Feedback

“It’s like it’s Renoise+”
“Your extension has so much to it. I was playing around with it the other day and I feel like I need to spend just a day to learn everything I can do with it. It’s like Renoise+”
“Your tool is really well thought out - most well thought out Renoise tool I’ve come across actually. Functions I even didn’t think about and it’s already inside your tool. Speaking of dedication.”
“I was mostly in awe and started immediately imagining new ways to use renoise”
“This is by far the most thought out tool ever. Why is this not natively implemented?”
“every renoise user should know and use paketti, without it renoise is not so fun”
“got to be one of the most (if not the most) organized set of tools ive ever seen for Renoise.”
“I found Paketti to be the most versatile and flexible in its development direction. It has made Renoise very useful and enjoyable to use. Thank you.”
“You are essentially writing… a completely new framework over the engine.”
“I have no doubt that you are the most important person in the various Renoise Tools developers.”
“You RULE. Thanks for being so responsive … and for the massive amount of work into creating this. Really is like Renoise+++”
“Paketti is like a massive Swiss army knife in the world of Renoise tools.”
“you are really doing what i wanted renoise to do in the first place”
“Stuff like paketti (as I’m digging in) is really a lifesaver. When you only have 45 minutes to make music, anything that shaves a minute or two is like an eternity. So… thank you. This is truly amazing.”
“paketti itself deserves a lifetime movie about star-crossed lovers who have obscure script needs”
“I just set up Renoise as the Sample Editor for Ableton, got a few breaks up and quantized, THEN used the Paketti save all samples to backup folder. I’ve been trying for literally YEARS at this point to figure this out, THANK YOU.”
“Man, Paketti is awesome. Been using Renoise for a while but never used your tool. The best thing I learned from the manual: the G01 trick. Finally free from the grid! I never realized that this is possible. That’s a true game changer. Thanks a million!”
“For Paketti you deserve some kind of award, a medal. So many years to keep it alive, constantly adding new features. Respect.”

Roadmap

Take a look at the open tickets on GitHub at this link. I have also filtered through the 7361 Renoise Forum posts in the subforum Ideas and Suggestions ( From 2002 to 2024 ), and have picked over a thousand of them for being scripted.

I’m also constantly and consistently doing 1-on-1 calls with people to find out what hinders their workflow, what would boost their quality-of-life (QoL) using Renoise, and what they wish Renoise had - based on what other trackers have, or their own experiences with using trackers.

Whenever there’s a new API version, I snoop through all the functions to see if I can reopen old closed tickets (BlockedByAPI label which I use on my GitHub - check here) and re-do them.

I’m also doing the same thing for the Renoise subforum Beginners Questions and Tool Discussion & Tool Announcements.

The objective for those specific subforums is to find abandoned tools, suggestions for tools, and questions from beginners. When a beginner sees Renoise, they don’t know what’s there, and they might ask for something that should be there, but isn’t. So it’s a cleverly disguised accidental feature request.

Please note: If there’s something in the manual here, that feels hard to comprehend or you feel requires better explanations, please send me a message or leave an issue, so I’ll focus on that.

So to repeat, I’m adding features people have requested over the past 23 years, I’m adding features from other trackers, and also tweaking abandoned tools and making them work again, but the Paketti way, and adding them into Paketti.

Hence why it’s useful if I can get as much support as I can to keep going at this, it feels like this’ll take at least 5-10 years to cover everything.

Every time I do a 1-on-1 call, I get between 4 to 28 new ideas.

ManualOrganization

Automation

Automation Selection Flood Fill

The Shortcut/Midi Mapping Flood Fill Automation Selection lets you select a segment of Automation, and fill the rest of the Pattern with the selection.

An example of usage:

This same feature is also available from the Automation Menu: and the other in Main Menu -> Tools -> Paketti.. -> Automation.. -> Flood Fill Automation Selection.

Write Automation Value 0.0-1.0

The Shortcuts for Write Automation Value 0.0 to Write Automation Value 1.0 will output the Automation Value to the selected Automation Parameter.

Note: If there is no Automation Envelope created for the Selected Automation Parameter, an Automation Envelope will be automatically created.

ALT-D Selection with Automation Frame Open

The Shortcut Impulse Tracker ALT-D Double Select w/ Automation takes the original ALT-D Double Select feature from Scream Tracker 3 and Impulse Tracker 2 and adds additional logic into the mix.

Meaning, if you have the Automation Frame displaying, the same Shortcut will also select the same rows in the Automation Frame.

An example of usage:

Automation Across Multiple Patterns Using Pattern Matrix

Menu Entries in the Pattern Matrix for creating Automation curves that start from the first selected Pattern and travel to the last selected Pattern for the Selected Track.

Linear Up/Down
Exponential Up/Down
Linear Center->Top
Linear Top->Center
Linear Center->Bottom
Linear Bottom->Center
Exponential Center->Top
Exponential Top->Center
Exponential Center->Bottom
Exponential Bottom->Center

The Pattern Matrix Menu looks like this:

Flip Automation Horizontally & Vertically

The Shortcuts / MIDI Mappings for Flip Automation Selection Horizontally and Flip Automation Selection Vertically will do the same thing as Flip & Mirror buttons in the Automation Frame, but these Renoise-native features do not have MIDI Mappings available.

MIDI Automation Curve Draw Selection

This MIDI Mapping will read the Selection on your Selected Automation Parameter, and change the Automation Curve. With a regular Automation Envelope, this will cycle through

Full Bottom
Line Up
Exponential Up
Full Top
Line Down
Exponential Down

An example of usage:

If you have selected a Panning, PitchBend or similar (get in touch if you want more configurations), these will cycle through the following:

An example of usage:

Select Automation Playmode

The Shortcuts / MIDI Mappings for Select Automation Playmode (Next)/(Previous) and 01 Points, 02 Lines, 03 Curves let you set the Selected Automation Parameter’s Playmode states.

Set Automation Range to Max, Middle, Min

The Shortcuts and Midi Mappings for Set Automation Range to Max (1.0), Set Automation Range to Middle (0.5) and Set Automation Range to Min (0.0) output to the currently selected Automation Parameter’s currently selected row.

Switch to Automation & Cycle through Automation Envelopes

The Shortcut / Midi Mapping Switch to Automation Dynamic is a multi-function feature. If you’re not in the Automation Frame, it will display the Automation Frame. (Hence the “Switch to Automation” part of the name).

If you are already on the Automation Frame, pressing the same shortcut or midi button again, will result in you cycling through the parameters that have Automation Envelopes on them.

An example of usage:

Selected Device Automation Parameter 001…128

These 128 MIDI Mappings will directly write to the Automation Parameter of the Selected Device. This will happen without the Automation Frame switching to showing the Parameter, so, if you know which Selected Device Parameter you wish to control, just map them and fire away.

Automation Selection Start & End with MIDI

The following MIDI Mappings will let you use two knobs to set the Selection Start and Selection End of the currently selected Automation Envelope.

An example of usage:

Automation Value Dialog

The Shortcut/Midi Mapping Show Automation Value Dialog... will open up a simple and small Dialog that lets you write an Automation Value to the currently selected Automation Line.

As you can see from the Dialog screenshot below, the textfield is autoselected. After opening the Dialog, you can simply input a value between 0.0 and 1.0, press enter, and the Dialog closes and the value is input.

An example of usage:

There is also an additional feature, the EditStep follow, which lets you get jumped to the next EditStep value after you press Enter in the Value textfield.

An example of usage: With the EditStep set, the Dialog never closes.

Record Automation to Selected Parameter

This MIDI Mapping will let you record Automation nodes to the Selected Automation Parameter.

This will only record content to the Selected Parameter, if Edit Mode is on. Then it records to the whole selection. If you have a selection, it will change the value of the whole selection.

If you have Follow Pattern on, then it will record to changes to the playhead.

An example of usage:

Generate Automation Points from Notes in Selected Track

The Shortcut/MidiMapping Generate Automation Points from Notes in Selected Track will output Automation Points to the selected Automation Parameter based on the notes you have in the Pattern Editor.

This same feature is also available from the Automation Menu:

An example of usage:

Automation Selected Parameter Randomization

The Shortcut/Midi Mapping Randomize Automation Envelope will take your currently selected Automation Parameter and Randomize it, or, if there is a selection, only Randomize the selection.

This same feature is also available from the Automation Menu:

An example of usage:

Automation Selected Device Randomize (All Parameters)

The Shortcut/Midi Mapping Randomize Automation Envelopes for Device will insert Randomization to each and every parameter of the Selected Device.

This will create a new Envelope per each Parameter, or overwrite the pre-existing one.

This same feature is also available from the Automation Menu:

Automation Selection Flip & Mirror

8 Macro Knobs for controlling Paketti Instrument Macros

I think one of the most consistent points of pleasure that Paketti can provide for those with MIDI controllers is this: What you’re seeing are 8 pre-configured macro knobs. And two versions of the macro knobs for controlling the Selected Instrument settings. This means that after you’re done configuring Macro2: Cutoff, Macro3: Resonance, Macro4: Cutoff LfoAmp, Macro5: Cutoff LfoFreq, Macro6: Drive, Macro7: ParallelComp Macro8: Pitchbend Inertia – every time you’re on any single Paketti Instrument, your 8 knob midicontroller will let you control these settings.

So, basically, set and forget.

Set Cutoff + Resonance, and any instrument you’re on, your two knobs will change the Cutoff and the Resonance. Or any of those others.

This is what Paketti is all about, workflow improvements that “make sense (tm)” and improve the quality of life.

Also, every Paketti instrument comes in pre-baked with Pitchbend support - so you don’t have to set it up yourself. Just load a sample using Paketti (or Clean Render, or Unison Generate, or eSpeak generate, or yt-dlp download, or .RX2 / .REX / .PTI / .IFF / .SF2 import), and you’re already ready to control that specific instrument’s macro knobs.

Global View Presets

Since there are limitations to what the Global View Presets can do - I’ve opted for creating 8 slots for Dynamic Views. These can be triggered with user-defined shortcuts, and they fully control what is visible or not-visible. Here are the four that I use - note well: you could have a single shortcut that runs through all 8 cycles of the one slot, meaning, it could be anything - going to anything. A single shortcut that jumps from Pattern Editor to Phrase Editor to Mixer to Sample Editor, with all the other frames and information either displayed or not displayed.

