MacOS: Softube VST3 editor windows don't re-appear after closing

March 25, 2022 - 19:57

Running MacOS 12.3 and Renoise 3.4 on an Intel MBP.

I can open the editor window for a Softube VST3 effect once, but after I close the window, I can no longer re-open the editor window for that instance of the plug-in. Clicking the editor window button does nothing. If I remove and re-add the plug-in, the editor window again appears only the first time it’s opened.

Last week, Softube released a sweeping update to their plug-ins to add Metal and M1 support, so the problem might be related to their changes. The VST2 versions of the plug-ins behave correctly.

Here’s Renoise.log when I insert an instance of Softube Tape. After I opened the editor window and closed it, I clicked the “Ext. Editor” button a few more times, and the window did not appear.

Vst3Plugs: Instantiating: /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/Tape.vst3…

Vst3Plugs: Failed to apply initial controller state to controller (not critical)
Vst3Plugs: Disabled auto-suspending for plugin ‘Softube: Tape’ (it reports an infinite tail)

One-shot samples in main window

March 25, 2022 - 19:33

Another beginners question

Is it possible to trigger sliced loops (slices) as one-shot in the main pattern window? I know it can be done in the phrase editor, but it could be handy in the main pattern windows also.

Regards
Bbee

Track comment device (mockup)

March 25, 2022 - 13:36

Hi, I have a feeling this have been suggested before, or maybe it was a tool of some sort back in the day… could not find it now. Anyway - I’d really love to have a (native, preferrably) device like this:

Yay?

EDIT: And I guess there would be no need for an enable/disable switch like in the mockup of course

Changing song position with midi or osc

March 24, 2022 - 16:19

Hello
I want to usemy controler to increment or decrement the playhead position within the Edit window,
Ifound this topic :

Can you Midi Map what line position your on? Beginners Questions - Renoise I’ve decided fully Midi Map Renoise using my XioSynth, effectively using it as a master controller for it. I’ve found out how to change which column your in, but not Line Position. I’m basically trying to minimize the amount of times I need to use the mouse and keyboard. It would be neat to be able to control it almost entirely with the XioSynth. [:P] It looks like I can get pretty close!

But it does not seem to work anymore ( attempt to call field ‘tool’ (a nil value))
Does anyone can help me ?
PS: i don’t find the option on the midimapping

Ableton Link transport sync problem

March 23, 2022 - 17:32

When attempting to Link Renoise and Pro Tools over the local network the link is recognized by both but the Renoise transport doesn’t engage when I engage the Pro Tools transport. If I engage the Renoise transport first the expected Link induced countoff happens but Pro Tools doesn’t budge.

I tried Renoise on a third computer in the network as a test and got the same result.

Investigating further, I opened Bitwig on one of the machines. Two Links appear in each of the three DAWs and Bitwig and Pro Tools engage with each other as expected, transports synced, but Renoise does not engage.

I feel like I’m probably missing a simple setting in Renoise? Any help is greatly appreciated!

macOS: Reason Rack Plugin interface unresponsive without Enable Keyboard

March 23, 2022 - 11:22

Hi,

Did anyone have this issue and find solution for this? RR plugin interface is not clickable with Enable Keyboard unchecked. Otherwise keyboard notes input doesn’t work.
This turns out to be quite annoying being unable use my computer keyboard and tweak Reason devices’ knobs simultaneously. Using macOS.
I’m trying to avoid using any additional midi gear/keyboards.

Cheers

FX Chain Stepper from LFO

March 22, 2022 - 23:01

Tonight I will bring you an effects device chain meta modulation stepper patch, working with the custom graphical LFO points! It was a real fun little hack to do, and I think some people here might be happy about it, because I have seen such a feature requested now and then!

It works quite well to my understanding so far. Just when you trigger multiple notes at the same time, it will only advance one step…unlike the modulation stepper it only works monophonic. Also when the song speed and tickrate are very low, for each note played there can be a short delay until it will register a new note and step on.

How to use it?

To work with it, drag & drop the preset file into an effect chain, or right click the effect chain and select “Device Chain”->“Load…” and select the “fxstepper.xrnt” file. Take care, loading the preset will overwrite any existing FX chain in that track, so if you do not want to replace, you might want to create a new track/device chain for it, load the patch into it, and then you can drag&drop the devices around to where it suits you.

