Renoise Forum

I want the General Midi sounds, like in some Dungeon Synth or Ambient BM. I do not expect full concert hall quality fidelity - if it sounds like 2000s Casio it’s ok. I can throw some Chorus, Reverb and filter stuff.

zolyosfx - put everything else aside

Hello everyone
2nd track made in Renoise, which I’m proud of. It gives me a vibe of early 00s electronica and I was inspired to make this little loop to illustrate it. (Yes I played too much Racing Lagoon)

Hope you enjoy it !! Thanks for listening

Edit : typo

I’m not sure why this keeps happening every time I open a new folder in the samples library

Hi, I use a multitude of Stepper tools in Instruments. such as
Volume Stepper, Pitch Stepper, Pan Stepper, Drive Stepper, Cutoff Stepper, Resonance Stepper.

but, when i switch between the Steppers, the “DRAW” mode is always OFF. how do i force the “DRAW” mode to always be ON?

as regards shortcuts, these are the only things that reference Draw. one is for drawing in Automation, one is for i guess drawing in sample. i tried the Toggle Draw Mode in Sample Editor, while in Pitch Stepper External Editor, and nothing happened.

how do i proceed?

Hello,
I just released this experimental sample creation tool.

The oscillator simulates harmonic oscillations with different frequencies, phases,
and frequency ratios for the X, Y, and Z axes.

How Does It Work?

1. The oscillator has three “axes” (X, Y, Z), each oscillating at different frequencies (speeds of oscillation).
2. Users can set:

• Frequency: How fast the oscillator oscillates (e.g., higher frequency = higher pitch).
• Frequency Ratios: How the oscillation speeds differ between axes (e.g., the Y-axis can oscillate twice as fast as the X-axis).
• Phase: The starting position of the oscillation (e.g., whether the wave starts at its peak or zero).
• Feedback: How much the previous signal “feeds back” to influence the new one (this can create interesting effects like distorted sound).
• Attack and Decay: How quickly the signal rises (gets louder) and falls (gets quieter).
• further settings for my experimental FX section where I try out stereo echo and Helmholtz resonator

Whenever the Serum2 UI is open and there are animated elements, the Renoise UI starts to stutter and the Serum2 UI stutters as well. I know that Reason 13 had similar issues and they’re currently tweaking their VST3 implementation in the latest beta because of that. Apparently, the Xfer developer is in touch with the Reason Studios devs about it. There’s a demo version of Serum2 available, so it should be reproducible with that. Not sure if this is just happening on my end or if it might be a more general issue.

I noticed that something sounded off about the song when I exported it. I found that the Vital envelope gets reset when I click the Start button. Any ideas on why this is happening?

You can see a video of this happening here

Hey,
I’d like to be able to hit CMD+F in the editor and focus on track DSP pane for following combo:

1. enter some notes
2. hit cmd+f
3. type eq, use arrows + tab + enter to add fx to track
4. …

additional: can we remove need to have to press ‘tab’ after typing fx name to switch from search bar focus to the actual fx?
what would i expect:

1. type name in search bar
2. (skip tab part)
3. use arrow to go down and select plugin

I hope i was clear. if not, let me know. Thanks

I think I am going to make a Tech Step track.

Some comments before. I think it would be better to have an 18dB filter only, to simplify things. (One does not need confusion in choice here.) Also the old school hex command input, should be replaced by automation curves. A general tightening up of the tracker interface possibly. Not so many Oscilloscopes, two (stereo) is enough.

Tech Step also is a tightening up of Trance. One grew tired of phasey trackeq+mastereq+multiband sound a long time ago. This tries for a subband saturation only, over Low ratio compression if any, to clip sound.

Anyone else into Tech Step?

Hey all,

Here is a doofer I made inspired by a renoise student’s lesson. It is an LPC synced 4 track live looping doofer that allows for line input (microphone) or looping of any audio stream that you insert it into.

Macros are as follows:

Macro 1: input select “ø,1,2,3,4” determines which tap of the mtdelay unit is being used for audio buffering. ø is no input to the looper. This honestly isn’t super useful in this iteration of the looper, but in a future version I will allow for more creative control of individual inputs/“tracks”
But it does allow you to bypass looper recording when set to ø, so you can jam over your loops

Macro 2:“on>mute” This mutes the output of the looper without clearing the recording buffer

Macro 3: “clear/kill” this clears the recording buffer whenever this macro is moved. All recorded audio is deleted, never to return

Macro 4: “sync LPC” This controls the loop rate in multiples of 2 LPC. 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, and 255 LPC are all available. 255 may not be that useful lol

Macro 5: “FB” controls the feedback level on all delay taps/buffers simultaneously. Allows for negative feedback values as well. Perhaps you don’t want a true looper, but only a long delay. Use this one. Otherwise set and forget at max value for 100% FB

Macro 6: “LP freq” The taps all have LP filtering enabled. this sets the cutoff frequency for all taps simultaneously. Offering further sound sculpting possibility if used as a long delay unit. Otherwise set and forget at max value.