Sample Recorder

SampleManagement

Paketti tries to circumvent some of the most painful points of Renoise, and replace them with better, easier, faster, more user-friendly solutions. Quality-of-Life & Workflow improvements over “multiple mouse clicks”.

Loading Samples

One of them is the complete dismissal of the Disk Browser. You don’t need to use it to load samples or save samples. In fact, I would encourage you to never use it for loading or saving samples - just use the Paketti solutions.

The Windows Explorer and macOS Finder are far more robust and stronger solutions than the Renoise Disk Browser. When you trigger the following shortcuts or menu entries or midimappings, the Windows Explorer, or the macOS Finder will be opened - allowing you to select multiple samples from multiple folders, access the sidebar/favorites you have set yourself, and, just, be faster than the Disk Browser.

For that, you just use the Paketti PitchBend Multiple Sample Loader & Paketti PitchBend Drumkit Loader shortcuts. These will load a sample (or multiple samples), and immediately initialize it with:

8 Macros (PitchBend, Cutoff, Resonance, Cutoff LFO Frequency, Cutoff LFO Amp (4+5 are used for autofilter like features), OverDrive, Parallel Compression, PitchBend Glide/Inertia) (set it to max, and your regular midicontroller pitchbend input will be very slow, set it to minimum, pitchbending will be immediate). For these, there’s a Default XRNI instrument being used, which comes with Paketti. you can of course replace it with a completely different XRNI - which will then get it’s sample overwritten on every load.
Paketti Preferences “Paketti Loader” preferences, such as using your preferred loopmode, autofade, autoseek, oneshot, interpolation, New Note Action, selected FilterType.

If you pay close attention, you’ll also see a checkbox for setting the AHDSR Envelope. Yes, the Default .XRNI Instrument of Paketti also comes in with some Sample FX Chain settings. There’s a:

Sample FX devices

Deactivated Mono device
Deactivated DC Offset device
Modulation devices
Volume AHDSR
Volume Stepper
Volume LFO
Pitch Stepper
Panning Stepper
Panning LFO
Cutoff Stepper
Resonance Stepper
Drive Stepper

Some examples below:

I have created a Stepper switching dialog that lets you visit the stepper of your choice and draw the steps you wish. Here’s an example:

There are also other shortcuts for directly sending PitchStepper settings to the selected instrument: The other shortcuts do these:

Octave Up & Octave Down

Octave Up twice & Octave Down twice (changing the minimum & maximum pitch to 24st)

Randomize PitchSteps

The *Instr. Macros device which is also added to the track you are on, allows you to directly start automating the Macro parameters.

Meaning, you would load a sample using Paketti, input a few notes to the pattern editor, and immediately be able to start drawing automation for any of the 8 macro controls. So you could for instance put in a drumloop, and start drawing a cutoff automation curve directly to modulate the cutoff parameter.

The 8 Macros are also available as a Midi Mapping like this:

The reason for adding these, is, so, that when you are on any instrument with the Paketti Default XRNI Instrument (or any instrument with any of the 8 Macros set up), the same 8 Midi knobs on your controller will control those 8 settings. So you can rest your hands on the knobs, select a different instrument, and keep crafting. These also, of course, apply to the DrumKit Loader - which we’ll cover next.

The DrumKit loader loads a max of 120 samples into the instrument. Select more? Only loads 120 samples. The drums are mapped automatically from C0 to B9.

Saving Samples

There are Midi Mappings, Keyboard Shortcuts and Menu Entries for Save Selected Sample .WAV & Save Selected Sample .FLAC. There’s also Save Selected Sample Range .WAV & Save Selected Sample Range .FLAC. The Sample Range saving is from Fast Tracker 2.

There’s also a method for saving all Samples to a Backup Folder - which are user configurable - meaning, you can have 3 different Backup Folders, and thus three different shortcuts for saving either Selected Sample, or all Samples to the Backup Folder.

The dialog where you get to select the Backup Folders is the “Launch App Selection Dialog”, pictured below:

Sending Samples to other apps

If you carefully look at the same dialog:

You’ll see there is also a way of sending a selected sample to a specific app! This means, you can set your preferred programs, and Renoise / Paketti will save the selected sample to a temporary folder, and start the app and load the sample.

Note well, Bitwig developers: Your app does not support sending files to it via bitwig.app file.wav. Please fix.

Wipe & Slice

Those who like BeatSlicing, there’s a mathematical slicer - which takes your loop, and, depending on which shortcut you pick, slices it in half (two slices), or 4 slices.. to max 128 slices. meaning if your loop already loops well, you can just split it into 16-32-64 slices and start drumming away at the loop.

There are additional configuration steps in the Paketti Preferences dialog:

The BeatSync Mode can be set, also, and if, for instance, you set a 256 BeatSync Line setting for the sample, and chop it in 16 pieces, then each Slice will play at 16 BeatSync - maintaining the pitch and speed that you would expect. All this is taken care of behing the scenes.

MPC-like Slice start + end alteration with Shortcuts / MidiMappings

But Slices aren’t always precise. So there are methods for adjusting the Start and Endpoint of the Slices, much like MPC does it. This means that you don’t need to keep viewing the original sample, zooming in, adjusting the Start/Endpoints, zooming out, moving a bit, and then doing the same thing like an automaton. Just look at the Slice, and change where it starts and ends.

Here are the shortcuts - and examples of how it could be done.

And here’s a little .gif of what it looks like:

move slice

Isolate Slices

While we’re on the Slice topic, there’s also Isolate Slices to New Instruments, which takes all the Slices in your Instrument, and creates new Instruments below it. And if you were on, say the Slice that was a Snare - isolate slices, you’ll still be on the Snare.

Of course, the Paketti Default .XRNI instrument is introduced for each slice.

You can also Isolate Selected Sample to a New Instrument - which takes the selected Sample or Slice, and creates a new Instrument, with the Paketti Default .XRNI Instrument introduced.

There’s also Isolate Samples / Slices to New Instruments - which takes the selected Instrument, and gets the Samples & Slices to brand new Instruments, with the Paketti Default .XRNI Instrument injected.

Plugin / Device Management

Loading Devices and Plugins

Another step in the abandoning / circumventing of Native Renoise loading methods, is the doing away with the usage of the Track DSP Device Loading.

Instead, Paketti introduces Keyboard Shortcuts, MidiMappings for loading your preferred VST,VST3,AU,LADSPA,DSSI,Native devices to both Track DSP Chains and Sample FX Chains.

There are also Menu Entries for loading your Native devices (including the Hidden / Legacy effects), if you’re mouse inclined.

By going to Tools -> Paketti.. -> Plugins/Devices.. -> Load Devices Dialog… and ticking your favorites, clicking on the Add Device(s) as Shortcut(s) & MidiMappings button will result in, from now on, the selected devices being available in Keybinds and MidiMappings. Set them up, and away you go!

This means that you can, for instance, (in my usecase) press shift-q e r t z a v and out come 7 devices to the selected track. Same with midibuttons, after selecting your favorites, you can use the midi mappings to set up midi controls for loading your desired device onto your selected track. Trust me, it’s fast, fluid and just feels natural. Set them like you want to, and throw in your devices.

There are some additional details, such as: the external Devices are loaded in minimized mode, so they don’t take up extra space. The Renoise Native devices are not loaded in minimized mode, because the parameters are displayed there.

And the more important detail: the External Editor is automatically opened!

The same thing exists for loading Plugins, go to Tools -> Paketti.. -> Plugins/Devices.. -> Load Plugins Dialog…

Same logic. Pick the ones you want, add them to the Paketti Preferences - they’ll always be there.

The extra logic with Plugins, is, that it wouldn’t make much sense if they overwrote the current instrument - so, a new instrument slot is added, every time you load a plugin. And the External Editor is made visible. So you can just start tweaking away.

RewriteSoon

Freeze & Flatten a.k.a. Clean Render Selected Track or Group.

there’s a Clean Render Selected Track / Group. this will solo the selected track, render it as a wavefile, create a new track (named with a matching title such as “Bass (Rendered)” (if your original track was called Bass, input C-4 to the newly created track, ingest the 8 macros to it, mute the original track, collapse the original track, and if you select it, also bypass the effects in the original track. and it’s ready to be automated, by default, too. if you have a line input device on the track, instead of “Highest” diskwriting speed it will switch to “Realtime” - meaning, if you have incoming audio being processed through renoise effects, that incoming audio will be recorded to the new instrument, with the effects. perfect for external synthesizers being controlled by midi, for instance.

Improved Automation drawing, including multi-pattern automation.

since the renoise automation drawing is quite limited, i’ve added midi shortcuts and menu entries for drawing curves up/down (exponential, linear), and also added logic that if you’re trying to do an “exponential to max” curve on a pitchbend/panning automation lane, it will be drawn from the center to the top, instead of from the bottom to the top. there’s also multipattern automation drawing, meaning, you make a selection from pattern matrix and it will draw an exponential curve or linear curve from patternStart to patternEnd.

there’s also midimappings for automation start and automation end, and a third midimapping knob for deciding which automation curve is drawn and from where to where. so you can pick an automation area, and use a knob to decide what the curve would look like.

i’ve also introduced a “Draw Automation to Selected Automation Parameter”. this means, you’re in ANY automation lane whatsoever, have playback on, set record on, set follow pattern on, and turn the knob == result == you are drawing automation to that lane. you don’t need to map the midi anywhere in the track device or anywhere, just map it once to the “automate selected parameter” and just select any parameter and just draw in. it also works with selections, meaning, you select a section and draw with the knob, and it writes to the section (this with follow pattern off, of course).

Paketti Theme Selector

This dialog comes in pre-populated with 518 themes, and you can pick your favorite themes out of the mix, and have Renoise randomize through the favorites (or all themes). So every time you boot up Renoise or load a new song, a different theme will load. Great for discovering new themes.

