Opening the MIDI dialogue box

February 23, 2022 - 22:15

I know this is way beyond any long time user, but the guide doesnt seem to have the shortcut - Figure it’s best to put this up - unsure how to direct the concern. Welcome to delete this post after rectification as I have totally lost the MIDI dialogue box… And the way there manually since updating.

Sorry and Thank you!

Komplete Kontrol - instuments load standalone, but in Renoise nope

February 23, 2022 - 18:00

Windows 10
Renoise 3.3.2
Komplete Kontrol 2.6.7 (R1)

You can load and play the instruments in the standalone, but in Renoise, you get this following error:
Loading Issue
Plug-in not found.
Please open the standalone application to rescan, or rescan manually in the Plug-in preferences.

Sadly I’ve followed the instructions to no avail. Any ideas? Any hidden knowledge?

Native Instruments Super 8 (VST3) Not showing in plug-in list

February 23, 2022 - 17:56

Renoise 3.3.2
Super 8 version 2.1.0 (Installed Native Access)

This VST3 will not show up in the instrument plug-in list. Sibling products such as Kontakt, Massive, and Massive X do. I have reinstalled the product and have run the plug-in rescan in Preferences to not avail. Any suggestions?

According to Native Access it is installed at C:\Program Files\Native Instruments\Super 8
…and I see the VST3 file as: C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\Super 8.vst3

Any insight or ideas would be helpful! I love that instrument.

Renoise API Bug? app_idle_observable:add_notifier causing permanent IO access?

February 23, 2022 - 16:53

Found something interesting. When a tools is adding an idle notifier, Renoise is heavily accessing the folder of the tool. I used process monitor to check it:

Source code of the tool:

local app = renoise.app()
local tool = renoise.tool()

local function appIdleEvent()
end

tool:add_menu_entry {
name = “Main Menu:Tools:App idle trigger …”,
invoke = function()
if not tool.app_idle_observable:has_notifier(appIdleEvent) then
tool.app_idle_observable:add_notifier(appIdleEvent)
end
end
}

com.duftetools.Test.xrnx (619 Bytes)

Maybe its related to this issue: Slow plugin loading (previously worked fine )

Delay column and pattern fx commands

February 23, 2022 - 07:17

I was under the impression (don’t know why) that the pattern fx column(s) was applied always at the start of a line irrespective of any delay column value applied to the start of a note. Is that really the case though?

I’m going to use the ‘CXY’ cut pattern fx command. I’ll use a 1 second +1ve sample:

I’m going to render this sample out on a line at 120BPM / 4LPB / 12TPL:

00 C-4 00 .. -- -C00

I get:

Seems ok. [There you get the infamous no user control ‘anti-click’ when it cuts.]

Now let’s apply a delay to the note:

00 C-4 00 .. 10 -C00

I get on rendering:

Hmm ok(ish)?? It has delayed the note, I’m interested though that it has also applied a cut.

Let’s increase the delay to:

00 C-4 00 .. 80 -C00

Render line out:

Ok, delay correct, but get the feeling that Renoise is really trying to figure out what to do there.

Let’s increase the delay further:

00 C-4 00 .. E0 -C00

Render out:

Ok, delay correct and we are back around a 1 tick ‘body’ before fade/cut/anti click.

Finally with that delay value I’m going to increase the tick length by 1 before cut with:

00 C-4 00 .. E0 -C01

Render out:

Exactly the same sample/output as the previous one(?)

With the fx ‘cut’ command IDK. I’ll let you decide how much of a ‘edge case’ all this is. A post to consider what should really happen with a note delay and pattern effect on a line

Parameter automation status isn't updated when changing pattern

February 22, 2022 - 23:51

In the Automation List (to the left of the Automation Editor where you input automation points or curves) …

  1. a white automation icon is shown when there’s automation data for that parameter in another pattern than the one you currently seeing.
  2. a yellow automation icon is shown when there’s automation data for that parameter in the current pattern.
    At least, that’s the colors shown in my theme.

That’s all very useful. But the indicators are only reliable if the status (white or yellow?) is updated when you change patterns, either by playing or scrolling.

Problem is, the icons are not updated by pattern changes. So often, the icons simply indicate something wrong (that there’s automation data in the current pattern when there’s in fact none, or that there’s no automation data in the current pattern when there in fact is).

To update the status, you have to click something (e.g. another parameter) in the Automation List or the Automation Editor.

A small demonstration song with panning automation data in pattern 0 but none in pattern 1:
Open song, open Automation Editor, go to pattern 1 → the automation icon next to Panning should turn white but it doesn’t happen. Click on Width or something else in the Automation List → now the Panning icon turns yellow.
Automation List bug.xrns (3.7 KB)

This might not be an issue for most users, but as I use plugin automation a lot and need to keep track of where the data is, this is often causing some confusion.

XRNI specification - How to uniquely identify a sample?

