that it plays sound within Renoise (using standard keyboard input), selected the main Midinous device as input in the instrument’s MIDI tab.

At this moment I expected the instrument to start receiving MIDI data (it was set to receive all channels), but nothing plays and no data turn up in the MIDI Monitor. I tried pressing play and enabling edit mode (thinking maybe it works as “record arm” in Reaper), but nothing happened. The MIDI control “lights” in the top right aren’t blinking either.

Since I don’t normally work with MIDI I have no idea if this is a bug or if I’m just doing some stupid mistake when setting it up. However, as mentioned above, doing pretty much the same thing in Reaper works and data is received correctly.

Could somebody help?

Here’s a screenshot of my Renoise window with settings opened, which should show what all the relevant settings are set to:

Anyone got the CDP Interface to work under win10?

I took out_CDProg and linked the CDP interface there and restarted renoise and also the computer but got: An output file was not produced - Check your settings

is there a way to line up a song in renoise like you can in a DAW like FL studio to recreate the song piece by piece? when i used FL i used to put the song i wanted to learn from into the playlist and rebuild the song with my own samples to learn new styles of creating music, can this be done in renoise somehow?

Hey all, I just discovered this new product from google, currently in testing phase that is a prompt-based AI, (like chatGPT), generating some music.

examples - signup page

I didn’t try it myself just saw a few examples here and there online and signed up to have an early access but didn’t get it yet.

I wanted to open this topic, first to ask if some of you already tried it, but also to open discussions on this subject, let it be related directly to this product, any kind of usage, what do you think of it, etc…
I may post some more about it myself once I would have tried it

Just a quick question,in the old speed system,what are the equivalents in lpb,for example speed 3 to lpb. Or is that a nonsense question?Speed 3 was 3 ticks per line i think?But im just wandering how it translates to lpb.

We have the option to show the song comment window after loading. Now I came up with the idea of ​​implementing a cover photo, clickable links, social media icons and other images like a “small website” to provide information to the listener.

Greetings to everybody.

I wanted to express my views on the value of business planning in creating a successful and long-lasting company. For entrepreneurs, a well-written business plan acts as a road map, directing them through the many phases of their endeavor. It aids in outlining their objectives, plans, and financial predictions, offering a clear path for achievement.

Professional Business Plans are essential for drawing in investors, obtaining money, and building reputation in the marketplace. Entrepreneurs may demonstrate their knowledge of the market, industry trends, and competitive environment through a thorough business plan.

A business plan also serves as a guide for making decisions, allowing entrepreneurs to weigh risks, spot opportunities, and adjust to shifting conditions. It offers a structure for monitoring development, establishing benchmarks, and determining success.

Entrepreneurs may take use of the experience and market understanding of professional business plan writers to develop a strong and persuasive strategy. These professionals are aware of the components needed for a strong business strategy, such as market research, financial forecasts, and competitive positioning.

professional business plans are essential for building a strong and sustainable business. They serve as a strategic tool that enables entrepreneurs to navigate challenges, attract investors, and achieve their long-term goals. Whether you’re starting a new venture or looking to refine your existing business, investing in a professional business plan is a worthwhile step towards success.

I would love to hear your thoughts and experiences with professional business plans. Please feel free to share your insights and ask any questions you may have.

I know there are some old topics on this but I just want to make sure: There’s still no way to jump from one slice marker to the next?

This would be really helpful since Renoise and REDUX are (somewhat inexplicably) still very bad at setting markers by themselves. Zooming in and out and scrolling through a loop manually is extremely tedious and clicking on the sample on the sidebar brings up the isolated sample with the slice marker on the left screen margin, so it offers no way to adjust the slice marker backwards in the timeline.

If I could jump from one slice marker to the next, showing it centered on the screen that would shave literally 80% off my slicing time. Am I missing something of is there really no way to do this?