Then when you got it ready, the first thing you might want to do is to choose an instrument/sample for the “Velocity Tracker” device. This instrument/sample will trigger the stepper on every note played.

The next thing you might want to do, is to edit some values in the code field of the “Step Formula” device. The following values can be edited to have effect on the action:

  • “ntaps” should exactly match the number of points of the “Step Table” LFO device for the hack to work properly. (Due to a bug max 256 values)
  • “step” is the number of steps skipped in the table for each note played. It can be a positive value, or a negative value. It can even be a fractional value, for example “0.5” will skip a line every 2 notes. If you set it to zero “0”, the stepper will choose a random point for each note played.
  • “start” will set the starting point that the stepper selects when it is loaded and when a reset is triggered. It can be a fractional number as well.

The next thing you might want to do is edit the LFO “Step Table”. As said, it should be set to have the same number of points as selected in the formula device. Then you can just enter the data points, and you can also use the “Ext. Editor” functionality in all it’s glory to fine tune your data points.

Then you will want to set up the “Mod Targets” Hydra device, linking it to the effect parameters that you want the stepper to modulate.

Lastly, the “Step Formula” device has a first parameter called “RESET”. This will automatically return to zero when you change it. However whenever you set it to a nonzero value somehow, for example by moving it, or by right clicking it to write a value to the pattern FX column or to point automation, at that point the Stepper will reset to the position declared with the “start” parameter, so you can sequence repetitive modulations.

So that is all about it so far I think. I hope you people have some fun with it. If you find anything quirky about it, have ideas on how to improve, want to give some feedback etc, feel free to write here, I can try to fix it.

But please keep in mind that it is a pretty freaky hack, and not everything will be possible to fix for me. Shouts out to @slujr for suggesting this hack to be done.

New tool: Chord progression tool

March 22, 2022 - 22:40

Here is a tool to generate chord progressions out of some random chords.
It is a way to kick-start a new track when out of ideas. Or… That was the idea when creating it

renoise.com Chord Progression tool | Renoise

Renoise is a digital audio workstation. It lets you compose, edit and record production-quality audio using a music tracker-based approach. It features a wide range of built-in audio processors, alongside support for all commonly used virtual...

Since it’s my first tool, and also my first encounter with LUA, it probably has more bugs than lines of code. It do work on my computer though, of course.

It writes to the current pattern. Screenshot of gui below:

Stepper-like behavior with meta devices in FX chains?

March 22, 2022 - 03:43

Hey all, looking for an assist here…

I’d like to be able to emulate the stepper modulation device’s behavior in the instrument or track fx section using currently available native meta devices. I’ve been able to achieve some stepwise motion using a couple of different approaches…

First, using an odd combo of a key tracker, hydra, and lfo and some destination splitting and feedback, but the movement was not regular, and the desired looping behavior wasn’t achieved. I also used a signal follower and a very short trigger sound tied to lfo frequency to step through a series of values. Satisfactory movement, with some fiddling, but same issue with a lack of cyclical movement.

I’m a dunce when it comes to the formula device, but I wonder if there is some way to utilize this (or some other combination of meta devices) to replicate the utility of the stepper device in fx chains.

Love to hear your ingenious solutions if you’ve got em!

eternal gratitude if so!

A Signal-following Stereo Doofer

March 22, 2022 - 02:37

Similar to the iZotope Ozone Imager. This rudimentary Doofer allows for the stereo signal to be triggered at or above 5kHz (or other frequency ranges) with further adjustment of the the “HP Freq” knob. Dest Min/Max adjust for how much of the signal affects the Sensitivity. The lower the Sensitivity, the more ‘touchy’ the effect is, which really allows for an active stereo expansion. The initial setting is a nice upper-mid mastering setting - a lively, moving stereo spreader without affecting the low-end. Keeps panning activity exciting, yet less of an ‘on/off jarring’ feel.

Recorded audio is not syncing

March 21, 2022 - 22:39

Halo World, I need your advise… AFter I sequence the midi in RENOISE, I record the audio but for some strange reason, after a few bars, it goes out of sync.

I read when recording audio, to take out the audio plugin delay(turn it off).