February 22, 2022 - 21:22

Hi there,

I’m looking into adding Renoise/XRNI support to ConvertWithMoss.
Looking at the XML document of a Renoise instrument, I’m a bit puzzled though. It looks like there are two tags than can be used to identify the sample file (in the archive): Name and FileName. Neither contains the actual name in the archive though. FileName corresponds to the path of the source of the file. This is an absolute path and basically only useful on the host of the original author of the instrument.
The Name only contains the basename of the source file but since the files in the archive are prefixed with “Sample XY(basename).Z”, it does not uniquely identify a sample in some cases. So matching any filename that contains “basename” can result in multiple matches.

If the instrument author used two samples with the same basename (that is possible), how does Renoise/Redux (or any interpreter of the instrument file) uniquely identify the sample in the XRNI? Is there another tag/attribute/method I should use? Are the sample tags interpreted in order as they appear in the XML, e.g. first Sample tag corresponds to SampleData/Sample00, second to SampleData/Sample01? In which case the tags above would become almost meaningless.

Sorry if I posted to the wrong corner of the forum.

Fl Studio Renoise

February 22, 2022 - 15:25

To This may seem like a cop out but is anyone aware of any videos or documentation comparing how you would go about doing something in FL Studio but doing so in Renoise? I.E….In Fl Studio effects chains on tracks go up and down in succession but with Renoise I’m confused if it’s reading the effects left to right or opposite. Again, very new here so I’m just trying to learn as much as possible.

Thanks For Anything!

Hi everyone
I will use Renoise live for a mix and I’d like to know if it’s possible to redefine the starting point of a sample “on the fly” (I’m playing with a controller )

Thanks for your help

Windows 10: ultrawide screen management app not supported with Renoises detached windows?

February 21, 2022 - 14:06

I’ve just bought an ultrawide monitor to replace the dual monitor set-up and have installed the free powertoys windows app ( Microsoft PowerToys | Microsoft Docs ), which lets you divide the screen in (custom) parts in which you can drag windows/browser tabs to fit the section. It works through holding the shift key while dragging a window, which will light up the section in the background where you can drag it to.

Ideally I’d like the pattern editor in one part, the instrument editor in the middle part and the mixer in the last, but unfortunately this doesn’t seem to work. Manually resizing the windows every time isn’t ideal, and perhaps the detached windows from Renoise can be made to work somehow with the “fancy zones” option in the powertoys app?

Anyone have experience with the powertoys app and have gotten it to work with Renoise?

If this app is hard to support, then please consider an option/feature request to automatically detach windows and equally divide them across the available screen space!

Something like this, but perfectly divided, at the flick of a button woud be sweet;

New To Renoise, drums question

February 21, 2022 - 04:00

So I may be super stupid but I’m starting to get my feet wet with Renoise and I can already tell I love it coming from FL Studio,. My question is can i basically drag and drop samples onto specific alphabet keys to build a drum set and if so is there a quick way of doing that? Basically I’ve had to just go in and type out everything which seems like a pain in the ass for breaks but at least the left ctrl + # for steps is super useful. Any sort of help, insight, future life planning is welcome haha! Thanks!

Delayed Notes Trigger Key/Velocity Trackers At Line Start

February 18, 2022 - 12:29

https://www.youtube.com/embed/QVDuUgikDlo

Shouldn’t delayed notes trigger the Key/Velocity Trackers when the note is actually played rather than just at the start of the line?

Flawed midi input routing , mono button enabled for instrument interfers with incoming midi data

February 15, 2022 - 22:56

First of all ,in this example renoise is NOT used for sequencing and recording , only as a vst host and pc keyboard as midi controller for real time recording in the cirklon .
Here goes
I control a renoise instrument from the cirklon , the instrument is set to receive on midi channel 4 over cirklonusb , midi comes from a cirklon track set to usb , channel 4 .
Let’s assume this sequence s playing c3,d3 notes in the cirklon .
Works great , the instrument in renoise is set to mono ( for nice glide effects )
Now , I want to record another sequence in the cirklon , and this instrument will be receiving midi on channel 2 ( also from cirklon usb )
For this I create a dummy instrument in renoise which sole purpose is to use the pc keyboard for real time recording into the cirklon , the output of this dummy instrument is set to 'cirklon usb ', so the data will be recorded into the cirklon and it will then trigger the correct vst .( some necessary steps have to be made in the cirklon to prevent midi feedback but I got this all set correctly )
The big flaw with renoise is the following , when recording from the keyboard into the cirklon while the other instrument is being sequenced ( the one set to mono and playing c3,d3 ) it will cut off the notes c3,d3, of the new recorded instrument .
When the instruemnt is not set to mono , it wont cut off notes .
How can this even happen since they are both receiving on a different midi channel ?
Turning of the instrument mono setting solves the issue
When you look at the midi monitor wou will always see incoming midi notes , even when there is no midi input channel selected , I think that’s where the problem lies and or the MONO button in general