Paketti Gater

This allows directly writing in looping volume, retrig, backwardsplayback and panning gates. E Each of these rows have their own steps, min 1 max 16. so if you have a 512 row pattern and use a 16 row volume gater, then it’ll keep looping till the end of the 512 row patterns. or if you have a 3 row panning step, those 3 steps will repeat until the end of the pattern, and so on. these are also designed to type directly to the pattern editor, either for volume control of sample, or volume control of the mixer channel.

Example: gater improvement updates

Paketti Groovebox 8120

There’s a 8 part 16 step stepsequencer which writes directly to the Pattern Editor. You can load 120 samples into each part, pick your preferred sound, and use checkboxes to make them play. Probability checkboxes to modify how likely the step per part is to play, can draw automation directly by clicking on Automation (leveraging the 8 macros introduced on every Sample Load) and use buttons to randomize step sequencer content, select a random sample for all parts, or selecting random samples for each part, reverse any part or all part samples.. and you can limit the steps from 16 to 1 at will. Or increase steps till 512 - meaning, 16 steps will play, and x amount of silence until 16 steps play again.

a brief demo at SO HEY TWITCH DELETES STREAMS SO ITS GONE // TODO I need to make a new one. Here’s an updated screenshot:

There’s dozens of ImpulseTracker/ScreamTracker3 shortcuts for pattern editing and modification, some of which have been recently supercharged to also allow for selecting automation, gif here meaning when you select something using paketti shortcuts, it will also select the automation, if automation is visible. this can be combined with the midiknobs for drawing automation curves easily. alt-d alt-u with automation

Dynamic Views for cycling through with shortcuts.

The Dynamic Views let you have a max of 8 shortcuts which cycle through the view settings that you have picked. each of the 8 shortcuts can have max 8 different cycles.

so you have maximum control over “view presets” but they’re much more powerful than the 8 that renoise allows you to have, because they remember their state. You could, for instance, cycle, with one shortcut, from Pattern Editor to Sample Editor + show Sample Recorder, then press the same shortcut to hit Mixer, show Disk Browser + Pattern Matrix + Instrument Box, then again to only show Pattern Editor and Automation.

MIDI Populator

there’s a method of creating 16 new tracks with 16 midi input channels and 16 midi output channels and 16 plugin devices, automatic send generation and line input generation, for those who want to use renoise with an external sequencer with a multi-out soundcard, or those who want to use renoise as a sequencer for external synthesizers and want to map the midioutput channels themselves. all of the generated samples will have midi control devices set up directly, and automation ready to go.

Default Phrase Settings

This allows you to set your Phrase Preferences - i.e., when you use the Paketti -specific shortcut for creating or modifying current Phrase, the settings will be added.

eSpeak Text-to-Speech speechsynthesizer

This uses espeak-ng for creating spoken word samples using text-to-speech synthesis.

there’s randomizers for parameters of selected device, a mono-device which can be added or toggled on/off from the channel for quickly monoing

the same shortcut + midimapping loader for devices, is also available for plugins, so vst,vst3,audiounit,ladspa,dssi softsynths can be shot to the instrument box with shortcuts + midimappings

there’s an inverter device which inverts the audio - using the Gainer device. This can be added to both the Sample FX Chain and the Track DSP Chains.

The send and multiband send shortcuts load the native devices “correctly” aka “Keep Source and volume at zero” as opposed to “mute source and volume at max”..

Automation

I have written midimappings for directly inputting automation points to the currently selected automation parameter And also a shortcut for opening a dialog for writing automation points to exactly which pattern row you are on And also randomize selected automation parameter And randomize all automation parameters of selected device And multipattern automation curve drawing And midimapping for select start and end of automation and also mapping for changing selection curve up down exp Linear etc And also flood fill of selection in automation parameter to end of pattern And a shortcut for cycling through all automation parameters that have been defined by user (written to)

0G01 Loader

This uses the G01 (Glide to note) trick to allow for playing really long samples, even if the pattern would be shorter than the length of the sample. The sample will play until the end, and then replay again at the start of the next replay. This means you can have a 4 second drumloop but play 20 minutes of pads on top of it.

there’s a midimapping + shortcut that 1) shows sample recorder 2) starts recording 3) press the shortcut again, it stops the recording, throws in the 8 macros so you can quickly start recording anything by just pressing the shortcut or holding down a midi button, let go of the midibutton, sampling stops

there’s a pattern cheatsheet which lets you input pattern commands to either selected row or selection in pattern:

there’s shortcuts + midimappings for inputting volume, panning, delay, samplefx effect commands and effect parameters to the selection in pattern

there’s “flood fill by editstep” shortcuts which let you take what’s under your cursor and repeat it every 6th row or 8th row etc, or every row.

there’s a replicate at cursor shortcut, which enables this kind of stuff:

https://www.loom.com/share/a437d74618934e9db634ceb41b1c5b9a?sid=ead6a274-1a6a-4ea1-a068-344fed4aef23

there’s a “Set Repeater Value” Knob midimapping which will either 1) add Repeater and activate it 2) detect Repeater exists and modify the parameters, allowing for stuff like this:

https://www.loom.com/share/f4f94d05045a4df49896d52202d3adf7?sid=9c7c6c79-005d-48f4-ba21-ac06475b5bfc

there’s shortcuts for changing pattern length to 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 96, 128, 256, 512 - methods for duplicating content with 1-256 row patterns to double it, then LPB*2 diskwriting aka rendering a new sample, but making a clone of the pattern and setting it’s LPB to current LPB, then the clone of the pattern has LPB times two, and the audio playing there. there’s seamless rendering, aka if you have anything below 257 rows of pattern, it will duplicate it, render it, select the beginning 256 rows (so you can delete them if you like) and add a loop to the other 256 rows so you can have a reliably looping (mostly) long pad with tail mixed in.. mono to stereo converters for sample data (mono to left, right blank, mono to right, left blank, mono to stereo with both).. there’s a yt-dlp downloader that downloads the full audio from a youtube video, instagram, facebook, twitter posts, and it already has the macros loaded in.. and there’s multiple missing shortcuts for sample pitch finetune panning loop etc controls, same for midi.. i could go on. i’ve done max 4 hour demos of going through all the features, normally around 45minutes to 1,5hours depending on what i remember to show

there’s “Duplicate Instrument and Reverse” - which both makes a copy of the currently selected instrument, and then reverses the sample, and selects the sample. Duplicate Track and Instrument - will take the notes that are there in the current track. + track dsps, and make a new track, select the track, and duplicate the instrument. and if you have a plugin open in the original instrument, and duplicate the instrument with this script, then it closes the plugin external editor, and duplicates the instrument, jumps to the newly created track, and opens the plugin’s external editor for it. there’s a dialog that lets you randomize a selected device, or all devices in a selected track, or selected plugin, or all selected plugins, – there’s 5 different flavors of all four of those, with percentages you can set for them. there’s a “duplicate track with selected instrument”, meaning you can keep copying the note content, but it’ll be branded with your current instrument, instead of it being a duplicated instrument.

the randomize with percentage was from ModPlugTracker. there’s also a bunch of features from PlayerPro, such as this note inputting dialog, which lets you input notes, with editstep, to selection, or current row, meaning you can do stuff like this. there’s also a method of hovering the mouse to write effect columns to the selection in pattern.. i’ve also replicated the OctaMED Pick/Put Note technique, which lets you pick any note column + effect column content, and put it down. think of it like macros for note column + effect column content. you can do them with shortcuts (both picking up and putting down) but also with midi. so you could for instance have chords grabbed and keep slamming them down - there’s also controls for printing the information with a specific instrument.

one thing i keep forgetting is the Launch App Selection. you can define 6 apps, and when you run the shortcut, or menu entry, or click on “Send selected sample” in the dialog, it saves a temporary file and loads it in the app. such as audacity, apple music, ableton live (straight to session view). there’s also a backup folder (3 places) where it saves to one of the three places depending on the shortcut

I’ve also built two dialogs for showing keybindings - with fuzzy search. one shows Paketti shortcuts only, the other shows all Renoise KeyBindings but can be filtered with tools or without tools, etc.

then there’s tiny audio tools such as “strip silence”, “move beginning silence to the end”.. shortcuts for invert left channel, invert right channel (or invert both channels). audio rotators, so moving the beginning to the left until it crosses over to the end, i.e. “nudge audio left / right”, then there’s rotation for moving the audio waveform up and down for extreme dcoffset and clippy distortion. then there’s a DC Offset kick generator, “Selection in pattern to group” (turn selected tracks into one group)..

midimappings for toggling effects on and off. midimappings + shortcuts for displaying the external editor on Master or selected track, of a specific track. i.e. if you use renoise for mastering and always have certain types of effects on master, you can show/hide that specifically named effect, no matter where it is in the effect chain. and if it’s not in the track dsp chain, then it will be loaded and added in.

uncollapse/collapse all tracks for clearing up visual clutter

Convolver IR export and IR import - when you export the selected IR, it opens up in the sample editor, so you can modify it, then import it back in.

