Renoise Forum

My favorite band of all time!!!
Daft Punk

Longtime publicist Kathryn Frazier confirmed that the Parisian group has broken up and that the video represents their statement on the end of their nearly three-decade collaboration; at press time no reason was given for the split.

Hi,

Ableton 11 was just published, and it looks to me like a very complete DAW. They basically added MPE support, but in a very detailed way, comping, and a lot of nice details. So there now are 16 macro parameters (is it possible that this will have an influence on Renoise, too?), harmonical stuff, the gui on 4k macos is fast as never before even with uneven scaling factors, and there are really good new dsp devices, for example a superb sounding reverb.

My 2 cents here: For me, these additions seem to make Ableton very complete. I already have Bitwig, but I was not so satisfied about the feature direction it went, not focussing on these general DAW features. Seems to me that Ableton does listen to the requests. Also the bundled Ableton dsp is extremely high quality. Bitwig, too, but still lacking of some elemental stuff (while the grid is a superb niche synth system of course).

The only thing I would miss in Ableton is the super fancy modulation system like in Bitwig. But with a bunch of workarounds and post-installation, you also can add meta signal LFOs to parameters and so on. Though the whole concept of Bitwig of course is way more smart and comfortable, focussing on a receiver-concept instead sender-concept. I barely have any long time experience with Ableton, so I don’t know about limitations.

What do you think about it? And if you already have Bitwig, is it still attractive to you?

I loaded an old instrument and for some reason it doesn’t play
I deleted all the contained samples and routings except one , still no luck
The first instrument is refusing to play any sound if I assign it to a certain output in the effects chain tab
The second one does ( same procedure )
what am I overlooking ??

When zooming in on a very long sample, the loop/slice markers can often be displayed in the wrong position or even disappear from view entirely. The closer the marker is to the end of the waveform, the more severe the errors are. What’s bizarre is that the inaccuracy is present even when fully zoomed in at the level of individual samples.

The ‘renoise.song().instruments[].samples[].loop_end’ property is inconsistent with the ‘loop_start’ and ‘slice_markers’ properties. Those two have their values as the waveform sample value + 1, while ‘loop_end’ is just the value.

Either I warped to a parallel universe overnight or something with Renoise has changed in terms of trying to change its default/pattern fonts. For about a good hour and a half, I’ve been rifling through the forums in the hopes that somebody posted something about it - nope. All of these threads are years old. I’m already aware of changing the files in the C:\Program Files\Renoise 3.3.0\Resources\Skin\Fonts directory, but then Renoise just doesn’t boot up when the “correct” changes are applied. Yes, I’ve put my intended .fon files in the same directory; yes, I’ve changed both Config.xml and PatternConfig.xml to redirect towards the .fon files; can anyone point me in the right direction?

Reason I’m doing this is because for the majority of my life, font customization in various trackers gives the daw a personal flair.

I have installed ChordLord 1.9.226

There is a new version in the Tools section
2.01.226

Also, the tool name (in the tools section) contains the version number. That should just be ChordLord.

Hi there

I have Renoise v3.2.2 running on a Windows 7 PC. I want to try out v3.3.1 as I have a couple of VST3-only plugins. I also, however have a ton of doubled-up ones on my system, ie VST2 and VST3 versions of the same plugin, as when I purchased the plugins the installer prompted me to save both types.

I know when Renoise loads it scans for new plugins and obviously changes some internal setting so that it knows where to find these during future sessions. I see a few users have had problems with v3.3.1, with various VST3 plugins producing erratic behaviours and VST3s and VST2s clashing a bit. What I want to know is if I install and run v3.3.1, and find it doesn’t work so well for me, can I just go back to v3.2.2, or will the fact that I’ve run v3.3.1 mean Renoise v3.2.2 will now be confused as to where to locate plugins?

I can see older installations of Renoise on my machine, so I know it doesn’t delete them, but I just want to know if the older version is “unharmed” by any VST scanning that might take place in the new version.

And is there a release date for 3.3.2?

Thanks, everyone!

No undo with Synthedit VSTi’s in Renoise 3.3.1
Build jan 11 2021

Decided to make a bugreport, since I really need that ctrl-z.
It is kinda essential for my workflow to try random things and undo them.