Macro 7: “line input” This is a simple switch which enables a line input device for recording from external audio input into the looper. Of course, you will need to set up your recording preferences accordingly

Hope this is useful to some of you out there. Let me know if it gets some use, and I’d love to hear any live looping renoise jams you come up with.

I will probably make an improved version of this sometime. Or maybe not. Life is full

Hi, everyone.

This is my first super simple Renoise LUA tool.

It automatically calculates time divisions in miliseconds and hertz for the current BPM.

I made it mostly as a reference chart for my VCV Rack patches but also to set up release times for some synthesizers and even compressors.

Thanks to @esaruoho for helping me with the table formatting and providing some LUA instructions for my newbie *ss.

You can assign a keybind to open the window (I recommend Shift+ ’ to be close to the metronome, which is ').

Feel free to modify and do whatever you want to the tool, just post here so everyone can benefit from it.

Download HERE

Some ideas for the future:

• Add buttons to multiply/divide/offset time divisions
• Quickly copy values by clicking on them

Hi, Renoise seems to have an issue when automating program changes for VST3 plugins. I am trying to get Korg’s modwave & wavestate native plugins change the current patch for a live performance. Their manual says:

.

Renoise cooperates well when changing the program from the Plugin page:

But unfortunately it doesn’t work when using Intr. MIDI Control device, M2 command or sending a program change MIDI message from my controller.

Since Renoise is already able to change the program when selecting from the Plugin/Program UI, this seems more like a bug or incomplete feature to me. I don’t have any other VST3 plugin that accepts PC to try, but VST2 plugin program changes work as expected.

Would be really happy to have this working, let me know if I can provide more info.

UPDATE
fixed the issue by disabling “auto rescan when hot plugging devies”
i noticed it was constantly scanning every 20 seconds or so and saying ‘found 4 input and 4 output midi devices’ at the bottom of the screen.
Now its playing 200 bpm breakcore with 10 channels no problems.
Thankyou for the help !

The audio is fine, there is no glitching or anything. Just that when i am playing a song with the 'follow' on, the scrolling freezes / hangs for a split second. It does it almost randomly, not at specific points or specific commands. Tried with slow and fast tempos and it still does it. I want to use the screen recording of the pattern editor mixed with my visuals so its kind of messing that up. Tried adjusting about everything GUI related, audio buffer etc, frame rate up and down made no difference......out of ideas. CPU is mostly at about 2 percent i doubt its that either. possibly a gremlin ? If anyone has any ideas i appreciate it. Wondered if anyone else had encountered such a problem ? cheers Tom

Just found this on kvr audio , it’s awesome
An emulation of the jv-880 chipset + loads the original jv rom boards
The jv880 is the first rompler that could load the legendary sr-jv expansion cards
Go get the Roms before they dissapear , atm it’s just a sample playback machine but damn it sounds good .
Comparing it with my roland INtegra ( which all the srx cards build i ) , it sounds bloody awesome

So let’s say you’re a (european) hobby musician and you would like to upload some of your music on Bandcamp for fun and to maybe get some additional small pocket money. Your real job is selling whatever online, for example on eBay or Amazon. Your real job and your hobby are two totally different businesses. So should you register as a trader or not? The description is pretty confusing:

Bandcamp Help Center Digital Services Act

The European Union (EU) Digital Services Act (DSA) is a new law designed to protect online consumers by regulating obligations of third-party marketplaces, such as Bandcamp. If you are interested i...

Does anyone here have experience with this?

I’m curious to know if anyone has ever completed an orchestral track in Renoise before. All I’ve been seeing on YouTube is just jungle drum and bass. Not a dig at anyone making that kinda stuff; I like a bit a jungle myself :), but I feel like Renoise is powerful enough where you can do so much with it. This is a question that’s been burning into my conscience recently and I just want to get it out of the way. I’d like to know your responses, if I may.

Brief description:
Gray sidebar appears when exiting fullscreen via Alt + green button on macOS. Also, the red/yellow/green window buttons are missing in fullscreen mode.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Launch Renoise on macOS
2. Enter fullscreen mode (e.g. via green window button or Control + Command + F)
3. Observe that the red, yellow, and green window buttons are not visible in fullscreen
4. Exit fullscreen
5. Hold Alt and click the green window button to make the window fill the screen (without entering fullscreen)
6. Observe the right edge of the window

Expected results:

• The three window buttons (red/yellow/green) should be visible in fullscreen, or hidden in a standard way depending on macOS behavior
• Alt-clicking the green button should expand Renoise to full window size with no visual glitches

Actual results:

• In fullscreen, the window buttons are not shown (no way to exit fullscreen with mouse)
• In windowed full-size mode (Alt + green button), a gray vertical bar appears on the right side

Description:
The gray bar only shows up when using the Alt + green button method in windowed mode. It does not appear in fullscreen. Also, in fullscreen mode, the absence of macOS window controls (close/minimize/maximize) makes exiting fullscreen less intuitive.