Switch Plugin Auto-Suspend On/Off

“Save All Samples to Backup Folder 1…3” - all samples in the song will be saved to your preferred folder

Unison Generator, takes a chipsound and makes 8 identical copies of it, shifts each of them left by 1/8 to 7/8 - modifies the volume, randomizes finetune, randomizes panning, and drops the overall volume (and includes the instrument macros in the copy) - for a nicer chipsound

there’s hundreds of Section/Sequence/Selection shortcuts for queueing what plays next, or skipping to the next section or previous section or “what’s next in the queue” and wiping the queue

A Global shortcut for Clone Current Sequence

Resize all non-empty patterns to 96 rows.. and Resize all non-empty patterns to current pattern rows Create Identical Track - takes the Note Columns / Effect Columns & Visible Columns&copies

For a selection in sample editor, you can press a shortcut to “create new instrument & loop”. there’s “mute or solo selection in pattern”, expand/shrink selection content shortcuts, set selection to selected instrument.. bypass all effects in track, or enable.. show all parameters of all devices in track

Oblique Strategies Dialog / Loader - it will randomly pick one Oblique Strategy from a list on the status whenever you save or load a song or restart Renoise

Paketti Midi Mappings - it shows some of the Paketti MidiMappings and if you have Midi Mapping “Learn” mode on, you can actually pick them yourself and assign them easily. for better discoverability

Output Routings dialog that shows all the tracks and lets you set the Output Routings in case you have a multi-out soundcard

Shortcuts for setting each track, or the Master, to a specific output routing channel (01-64) for those with multi-out soundcards

Track Renamer - select a bunch of tracks with selection-in-pattern and rename them all in one go, one track at a time

Phrase Doubler / Halver (takes the content of the Phrase and increases the size or decreases the size

Set Phrase Length to 001-004-006-008-012-016-024-032-048-064-096-128-192-256-384-512

Set Pattern LPB 1-256 Set Phrase LPB 1-256

Print current BPM & LPB to Master track of Pattern - so can modify the tempo in another pattern -good for LPB*2 i.e. increasing resolution

Keep Sequence Sorted True/False/Toggle

15 frame fade in fade out for reducing clicks

Duplicate sample, maximize audio, turn to 16bit, save as wav or flac (in case you want to deliver them or post them somewhere)

Flip Sample - this allows for 1/2 1/4 1/8 1/16 flipping/rotating of a sample, good for beats if you wanna flip it or any other type of sample

Select first half of sample buffer shortcut - and second half too. midimappings for select sample buffer start and end, so you can just use two knobs to select the length and modify

Set loop mode off, forward, pingpong, backwards

Copy note-on sample to note-off at transpose 0, +12, +24, -12, -24 meaning when you hit a note off on a bassnote, the same basenote can play an octave higher or lower - good for octave basses

Jump to first track in next group / jump to first track in previous group

Midimappings for select instrument, select track, keyboard octave, editstep 0-64 and 1-64, double editstep halve editstep, beatsync line control / double beatsync / halve beatsync 8 midimappings for controlling the macros of the current instrument. meaning, you use the 8 midimappings on any track and you can control macro knobs without having to assign them to a specific instrument. i.e. they’re “free” / “dynamic” for lack of a better word

Interval generator. shortcuts for adding +1 to +12 to the current note - adds a new note column, moves to it and adds a note that is +x or -x higher/lower than the original basenote. also midimappings for selecting multiple chord intervals - good for experimenting with basenotes and writing intervals in and seeing what happens. couple that with the Paketti Gater and you can go wherever you please really.

Wipe Effects from Selection in Pattern

Shortcuts for showing a specific number of note columns, or effect columns

Expose / hide note columns or effect columns - this replaces the Renoise “add new note column” by actually exposing it AND selecting it. much more intuitive

Direct shortcuts for writing Axx to Zxx effects and their content (+1 -1 +10 -10) to selection or row

Match delay column to current row (or panning, or volume).. means you have a row you’ve

Selected, run the shortcut, every row in the pattern gets the same delay, or panning, or volume setting

Note Interpolation (entering notes from beginning to end of selection so c-1 at 00 and c-5 at 64? every step has an interpolated value based on math

Randomize delay, panning and volume value for selected tracks and their columns

Flood fill with selection - takes your selection and fills the pattern with it in a loop

Shortcuts for setting visible columns (vol,pan,delay,samplefx) for all tracks globally clear/delete track dsp effects from current track

BPM increase +0.1 -0.1 +0.5 -0.5 +1 -1 +5 -5

Bypass all devices on all tracks

Bypass all devices on selected track

Set master output volume in dB to -INF or 0 or -0.1 +0.1 -1 +1 for better control

Midi mappings for setting global groove control 1,2,3,4

Midi Mappings for setting Global Groove 2 & 4 (downbeat?)

Multi-combos like “shortcut for toggling play, record, follow pattern, metronome on/off” or “toggle play,record,followpattern on/off, or record+followpattern on/off

Hide open track dsp device + sample fx device external editors

Shortcuts + menu entries for adding sample modulation devices (all available for volume, pan, cutoff, resonance, overdrive, pitch)

Shortcut for adding and opening formula device

Direct shortcut for exposing the pitchstep device external editor, which is included in all Paketti-loaded samples so you can immediately start pitching it up and around for extra randomness

Visual editmode for highlighting which track is selected, for those with aged eyes and who have grown tired of trying to figure out which track they’ve selected

Volume, panning, delay dialog with 16 sliders - basically another step control for setting specific settings, again 16 steps but can be reduced to 1-16 steps for each, so they can be offset

Shortcuts for starting playback at a specific row (000-512)..

Shortcuts for starting playback at a random line of the pattern, or random 2nd or 4th or 8th row (in order to be able to step across it in a stair/stepped way)

Play current line and step forwards, play current line and step backwards, for those who want to use renoise as a.. musical box?

Shortcuts for selecting a specific track i.e. 1-32, you set the shortcut and it jumps you there

Sample fx group + mod group shortcuts for modifying them, same with mute groups

Show/hide selected track’s device 1 to 64, another external editor shower/hider

A mode to enter where if you’re in effect column, it’ll jump you to the next row in that track that has a note. so you can enter effects to where the notes are

okay.. just realized i completely neglected to talk about the “Paketti Automation” setup.

This brings Master track automation of Global Groove, LPB (1-32), BPM (20-300), EditStep, Octave, EditMode, Recorder, Pattern Length, Instrument Pitch, Instrument LoopStart, Instrument LoopEnd, and 3 other things that remain to be figured out and configured.

this means you can actually automate when the recording is on or off, when sample is being recorded (!), what the selected instrument pitch ir or selected instrument loopstart+loopend, and there’s 3 more additional things that could be automated, if i could just figure out what they are. any ideas?

the reason why there’s LPB + BPM control is that the BPM in Renoise Master track automation is 20-999 (!) and LPB is 1-256, so just a bit too much, i asked around a lot and 20-300 and 1-32 seemed to be the agreed upon, anything more, just let me know (64?). but to maintain automation resolution and “keeping it making sense”, for most uses, these artifiical limitations are alright

i think the reason why i forgot to mention this was that i have had a tough time finding anyone to tell me what else could be done. i did experiments of using automation to change lower frame, middle frame, upper frame views, for instance. basically any script can be run like this. but i couldn’t get anyone to talk to me about what they wanted and gave up and forgot about it

Oldabout

Paketti is a multipurpose Renoise tool. Working like an expansion pack, it delivers hundreds of new functionalities to the app, ranging from Quality-of-Life (QoL) improvements to new advanced features inspired by Impulse Tracker, Schism Tracker, ModPlugTracker, Player Pro, John Player/Quantum SoundTracker/PollyTracker, OctaMED and many others. It also addresses multiple community requests from the Renoise Forum that were not yet considered by the developers.

It is far too complex to sum up in just a few words. However, some notable changes include:

Over ~~three~~ ~~four~~ five thousand new keybinds covering multiple areas of Renoise;
Default XRNI functionality - each loaded instrument or drumkit has Pitchbend, Glide Amount, Cutoff, Resonance, Cutoff LFO Amount, Cutoff LFO Frequency, Overdrive, Parallel Compression.
Automatically load multiple samples into sequential instrument slots;
Device parameter randomizer;
Plugin parameter randomizer;
Change default computer keyboard Velocity with Midi Mapping;
Change Global Grooves with Midi Mapping;
Freeze & Flatten Track -> Creates a new Track with content playing. Also Records incoming audio if #Line-in Device is in the Selected Track;
Quick switch autosuspend for Selected Plugin;
Bypass all devices in Selected Track;
Floating window to insert plugins or Devices and add them as keybinds and MidiMappings;
Floating interactable FX column cheat sheet, including sliders to quickly write changes to row or selection in pattern in your pattern;
Pattern doubler/halver (duplicates the Pattern content, and the automation);
Color/highlight the selected track in Pattern Editor (with EditMode (Record On/Off);
Dozens of shortcuts for Pattern AND Phrase editing;
Impulse Tracker (.it) key commands (ALT-D *2, ALT-L *2, ALT-U, ALT-F, ALT-G, ALT-Y, Home *2, End *2, F2 F3 F4 F5 F6 F8 F12);
Quickly add Automation curves to pattern automation (fade ins/fade outs (linear or exponential), pitchbend/panning);
Show/Hide Device parameters as sliders in the Mixer;
Control Selected Sample loop start/endpoints with MIDI;
Control Automation start / endSelection via MidiMappings
Control Sample Buffer start / endSelection via MidiMappings
And much much more!

Paketti Updates Changelog

2024-06-16 - Improvement: Effect Column CheatSheet Dialog now either outputs to selected_row if no selection, or to the selection.

2024-06-16 - Paketti Effect CheatSheet Dialog

https://www.loom.com/share/29043519c0a548a1a30fd696560f580f?sid=b2bd3dc7-8647-4294-b3d3-01545f44be5b

2024-06-16 - Improvement: Impulse Tracker shortcuts have been renamed to reference `Impulse Tracker` for easier discoverability.

No more guessing. Note: “Mixpaste” is still not working, i started work on it but somehow couldn’t get it going, will hopefully look at that later

2024-06-16 - Improvement: Effect Column writers (shortcuts) now either outputs to selected_row if no selection, or to the selection

their naming has been tweaked also for better discoverability

2024-06-16 - Improvement: “Wipe Song Retain Sample” now no longer errors if the Instrument you selected has no sample.

2024-06-16 - Improvement: Wipe & Slice no longer shoots an error if there is no sample in the instrument. - instead shows a status “No samples available in the selected instrument”.

2024-06-16 - Improvement: Wipe & Slice will tell you how many slices have been added to the instrument, and reference the sample name.

2024-06-16 - Improvement: Wipe & Slice will tell you when you’ve wiped all slices

2024-06-16 - Improvement: LoopBlock “2nd binds” made available with matching naming convention to what Renoise provides

2024-06-16 - Improvement: Enable / Bypass EFX in Pattern now uses the right commands to bypass the first 8 effects, or enable the first 8 effects.

(Meaning: now compatible with Renoise 3)

2024-06-16 - esaruoho

Backend Improvement: there’s now a global function for giving a XML Preset and loading it directly to a plugin. which’ll be useful in the future for loading XML content into active_preset_data for a plugin or a device.

