Renoise Forum

Hi everyone. Sorry if this isn’t the right place to post this, or if this has been addressed before, but to my knowledge it hasn’t. I thought this might go into tool development, but I’m not sure yet if developing a tool is the way to go.

I would like to stylize Renoise in such a way as to remove most, or all of the pattern editor “null” grid, ie the array of tiny dots and dashes found in the note, FX, and volume columns. So far, I have tried going in the appearance editor in “Settings” > “GUI” and fooling around with colours and transparencies. Unfortunately, the background dots/dashes are set to always be the same colour as the notes which get inputted over them.

I have also tried fooling around with the font files (on a Mac) in Renoise (app) [show package contents] > resources > skin > fonts. I have tried swapping out different font files, and even editing the font files to manually delete anything which looks like a dot or dash, none of which seems to have any effect, unless I was careless about it which is possible.

I am thinking that the actual dots/dashes are not a font at all, and are simply hard coded into Renoise as pixels, but I’m not sure at this point. If anyone has any ideas I will happily try anything and report my results.

Thank you.

I like to generate samples for Renoise. A lot. I’m always looking for ways to create new waveforms.

I won’t use AKWF. Not now, not ever. I like to make my own sounds.

Online, there is a video game SFX generator call JFXR here: https://jfxr.frozenfractal.com/

Besides SFX, it can also create single-cycle waveforms. For the ‘Sustain’ section, change the time to: 0.0038095 - this will output a 168-samples length waveform. Tune the sample as you see fit. 261.63 is “C”.

It does FM and AM as well as the basic waveforms, along with harmonics.

AM is under the label “Tremolo Depth” and “Tremolo Frequency” - it goes up to 999.999 Hz
FM is under the label “Vibrato Depth” and “Vibrato Frequency” - it goes up to 999.999 Hz

Under the “Tone” section, you can add harmonics to the waveform for even more variation to your samples.

Finally, since this is a SFX generator, you can also come up with all sorts of bass-drums, and other odd percussion. Maybe snares? I don’t know, I haven’t tried every variation. Lots of neat sounds. The noise waveforms are nice and soft as well.

Hello together!

Why the LBP4 to LBP8 Change, changes the BPM speed in Renoise? In Reason only it change the Raster of midi Notes, when i change from 1/16 to 1/32 Note. I have testet that!!! If i make the LBP chance in Renoise, The Song is speeded up redicolous. And Renoise has no Midi Note Time Scaling function!!! That Suckz like Hell.
maybe for me that is killerthing to end up using renoise

Sorry if this has been answered already, I did search around first but could only find ancient posts…

Is there a way to launch/trigger patterns on the fly by assigning them to keys on the keyboard (computer or midi) and having them switch in a quantized manner? Also, ideally, to be able to record that sequence in as well.

Hope that makes sense
Cheers

simple feature, but it would be very useful if there was a shortcut for moving left and right to the next note column, automatically skipping Instrument Number, Volume, Delay, FX, etc.

So you could simply enter a Chord by hitting : Q RIGHT R RIGHT Z for example.

I know you can enter a chord by holding shift, but I still would find this easier to try out different notes in different positions and moving around the grid in general.

Hey guys. Tried Renoise demo a couple of nights ago and gelled with it instantly!!! Really cool program - feels lightweight and powerful. I’ve bought a Polyend Tracker too and look forward to using them together.

One concern, however - On my laptop (2017 i7 MacBook pro Retina) Renoise works super great - really fast and snappy and responsive. HOWEVER on my faster i9 2020 Imac, it is very sluggish! Clicking on buttons has a noticeable delay. The VU meters are all out of time and looks like it has very low frame rate. (I checked the options and it’s set to 60) it’s pretty unusable tbh.

Is that a known issue? Is there a simple way for me to resolve it?

Also one small question… Renoise shows a greyed out version of the pattern above the current pattern. I would like to turn that off, but can’t figure out how. Would be grateful if someone can let me know.

All the best!

Hello together!

I have the Problem that my actual Melody dont fits the tracker raster. i try to modify the bpm, and the LBP from 4 to 8 but then i must lowering the Songtempo at ridicolous values around 32 bpm. What must i do in Renoise to have that for instance:

Song 125 BPM 4/4 Takt
Trackerraster = Midi Noteraster 1/32 Notes and Renoise should Quantize like other DAW’s.

i have problems with the “off” Note too. Because on the playposition for next note i must place an “off” Note between, or it sound poor. Have anybody a suggestion for me?

happy Tracking

I think this could be quite useful for arpeggios, to better distinguish between octaves (low notes vs high notes). Maybe as on/off option per track.

Could also be used in different modes like: note in scale(green in scale, red out of scale) or loud note vs quiete note.

I used string harmonics to make an almost medieval organ sound which sets the mood quite nicely in the opening, and the rest just sorta happened…

I wrote this track to be less like a menace (for now!), though it does poke through cheekily. Whatcha think?