Steps to reproduce look like this:

Launch Renoise
Load any old synthedit VSTI (for example VstSpeek3 or Dream64. I’m talkin VSTI from around 2014 here).
Do any action, with any instrument in any part of Renoise. (for example cut/paste)
Hit ctrl-z

Expected results:
Action undone

Actual results:
Message ‘nothing to undo’
Action NOT undone

If needed I can make a video.
You know what is odd? It breaks Renoise everywhere.
I mean if it just broke any action related to the VSTI I could somehow grasp that.
It being code that is more than seven years old, developped with middleware dated back 2005.
But the rather odd thing is that once the VSTI is loaded, undo breaks on a global scale within Renoise,
from the sampler to the pattern editor.
And yes: I tried running Renoise as an admin, even tried compatability mode with Vista.
There are two threads related to this:

Undo not working in an old track Help, Support & Bugs Hi I remember this happening from years ago - loading old tracks and undo not doing anything. What is the checklist of things I need to go through to resolve this? Thanks midierror Undo acts weird (when old Synthedit plugins are loaded) Help, Support & Bugs Loaded project with same vstfx and vsti’s in both 3.1 and 3.2, 3.1 no issues with “undoing” things changed in step editor, 3.2 gives result “nothing to undo” and the second time pressing “undo” “change value was undone” ? in 3.1, undo works, in 3.2 undo does nothing.

heyo,

thought I’d share this even if it’s a bit simple…
easy parallel compression for kicks, snares, bass, what-have-you within the instrument editor

dial in your frequency ranges to taste, and feel free to further effect individual bands. really useful for pumping up percussion sounds and/or bass sound design

cheers

Hello everyone, I have this problem from 3 months since I bought my new desktop. The probem is; I’m having cracking/crackling/popping sounds/noises while watching videos on web or listening music with Spotify or playingback audio in my DAW (Studio One 5).

The crackles are getting much heavier and frequent while there is mouse activity (like moving the cursor around GUI on Youtube or adjusting plugins in my DAW)

Here is my system specs:

• M-Audio M-Track Plus (MKII)

• AMD Ryzen 2600X

• Gigabyte B450M-H Motherboard

• MSI RX470

• 16gb ram

• 500gb M2 SSD

I also should note that I don’t have any problem when I’m using the same USB audio interface with my 6 years old laptop. (Both Windows 10)

The problem is dissapearing when the M audio drivers are not installed. But I can’t use Studio One without it, so I’m also stucked there.

I tried to use Asio4All and FL Studio Asio but the latency is not workable in recording situations.

Here is the things I’ve tried so far:

• Incrased the buffer size to maximum

• Made sure sample rate is same everywhere (24 bit, 44100 Hz)

• System power management %100 cpu

• USB power save disabled

• PCIe set to GEN3 in BIOS

• C-State disabled in BIOS

• CPU underclocked

• Changed the GPU (it was gtx770 and now it’s RX470 and no change in crackles)

It was a wide gap between one producer of software and music.

EatMe has decided to split up, was released in official press leak earlier this morning.

According to the statements on Twitter, that immediately got deleted,
it was “supposed to be made for common good”.

“EatMe will continue to release music and software. It’s just that we don’t seem to work together anymore, and that is why EatMe has decided to split up.”

“It was a long and tough decision to make. EatMe were good friends for years and we produced over 350 songs together. There were a lot of music making and programming activities from the side of EatMe, and it’s hard to split up the main team of one person.”

EatMe is very vague over when the next album will be produced now that EatMe has split up.

Hello to all.

I would like to know if it’s possible to listen all midi devices availables without the open function? Like in the Renoise midi remote.

Infos are availables in Renoise but when i use lua i must open the device i want to listen and then the device become unavailable for something else (which is really annoying for my project).

Just need to receive the data to trigger some functions, don’t need to send anything to the device.

Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks for any help.

First I only used samples, then I moved into VST:s, and now I’ve got my first external synth - an Arturia Mircofreak - ever. The problem I have with it is to get into a workflow using it with Renoise. So I thought I’d ask here how you use external synths (or other sound producing equipment) with Renoise?

I tried recording bits and pieces and using them a samples, but found it tricky to play it synced and in tempo to what Renoise is playing. Using it as a MIDI-device only I can only play one intstrument/setting. Also. getting it to the right BPM, and in synced with the BMP, seems a bit cumbersum. Can I set Renoise to send a MIDI-clock to the device? Like a Master/Slave thingie?