2024-06-16 - Improvement: Whenever saving a script, or saving a song, or loading a new song, or creating a new song, or loading a sample, the view_preset1 would be forcibly shown.

I’ve removed that since it benefits no-one - the viewport should stay the same no matter what

2024-06-17 - Improvement to ImpulseTracker `ALT-L *2` functionality.

Now, if you are on Send or Master, and press ALT-L, it will select the content of the Send or Master track. when you press ALT-L again, it will select all of the pattern data (including sends + masters). instead of “only the tracks and not sends + masters”.

2024-06-17 - Fixed: when using Pattern Doubler to double a 256 row pattern to 512 - and the pattern has automation, there used to be an error shot.

now no error is shot no more and the automation works as expected.

2024-06-17 - Improvement: Sample Navigator now has the “Mono to Stereo” & “Mono to Left, Right Blank” & “Mono to Right, Left Blank” entries

And they’re sorted correctly

2024-06-17 - improvement: tweaked the naming convention of “Bypass EFX (Write to Pattern)” and “Enable EFX (Write to Pattern)”

2024-06-17 - Improvement: Paketti PitchBend DrumKit Loader now correctly sets LoopMode + Sample Interpolation for each of the samples loaded into the drumkit.

2024-06-17 - Improvement: Bypass EFXs are now grouped together

2024-06-17 - esaruoho

Improvement: had to switch from vb:switch for loop release to vb:checkbox - - but now the preferences actually work properly. for loading samples and for slicing.

this Loop Release mode, coupled with Backward - means that whenever you let go of the playing slice, it will start playing backwards until the beginning of the sample is reached.

2024-06-17 - esaruoho

Feature: “Jump to First Track in Next Group” & “Jump to First Track in Previous Group” - as requested by icasiino - pretty much does what it says on the tin - if there are no groups, then it doesn’t do anything.

2024-06-17 - Improvement: 24st_pitchbend, 36st_pitchbend, 48st_pitchbend, 64st_pitchbend, 96st_pitchbend loaders updated with macros set up

these init instruments were lagging behind from 12st_pitchbend which had all the goodies

2024-06-17 - esaruoho

Improvement: Pattern Editor Cheat Sheet: added “0Yxx” (Maybe), “0Zxx” (Trigger Phrase) - tweaked order of effects so they match “Effect Command Cheatsheet on Renoise Forum” .. more tweaks incoming later (additional efx, grouping)

Effect Commands Cheatsheet (Renoise Forum post, printable PDF by someone else)

2024-06-18 - esaruoho

Feature: Globally Enable / Disable Volume Column, Panning Column, Delay Column, Sample FX Column. Available in Global:Tools:Paketti..:Pattern Editor, and Pattern Editor:Paketti..: menu entries, and also as shortcuts.

these change the Column Visibility of all regular Tracks to On/Off (Toggle) or Set to Visible. (found this on a Renoise Forum post by ViZiON from 2008)

2024-06-18 - esaruoho

Improvement: Globally / Enable Visible Columns are now also visible on View -> Paketti.. -> Pattern Editor -> submenu

2024-06-18 - esaruoho

Improvements: Bypass all Effects on Channel now shows status Disabled all Track DSP Devices on Selected Channel Enable all Effects on Channel now shows status Enabled all Track DSP Devices on Selected Channel

Tweaked most Track DSP Device hiding shortcuts + menu entries to make mention of “External Editor” and added "All open External Editors for Track DSP & Sample FX Chain Devices have been closed." and "No Track DSP or Sample FX Chain Device External Editors were open, did nothing." for informing the user what is going on.

this show_status thing will need to be done for hundreds of functions so whenever you see one that doesn’t tell you what it does, hit me up and i’ll tweak it in. there’s too many for it to be doable in one go.

2024-06-19 - esaruoho

Feature: Bypass All Other Track DSP Devices (Toggle) as a keyshortcut, menu entry for Mixer + Track DSP (Lower Frame) – as requested by untilde

2024-06-19 - esaruoho

Improvement: “Jump to First Track in Next Group” & “Jump to First Track in Previous Group” shortcuts added to Pattern Matrix – as requested by icasiino

2024-06-19 - esaruoho

Improvement: 12st, 24st, 36st, 48st, 64st, 96st + drumkit loaders / init instruments now correctly map Cutoff knob to Cutoff, instead of.. Volume.. 🫢 🤦‍♂️

2024-06-19 - esaruoho

Improvement: added “Mono to Stereo, Mono to Left, Mono to Right” to Sample Mappings (=Keyzones) menu

2024-06-20 - esaruoho

Improvement: “Mono to Stereo” “Mono to Left with Right Blank”, “Mono to Right with Left Blank” now retain basenote and other key mapping settings, and are put into the same sample slot as previously (meaning instruments with multiple samples will retain their organization correctly).

2024-06-21 - esaruoho

Improvement: if 0G01 Loader is ON and you Wipe&Slice - new tracks are no longer created for slicecount (if you sliced a sample to 128 slices, you’d get 128 tracks) now you no longer need to protect yourself by disabling 0G01 Loader in order to wipe&slice and then re-enable 0G01 Loader – the wipe&slicer just does the ad-hoc disable at the start of wiping&slicing, and then just re-enables it, if it was enabled. (this closes (https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/183)[https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/183] )

2024-06-21 - esaruoho

Feature: AppSelection GUI now includes method for setting three Smart Folders (for macOS use), instead of hardwiring them to /Users/esaruoho/Music/samples/LogicSmartFolder + /Users/esaruoho/Music/samples/LiveSmartFolder.. I’ve also removed sox usage for adjusting 32bit samples to 24bit samples, which is no longer needed since Logic Pro can handle 32bit wavefiles nowadays.

NOTE: if there are apps out there that can’t handle 32bit wavefiles, please tell me which ones they are, so i can try them out and add “adjust to 16bit” “adjust to 24bit” next to the Smart Folder path buttons.

(this closes (https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/161)[https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/161] )

2024-06-21 - esaruoho

Improvement: If you try to save sample or samples to a Smart Folder that is not set - an error is shown on the status and the Smart Folder GUI opens up

2024-06-21 - esaruoho

Feature: Create Identical Track. if your track has X amount of Note Columns, Effect Columns, Panning, Delay, Volume, Sample FX Columns visible or the track is collapsed – (or if none of these are visible or on), the “Create Identical Track” shortcut will create a Track that matches the track you were on. closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/208 (as requested by ViZiON on the Renoise Forums in January2009)

2024-06-21 - esaruoho

Feature: Randomize Selected Device Parameters:

https://www.loom.com/share/52748313bf284544976bf7f90b62e6c6?sid=b3198df4-229b-47e0-a5ce-465ca11f90e6

2024-06-21 - esaruoho

Feature: Randomize Selected Instrument (All) Plugin Parameters .. but since it randomizes each parameter, you might have a bad time if the synth sets itself to not play anything (outputs that you’re not listening to, etc..)

2024-06-21 - esaruoho

Improvement: Randomize Selected Device Parameters now shows the name of the device that was randomized.

2024-06-21 - esaruoho

Feature: LADSPA/DSSI Device loader (shortcut + midimapper) GUI created. if you have Linux, please DM me and i’ll send you a xrnx and please take some video + screenshots, i can’t test how it works myself. EDIT: there’s apparently some noisy devices there that have a really long name (looking at you:

721  Audio/Effects/LADSPA/lsp-plugins-ladspa.so:http://lsp-plug.in/plugins/ladspa/sc_mb_dyna_processor_stereo

fun. but shoot me some screenshots + video so i can pick up the pieces. seems to work anyway.

2024-06-21 - esaruoho

Improvement: Gainer Exponential Curve Up, Gainer Exponential Curve Down now goes from 0.0dB to INF or from INF to 0.0dB - instead of to “12.5dB” - thus boosting the input signal by +12dB. fixes (https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/171)[https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/171]

usecase: make a way to fade in a sound by adding a gainer device to the track and fading sound in or sound out.

2024-06-22 - esaruoho

Improvement: Moved “Jump to First Track in Next Group” & “Jump to First Track in Previous Group” to Main Menu:Tools:Paketti..:Pattern Editor:

Improvement: Added “Randomize Selected Instrument Plugin Parameters” &.”Randomize Selected Device Parameters” to Tools->Paketti..->Plugins/Devices

2024-06-22 - esaruoho

Feature: Move Slice End Left/Right by +10/-10, +100/-100, Move Slice Start LeftRight by +10/-10 +100/-100: this means that you can be in the slice itself, and adjust the slice visually with nudges.

2024-06-22 - esaruoho

Improvement: Wipe Slices (in Wipe&Slice suite of features) now will properly wipe all slices from the sample even if a slice was selected when you wipe slices. (it used to do nothing)

2024-06-22 - esaruoho

Improvement: If there are no apps configured in App Selection, the dialog does not forcibly open on every new song, Renoise start, etc. Just a show_status message instead:

No apps have been configured in Paketti..:Launch App..:Configure Launch App Selection, cannot populate Menu.

2024-06-22 - esaruoho

Improvement: if no LADSPA or DSSI devices found on computer, display a sensible message (No LADSPA/DSSI Devices found on this computer. ) instead of ruining the GUI by making the buttons not show properly

2024-06-22 - esaruoho

Improvement: if no AU, VST or VST3 plugins found on computer, display a sensible message ( No AudioUnit Plugins found on this computer. or No VST Plugins found on this computer. or No VST3 Plugins found on this computer.) instead of ruining the GUI by making the buttons not show properly

2024-06-23 - esaruoho

Feature: Solo Selected Track in Group using Note Column Mute: closes (https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/106)[https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/106]

2024-06-23 - esaruoho

Improvement: +300/-300 +500/-500 for both Slice Start & Slice End:

2024-06-23 - esaruoho

Improvement: Midi Mapping Sample FX Column knob now shows the Sample FX Column, for better visibility.

2024-06-23 - esaruoho

Improvement: Midi Change 01 Volume Column Value / 02 Panning Column Value / 03 Delay Column Value / 04 Sample FX Value: if you have nothing selected, it’ll output to current_line row. if columns are not visible, they are made visible. if you have a selection, then the whole selection will be changed by midi knobs.