Hey all, I’m working on a tool to give zoomed-out views of the struct of a song in renoise. (see below)

To acheive this I have a popup window where I redraw the tracks x patterns with their blocks.

my question is: am I missing some sort of vb:object that can be drawn in a grid and colored? — right now it seems that the only thing I can use to grid ‘images’ in the GUI (grids of colorable blocks) is buttons; textfields, aligners, etc all have their respective ‘styles’ but non can have their colors set directly like buttons.

I’d rather use something more low impact than a button, because I don’t need them to be buttons; just a display - would even be open to color text for an ASCII grid type display.

any thoughts?

Hey! Does anyone know the typical tuning (I mean, like by scale degrees) of various drums?

E.g., iirc kick drums are typically the root note, and snares often the fifth but in not sure, and am curios as to things like hi hata etc… Is there any good guide out there or do folks here know?

Colorcoded - a patch for starters (notes):
Hi! This is a simple color coded patch for beginners. The four colors are YELLOW, GREY, WHITE & RED. This is what they represent:
Yellow are gates/pulses (the rhythm)
Grey are CV (control voltages) that control pitch and modulations
White are audio for left channel audio
Red are audio for right channel audio

I’m wondering if there is another way to play more than one instrument at the same time via the MIDI input to layer sounds. So far, I’ve manually set the MIDI input to the same channel for each instrument and vice versa, which is not a very quick workflow.

Hello dear friends,
Recently, I was working on the next cover of my new release in a graphic editor, and the following thought came to me: Why is there no Global “Lock” button on channels and tracks in any DAW? It would be great if Renoise became the first DAW to have such a button on every channel. I think that such a function is very necessary for any producer, since I personally work on large projects, and sometimes the number of channels or tracks reaches 100. In such arrangements, you can accidentally hit any parameter of any channel, inadvertently turn up or down the volume, hit some either the regulator from the filter, or move a pattern to the wrong place, maybe delete it by mistake …
Such a button will serve as a lock that will disable the entire channel and prevent any accidental modifications while the “Lock” button is enabled, as in graphic editors, when we Lock a layer so as not to miss with it.

I would like to draw the attention of the developers to take this suggestion into account, because, in my opinion, such a button will simply make life easier for many producers who often work on huge projects.

There doesn’t seem to be any way to slide or interpolate between the device’s parameter values in the pattern editor fx column. I’m talking about a fx command for internal hi res, sample rate slides. I’d like to be able to slide and/or interpolate between values just like with samples. Old school vst and midi automation please:)

Hellooo,

First off, I’m completely new to ambisonics and have no idea what I’m talking about. So, in general I’m trying to actually wrap my head around how ambisonics and Renoise can even work together (ie. In general do people just slap on a conversion VST on the MST? What’s a common interface people use for all the outs? etc.)

Ultimately what I’m really hoping/dreaming is that there is a way to connect tracker automation to create rhythmic ambisonic shifts in space. Does anyone have experience in this realm? I suppose you would need a VST that accepts midi data for spatial changes?

edit: if there are specific VSTs you’ve found work nicely with Renoise for conversion I’d love to know!

thx! -e

Hello Everyone,

I know this idea is old but why not use this smart solution? When it comes to waveform automation, it would be nice to know where you are.

Features:

• Waveform switch
• Display controls for alpha, full-/half-wave, amplitude (vertical zoom)
• Real-time display adjustment for amplitude
• Synchronized with Autoseek

I tried scanning for my vst files and nothing showed up. On windows I usually have an option on this screen to change the search directory but there isn’t on linux for me. So I tried to move my vst to a directory that it already searches for, but for some reason it is still not finding my vst plugins. Here is a screenshot

In this screenshot when I ran renoise in the terminal it shows that it looked in a directory where my vst folder was, labeled usr/local/lib/vst/

And here is what is inside the folder

I’m not sure how to fix this issue I tried looking through the FAQ document for linux, any help would be appreciated
