Renoise: Legbreak

By jimmac on August 19, 2022 3:01 pm

Some elevator muzak, sorry. I just took some time to dive through some tutorials on Renoise that I purchased in 2019 and never touched since.

I must say I'm not very motivated to ever try again. Spoilt with the M8. The software is so anchored in the past. It's great that they introduced phrases, which I played with, but then they aren't really part of a great workflow. Maybe just having easily transposable arps.  I was surprised it does a worse job onboarding you to the FX than the tiny M8. No tooltips, no overview of what's available. Just type the shit in like it's 1985. Unlimited tracks, nice grouping and labeling, multichannel tracks, automation and everything sure feels comfy, but a modern DAW lie Ableton still feels like the next evolutionary step.

Take everything with a pinch of salt, I'm no musician. The tune is terrible, and I'm probably done with renoise for a while.

Officially a tracker connoisseur now
Cool track

I dunno what kind of an elevator would spin 2-step techno, but I'd be like "top floor please."

Track's cool. I can't really deal w/ trackers that scroll the notes. It seems like nbd but fucks me up completely.

Come on guys, you're too kind. This is a doo-doo track. But I'll make it up next week!