2024-06-23 - esaruoho

Feature: Selected Device Parameter Randomizer Dialog. Offers a slider for controlling percentage of randomization auto-updates to new device if you select a new device.

(https://www.loom.com/share/6358542ad6db449daf581421653548fa?sid=aee4ccb0-2738-4214-933d-0bd5c50eb163)[https://www.loom.com/share/6358542ad6db449daf581421653548fa?sid=aee4ccb0-2738-4214-933d-0bd5c50eb163]

2024-06-23 - esaruoho

Improvement: BPM +0.1 / BPM -0.1 (in addition to +1/+5/-5/-1 already being there since 14 years ago in Paketti.) this is ripped straight from the ModPlugTracker playbook:

2024-06-23 - esaruoho

Improvement: Randomize Selected Device Parameters Dialog now updates if no Device is selected. also, after clicking on the Randomize button, the keyboard focus is returned to Renoise / the Tracker, so you can continue shortcutting+keyjazzing.

2024-06-24 - esaruoho

Feature: “Duplicate Effect Column Content to Pattern”

2024-06-24 - esaruoho

Improvement: “Duplicate Effect Column Content to Pattern or Selection” -> if something is selected, your current row effect parameter is input to selection.. if nothing selected, then the whole pattern gets the effect parameter input

2024-06-24 - esaruoho

Feature: “Randomize Effect Column Parameters for Pattern or Selection”

2024-06-24 - esaruoho

Feature: Effect Column Interpolation for Selection or Pattern.

2024-06-24 - esaruoho

Feature: Flood Fill Selection or Track with Instrument + Note:

2024-06-24 - esaruoho

Improvement: now all Plugin parameters can be randomized, or all plugins in the whole song can be randomized. same GUI as Selected Track Device & All Devices on Selected Track.

2024-06-25 - esaruoho

Improvement: If currently selected instrument has no plugin, Randomize Devices & Plugins dialog will still open. If there are no plugins in the song, then Randomize All Plugins will show_status stating there are no plugins, instead of saying “yes, randomized all plugins in song”. and in the same situation, “Show/Hide all Plugin External Editors” will also show a status. and visual update: the fourth column now has empty space before the “Randomization intensity (%)” line to better line up.

2024-06-26 - esaruoho

Feature: Impulse Tracker ALT-Left / ALT-Right (two flavors, one that Wraps (last track to first track.. or first track to last track), and another that doesn’t wrap (press alt-left enough, and you’ll be in first track but that’s it.. same for alt-right)))

2024-06-28 - esaruoho

Feature: Impulse Tracker “Slide Content Up / Down”. this takes Selected Track.. or Selected Note Column or Selected Effect Column. will slide it up and down.

2024-06-28 - esaruoho

Improvement: Note Interpolation now works on any note column on the track. same with selection. and.. if you have multiple note columns selected, and there’s notes there at the start + end of pattern rows, the interpolation will happen. and if you have a selection within a track, the note interpolation will happen for the whole selection.

2024-06-28 - esaruoho

Feature: ALT-Y “Swap Block” straight from ImpulseTracker2/SchismTracker/ScreamTracker3(?)

2024-06-28 - esaruoho

2024-06-29 - esaruoho

Improvement: Transpose +12 / -12 / +1 / -1 so that if nothing is selected in the pattern, it will transpose the whole selected_track. if something is selected in the pattern, then it’ll transpose the selection. Feature: Transpose +12/-12/+1/-1 for selection, or just current note column.

both of these transposes actually go from C-9 to C-0 if you keep transposing.

Feature: Duplicate Instrument and Reverse Sample – this just takes your currently selected instrument, duplicates it below it, and reverses the samples in the instrument. (and selects the newly created reversed instrument)

2024-06-30 - esaruoho

Improvement: F5 “Impulse Tracker Play” used to have a 0.4 second delay after Panic + playback starting. it was to avert plugins from crashing (F5 is a macro that stops playback, runs Renoise Panic (to kill all audio) and then starts playback with follow pattern = on)) - now i cut it down to 0.225second, so it “feels less sluggish”.

2024-07-01 - esaruoho

2024-07-05 - esaruoho

Improvement: Solo Tracks will now:

Work if the selected track is a Send - the rest of the Sends + Tracks are muted.
Mute Sends if selected track is a Track, or if Selection In Pattern covers tracks.
Work if Selected Track is within a Group - mutes the rest of the Tracks within the Group, but keeps the Group playing.
If you Selection in Pattern say tracks4-5, and run shortcut, and then move Selection In Pattern to 5-6 and run shortcut, 5-6 will be unmuted and the rest muted. this used to mess up.
Master is ignored and is not allowed to shoot error. (i.e. script no longer tries to mute Master for no reason.)

still ironing out 4 other issues, then it’s ready. .. 🫢

2024-07-05 - esaruoho

Feature: Isolate Slices to New Instruments - this takes the slices in your sliced instrument, and copies all their settings and modes, and creates new instruments, naming them according to the slice. available in Sample Editor, Sample Navigator, Sample Mappings and Instrument Box. and a global shortcut.

2024-07-05 - esaruoho

Improvement: the Smart Folders segment of this dialog has been, more understandably, modified to include “Backup Folders” and for the buttons to refer to “Folders” instead of “Smart Folders” - because the usecase is of course that you can set the folder of your choice to be a folder that’s a smart folder (macOS) or any folder (such as a backup folder). think “folder 1 = drums, folder 2 = melodies, folder 3 = pads” or something like that

2024-07-05 - esaruoho

2024-07-08 - esaruoho

Feature: You can now Export the Convolver IR to a new Instrument, which will export it and then show the Sample Editor. You can also, after modifying, Import the Selected Sample back to the Selected Device (Convolver). if anyone’s into IRs, please DM me and I’ll send a build and we can continue looking at this - i need plenty of IRs to make sure it all works

2024-07-08 - esaruoho

Improvement: There’s now a connection between 0G01 loader and Paketti PitchBend Multiple Sample Loader - if 0G01 loader is set to On, then new tracks will be created per each loaded sample, and each track will cleanly have a instr automation device added, so there’s no longer a flood of instr automation devices for the track you were on, i.e. you load 36 samples and there’s 36 instr automation devices on selected_track.

same shortcut that opens the dialog, renders the sample
espeak path is stored in Preferences
settings stored in Preferences
Sample Editor is brought up after rendering, so you can see what happened
Can select whether new instrument is rendered or sample.

Plumbing: Paketti has KeyBindings.xml files inside the script itself, I’ve moved them to the KeyBindings folder. These are, for now, only used for storing the “macOS Paketti” shortcuts.. The objective is to eventually offer a PakettimacOS / PakettiWindows / PakettiLinux KeyBindings files, but that is further down the line.

2024-07-25 - esaruoho

Improvement: 12st_Pitchbend now has

a deactivated “Mono” device for Monoing up the output

Improvement: “Pitchbend” is now part of the “start from center” brigade for drawing automation using midimapping. (the Default XRNI had PitchBend, but that’s now called X_PitchBend since it’s not to be touched (since the addition of the Inertia for Gliding with Pitchbend).

2024-07-25 - esaruoho

Improvement: added *Instr. MIDI Control, *Instr. Automation and *Instr. Macros to blacklist of SampleFX Chain - so they can no longer be added even if you have them shortcutted - meaning that no error will be shot but a warning will be shot on the show_status.

On start of Dialog, returns focus to Pattern Editor, so you can keep selecting, tracking, while using the dialog.
now correctly shows the pattern effect command + effect description in show_status, and the GUI no longer says “0Axx” in button only to be followed by textfield starting with “0Axx - “. (no need to show redundant information twice)
now writes properly to the selected effect columns and selected note columns - no matter where your cursor is. doing the note column + effect column math to figure out where to write. so your “not-selected” effect columns, and “not-selected note columns” are safe.
the dialog sliders are in the correct places (aligned to the right, so the gui looks better)
if you select a Group, Master or Send track, the Delay,Volume,Panning sliders no longer shoot errors.
If you have Group, Master or Send tracks in Selection In Pattern, the Delay,Volume,Panning sliders no longer shoot errors.
the cursor no longer jumps to the effect column, if you’re on note column, instead writing to the effect column from the note column.
if the selection_in_pattern does not have any effect columns selected, and you press a button for inputting an effect, the first effect column will be used.

2024-07-30 - esaruoho

Improvement: CheatSheet randomize functions improvements:

Randomize Min/Max Only - if it is on, the randomize switches from min value and max value - so you can pick your favorite min value and max value and that will be the only content put to the selection in pattern, or whole track.
Don’t Overwrite - if this checkbox is On, the buttons you click during randomize will not overwrite currently existing effect content
Fill All checkbox replaced with 0% to 100% Slider - Slider at 100% ? fill all. Slider at 10%? Fill Probability will be 10%.
fixed ZTxx and Txx effects so the min + max are properly used, instead of erraneously introduced default values.

Improvement: Paketti KeyBindings Dialog:

KeyBinding names sorted alphabetically
Padding added for shortcuts -> easier to see, matching padding on each tab
Important note added ( NOTE: KeyBindings.xml is only saved when Renoise is closed - so this is not a realtime / updatable Dialog. Make changes, quit Renoise, and relaunch this Dialog)
Pattern Editor added to list of Menu_Entries (meaning, you can right click in a place such as sample editor, pattern editor, instrument box, mixer, pattern sequencer, pattern matrix.. and you’ll see the available shortcuts in that Section because the dialog opens and selects that place

This shows all the Midi Mappings created by Paketti. if you also open the CMD-M Midi Mappings Dialog and enter the Extended mode, clicking on the button selects the Midi Mapping and you can press a button, twist a knob or move a slider to assign that. fastest way to onboard yourself into the features Paketti introduces. I’ve also tweaked the namings of all the midimappings, and grouped them accordingly.

2024-08-08 - esaruoho

Feature: Paketti Clean Render Track or Group with LPB*2

Ok, so what this does is pretty much identical to Paketti Clean Render - except.. right after it diskwrites, it writes current BPM + LPB to Master of current pattern then it clones the pattern, increases LPB by *2 (so 4 -> 8), and writes BPM + LPB to Master of the new cloned pattern, which non-destructively replaces the original_pattern, and then puts in the sample onto the new track. closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/65

more updates coming

2024-08-09 - esaruoho

Feature: NumPad SelectPlay 0-8 now works with MidiMappings (single trigger, not double trigger). what this does is, you can play instrument slots 00 to 08 with pads. why is it called NumPad? Because there’s also a version for NumPads. NOTE: this will NOT play the sample. it WILL however record to the pattern. if you have a quick pattern running, you can tap in beats and keep tapping in more beats. it will input a note to “current row”. the note will always be C-4. while it is of course possible to fingerdrum a singular instrument’s drums, this is for fingerdrumming instruments 00 to 08.

2024-08-09 - esaruoho

Improvement: NumPad SelectPlay 0-8 will now warn the user to select a note column, if on effect column.

2024-08-09 - esaruoho

Improvement: Paketti Gater now has LPB*2 and LPB/2 buttons for Clone Current Pattern and set LPB*2 and Clone Current Pattern and set LPB/2 what these do, is, print current LPB + BPM to current pattern.. then if you run LPB*2 , it makes an identical copy of the same pattern, selects the new pattern, prints LPB*2 and BPM to the pattern. LPB/2 does the LPB halving so LPB4 becomes 2.

Also, Print now writes to the amount of rows in the pattern, instead of only writing to 64 rows of the pattern.

2024-08-09 - esaruoho

Improvement: Paketti Gater now will output L00 & LC0 - in case you want to flip the mixer volume instead of sample volume.

2024-08-09 - esaruoho

Improvement: Clear FX Column would not clear L00/LC0 columns. now it clears them. if you resize the pattern while dialog is open, now the maximum amount of rows to be printed to will be set on every Print, instead of “set on start of dialog”.

2024-08-09 - esaruoho

Improvement: Receive would receive volume or retrig stuff from where the cursor was, not from the beginning of the pattern. it now receives it from the beginning of the pattern.

edit: this is a KeyShortcut that i run in the video. i select tracks with mouse or keyboard (regular renoise feature), then run the shortcut and bang, the tracks that are in the selection, are grouped) (idea from https://forum.renoise.com/t/fastest-group/34495) (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/521 )

Embedded Link

before: here’s hey ho huh and track 08 selected after: here’s the selection grouped. 👍

2024-09-04 - esaruoho

Feature: There’s now a Customization folder inside Paketti which includes the transparent “Badge” & “Logo” images - so that your Renoise can look like this (i.e. Renoise logos from bottom right + R badge in Instrument Box are removed) note, the copying is manual work since Renoise cannot be open at the same time. These are just stashed so they are safe.

2024-09-04 - esaruoho

Improvement: Paketti Gater now correctly writes a 0P7F for real Center, when wiping Panning with no entries. EDIT: it’s actually a bug in Renoise. they say 0P80 is center, but when you right-click on Center, it says 0P7F and neither of them are Center. i’ve reported it.

2024-09-04 - esaruoho

2024-09-04 - esaruoho

Improvement: Unison Generator now introduces randomized Panning (Hard Left / Hard Pan), and Finetuning happens randomly between -8 and 8 finetune values.

2024-09-04 - esaruoho

Feature: Chordsplus - this one is heavily in progress. Basically, you select a note on the first note column, and run either “add 1” to “add 12” - what it does is, print a note on the second note column that is pitched upwards by the number. so “add 3”? C-4 now has D#4 on the second note column. add 4? C-4 now has E-4 on the second note column. you can continue until you get to the 12th note column, after which, you’ll be kicked back to the first note column but next row.

then, the same for sub to sub 12 - you have a C-4 on note column and run sub12? you now have C-3 on the next note column and that column is selected. this means you can quickly put together a chord with intervals.

but that’s not all.

there are ready-made chords that you bang out with a shortcut (check second screenshot). this means, you run the script while cursor is on a basenote -> result is a chord.

and the real deal is the midimapping. Global:Paketti:Chord Selector [0-127] <- this means you’re on any row with a note on notecolumn1 -> twist a knob, and you’ve output an interval based on the note the cursor is under. meaning a large amount of possibilities of chords and variations.

note: this is very much a work in progress so if you’re seeing intervals that are missing, send me a DM with the intervals (run them as “3-4-4-3” meaning 3rd transpose of basenote, 4th transpose of 2nd note, 4th transpose of 3rd note and 3rd transpose of 4th note.

I’m also introducing “Toggle Note Off to all Visible Note Columns on track” and a “Phrasing Randomizer” which takes the notes on your row and transposes them by 1, 2, 3 octaves up or down.

if you have any ideas, please get in touch.

2024-09-05 - esaruoho

2024-09-09 - esaruoho

Feature: “Set Repeater Value” MidiMapping. this takes a leaf from the Show/Hide Slot book, but instead of opening an external editor, one knob will 1. add Repeater if it is not already in Selected Track 2. change the parameters from parameterspace

Off, 1/1 Even, 1/1 Triplet, 1/1 Dotted, 1/2 Even, 1/2 Triplet, 1/2 Dotted, 1/4 Even, 1/4 Triplet, 1/4 Dotted, 1/8 Even, 1/8 Triplet, 1/8 Dotted, 1/16 Even, 1/16 Triplet, 1/16 Dotted, 1/32 Even, 1/32 Triplet, 1/32 Dotted, 1/64 Even, 1/64 Triplet, 1/64 Dotted, 1/128 Even, 1/128 Triplet, 1/128 Dotted

2024-09-11 - esaruoho

Improvement: Record Automation to Selected Parameter” will now write it to selected automation range, if there is such a thing. but if playback + follow pattern is ON, then it will write to playhead position.

2024-09-12 - esaruoho

Feature: Selected Device Automation Parameter 001-128 midimappings added. This means, you select a Device on TrackDSP, and twist a knob, and if it has a parameter in the knob you’ve set (001-128), that parameter will change, in the device, no automation. BUT if you have EditMode on, then the parameter value change is written to automation automatically to currentStep (not following playhead) BUT if you have EditMode + Playing on, then the automation is written to playStep -> following playhead.

this means you will automate, with your battery of knobs or sliders, the value of any parameter in a selected device. - or if not recording, then simply change the parameter of any device. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/543)

2024-09-20 - esaruoho

Improvement: Coluga / YT-DLP now has a textfield for storing the location of the yt-dlp executable. This, along with the heavy plumbing i did, converting the bash script (which was macOS only, really) to full LUA, should allow yt-dlp to successfully download YouTube videos in full and add them as samples into a new instrument, complete with the Default XRNI Instrument (and it’s macros) automatically added, on macOS, Linux and Windows. It’s been a long time in coming (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/570)

2024-09-20 - esaruoho

Sidequest: In case you’re wondering about the drop-off on updates on this channel, it’s because I’ve been reworking the Sononymph tool so that it has more and better features, and improve the Configuration file detection. here’s a screenshot or two. Sononymph is a tool that allows for a deep integration between Sononym and Renoise, and I’ve added certain features to it that “made sense” to have. If I include this in Paketti, I’ll have to do a complete rewrite of it, so that it fits into how Paketti has been coded. I’m in contact with danoise about these features and hoping to see some, shall we say, official progress, further down the line. If he has abandoned it, I’ll rewrite it and include it in Paketti.

2024-09-20 - esaruoho

Another sidequest: I’ve received permission from Martblek to take his “Simple Beat Detector” tool, which uses a lowpass filter to detect low-end beats and create slices, and modify it. I’ve been working on it, and now it has both lowpass and highpass filters for detecting beats, and therefore it now detects hihats too, not only bassdrums. It’s still a work in progress, though - I want it to be better than the Renoise transient detection, before I will ship it in Paketti. Here’s a rudimentary video.

2024-09-20 - esaruoho

Improvement: I’ve added three TouchOSC specific shortcuts, designed for switching to Pattern Editor, or to Sample Editor, and the third one starts sampling and stops it. So press a button and hold it down on TouchOSC - Renoise samples a new sample. Let go -> stops sampling.

2024-09-20 - esaruoho

Plumbing: Finally removed all the four separate Load VST, Load VST3, Load AU, Load LADSPA/DSSI, Load Native device dialogs from the code since there’s only one preferred dialogs that loads all 6 things.

2024-09-20 - esaruoho

Improvement: Added Graphite RC1 and Yellow Harmony to Paketti Theme Selector

2024-09-20 - esaruoho

Plumbing: Moved features around in codebase

2024-09-20 - esaruoho

Feature: Expose and Select New Column Hide Current and Select Previous Column these are slightly smarter shortcut replacements for the Renoise “Add New Column” .. It not only adds the new column (effect or note column) but also selects the column. if you’re on the 12th note column and remove one, then you’re on the 11th note column. same for if you’re on the 8th effect column and remove one, then you’re on the 7th effect column. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/567 & https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/505)

2024-09-21 - esaruoho

Improvement: When loading a Plugin using a shortcut, the Middle Frame would change from “Midi tab” to “Sample tab” - mostly to Sample Editor. Added some logic to avert that, and also made sure that if you’re in the Plugin Phrase Editor, you are no longer transported to Sample Phrase Editor. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/551)

2024-09-21 - esaruoho

Improvement: Expose and Select New Column & Hide Current and Select Previous Column are now available as MidiMappings

2024-09-21 - esaruoho

Improvement: Osionik has sent four more themes to me. Osi-BladeRunner Osi-Moss1 Osi-TheBlueBrandy Osi-TrackerHacker they’ve been added to the Themes. Now there’s a total of 516 themes in the Paketti Theme Selector. If you have any additional themes, please send them my way via DM.

2024-09-21 - esaruoho

Feature: “Flood Fill Column with Row”. if you are on effect column 1 and what’s on the row you wanna fill the pattern with, then run this. or note column.

2024-09-21 - esaruoho

2024-09-21 - esaruoho

Improvement: The “Selected Instrument Macros1-8” generation has been simplified so it is no longer so over-the-top. they’re no longer dynamically created, they just exist. this should avert an error caused in a newer version of Renoise that’s currently in alpha.

2024-09-22 - esaruoho

Improvement: Added noby’s “Mango theme” to Paketti Theme Selector

2024-09-22 - esaruoho

Update: Removed “Gainer Exponential Curve” from Pattern Matrix, KeyBindings, Track Automation etc. this can be done properly with other Paketti Automation shortcuts + menu entries. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/471)

2024-09-22 - esaruoho

Improvement: Flood Fill Note and Instrument with Step will now also Flood Fill the Effect Column content. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/398)

(Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/513)

2024-09-23 - esaruoho

Improvement: ALT-Y Swap Block now correctly swaps Volume, Panning, Delay, SampleFX Columns and makes them visible in the new track.

2024-09-23 - esaruoho

Improvement: If you are on Master track and load samples using the Paketti PitchBend Multiple Sample Loader / Paketti PitchBend Drumkit Sample Loader, the *Instr.

2024-09-23 - esaruoho

Improvement: ALT-Y Swap Block now finally, correctly, also swaps the effect column content, and makes the correct amount of effect columns visible in the track where they are being swapped to.

2024-09-23 - esaruoho

Feature: Set Pattern Length to LPB*001 to Set Pattern Length to LPB*512 added (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/420)

2024-09-23 - esaruoho

Improvement: Pattern Editor context menu reorganizations - submenus, no longer scrollbar galore. and somewhat better organized anyway (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/330)

2024-09-24 - esaruoho

Improvement: Pattern Editor CheatSheet now looks like this, so more optimized. almost 100% there with the Randomize buttons - they will only randomize the rows that do have content. volume, panning, delay, samplefx already work. just effect columns to go. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/316)

2024-09-25 - esaruoho

Improvement: Pattern CheatSheet now follows “Randomize whole track if nothing is selected”, otherwise reads selection in pattern, and if no selection, and “randomize whole track” is off -> then it just outputs to current row. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/589)

2024-09-25 - esaruoho

Improvement: Paketti Preferences now (again) closes and opens without issues multiple times. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/587)

2024-09-25 - esaruoho

Improvement: Wipe Effects from Selection will now only wipe the selected effect columns, not all effect columns of the track. and if there’s multiple effect columns selected across multiple tracks, it’ll still continue working and only wipe the effect columns that were selected.

2024-09-25 - esaruoho

Improvement: Added 2nd keybinds for “Impulse Tracker Pattern (Next)” / “Impulse Tracker Pattern (Previous)” (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/202)

2024-09-25 - esaruoho

Feature: Impulse Tracker ALT-X (interpolate, or, if already interpolated, wipe) (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/205)

2024-09-25 - esaruoho

Improvement: The Center-to-Bottom & Center-to-Top automation drawing while in Automation, from menu entry, now properly starts from 0.5 instead of “slightly off”. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/124)

2024-09-25 - esaruoho

Feature: Toggle Match EditStep with Note Placement. This is meant for Effect Column use. If you are on the Effect Column and you toggle this off, the EditStep will dynamically change to match the “next note”. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/128)

2024-09-25 - esaruoho

Improvement: Paketti PitchBend Multiple Sample Loader had regressed to no longer working due to Coluga changes. Fixed. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/590)

2024-09-27 - esaruoho

Improvement: Normalize no longer worked with Coluga or eSpeak or Audio Processing Dialog - due to a regression. fixed.

2024-09-27 - esaruoho

Improvement: eSpeak now has a brand new checkbox, called “Add Render to Current Instrument” - which will add a new slot and add the render there. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/307)

2024-09-28 - esaruoho

Improvement: After a ton of plumbing, I got eSpeak dialog to open and close and open without erroring out. also some tweaks to how it looks.

2024-09-28 - esaruoho

Improvement: Player Pro Note Dialog is now a Global shortcut and takes you to the Pattern Editor so it “immediately makes sense”

2024-09-28 - esaruoho

Plumbing: in preparation for making it possible to set a user-defined key for closing a dialog, I’ve modified the following dialogs to follow the forthcoming user-defined key:

Paketti Preferences

Player Pro Tools Dialog

2024-09-30 - esaruoho

Improvement: Track Routings dialog ui has been tweaked, so the dropdown menus will show a longer output channel name, and margins have been removed.

2024-09-30 - esaruoho

Feature: Output Routing (Serial, Continual) & (Serial, Non-Continual) - this maps the Outputs for all tracks including master + sends. it is serial. continual will go through the list continually, non-continual will map as many outputs as you have, and the rest of the tracks will have the same output channel, if output channels have been exhausted. there are “omit Master & include Master” flavors of each. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/542)

2024-09-30 - esaruoho

Improvement: the “Selected Track Send 01-64” has been changed from volume control to On/Off toggle. and the placement can be anywhere in the selected track. first send is first send. doesn’t matter where it is. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/428)

2024-09-30 - esaruoho

Improvement: added the “Master is in Loop” too flavors for Output Routing: (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/597)

2024-10-01 - esaruoho

Feature: Play current line + step forwards & Play current line + step backwards shortcuts. These will toggle follow pattern off, and step forwards, or backwards. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/599)

2024-10-01 - esaruoho

Feature: Set Output Routings to Master, and Master to ` 1 & 2` (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/600)

2024-10-01 - esaruoho

Improvement: added “Play Current Line&Step Random” which steps to a random step in the current pattern. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/602)

2024-10-01 - esaruoho

Feature: Clean Render Seamless Track/Group.. this will take your <256 row pattern, duplicate it to max 512 rows, i.e. play it “twice”, then render it, select the first half of the sample, and add a loop from the end of the first half to the end of the second half. meaning, seamless loops with reverb tails. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/280)

2024-10-01 - esaruoho

Feature: Rotate Sample by 1/2, 1/4, 1/18, 1/16 this will flip your beat by a fraction of the whole beat. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/362)

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Feature: Play at Random Line in Current Pattern, 2, 4 or LPB. this will either, if follow pattern off, move the cursor to a random line in the pattern-space, or if set to 2, move to a matching.. or 4, move to a matching, or LPB, move to a matching LPB space. so if you have 64 row pattern and LPB is 8, then it’ll only randomize all the “8th” rows if that makes sense. also available for midimapping. and if follow pattern is on, it will actually kick you to play the random line it picks. and no duplicate lines will be hit - so if you’re already on row 48, pressing a randomizer will not accidentally kick you to row 48. enjoy (and remember to use autoseek! if you’re working with loops)

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Feature: Play at Row 001-512 (Shortcut + midimapping) (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/603)

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Feature: Stepper Dialog for Volume, Delay, Panning - Auto-Grab will also automatically grab the current track’s settings. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/340)

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Improvement: OctaMED Pick/Put Dialog now

has Load / Save buttons for loading and saving the Slots
Will work with Group, Send and Master - no longer putting in Note Column content to a track that has no Note Columns - instead only putting in Effect Columns
Will no longer overwrite Notes if Putting in a Effect Column only Slot.
has a Randomize slider + Randomize checkbox so you can randomize how many times the Slot is put in (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/463 & https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/461 & https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/462 )

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Improvement: Renoise KeyBindings Dialog now, again, correctly opens in the right context - open it in Sample Editor? -> Shows Sample Editor selection. open it in Pattern Editor ? -> Shows Pattern Editor selection. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/407)

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Feature: Paketti Macro 01 - this is designed for setting your own preferred middle frame views. so meaning, you have one shortcut that cycles through the ones you have selected. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/379)

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Feature: “Wipe All Columns of Selected Track” - fully wipes the whole track all note columns all effect columns and all columns.

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Improvement: “Play at Row 001-512” now also includes HEX next to it.

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Improvement: “Play at Row 000-511” makes more sense 😉

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Improvement: Play at Row will now default to “Play Current Line” and move to that Line, if playback is not on. if playback is on, then it just plays from that line. (Both this and the above two close https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/606)

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Improvement: while eSpeak dialog is open, and no textfield is selected, pressing ctrl-R will refresh (reload) the textfile. ctrl-enter will “Generate Sample”. alt-enter will “Generate Selection” (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/264)

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Feature: Dynamic MidiMapping for Compressor (Threshold, Ratio, Release, Makeup), RingMod (Note, Transpose, Dry/Wet), CombFilter (Note, Transpose, Feedback, Dry/Wet) meaning, once you bind them, you can modify them no matter where they are in the Selected Track.

https://www.loom.com/share/e7360634fec44795bd8ace4ebafccc01?sid=4b7073bb-4bfa-4654-8fde-a26700fa35a9 (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/410)

2024-10-02 - esaruoho

Improvement: EQ10 now also Dynamically MidiMapped (closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/608)

2024-10-03 - esaruoho

Feature: Start/Stop Sample Recording and Pakettify it. This means you have one shortcut, that immediately creates a new instrument slot, selects it, writes onto it .. and injects the Macros, Paketti Loader default autofade, autoseek, oneshot, interpolation, mutegroup, new note action, oversample, beatsync, interpolation into it. (but detail: you have to have “Create a new instrument on each take” off). this way anything you sample using the function, will always be Pakettified.

2024-10-05 - esaruoho

Feature: Inverter Device. This is a Gainer device with Invert set for both channels. (idea was touched upon on the Facebook Renoise “Workflows/Painpoints” chatgroup - seems valid, here it is) (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/613)

2024-10-05 - esaruoho

Improvement: If you add a VST/VST3/AU/LADSPA/DSSI device to Sample Chain, that specific device is selected - allowing for direct randomization or other modifications

2024-10-07 - esaruoho

Improvement: I made the Gainer device load into Sample FX Chain too

2024-10-07 - esaruoho

Update: If you’re wondering about the lack of updates, I’ve been working on a quite massive dialog + Dynamic View script which started around thursday-friday as (image1).. then changed to (image2).., and kept ballooning up until we’re now at: (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/379 & https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/605) it’s still WIP so I’ll describe it better, just an update so you know that it’s coming and that’s why it’s been tumbleweed town on this channel. (i was also on a trip to play a gig on friday and only returned last night at 9pm). there’s updates coming, that’s for sure.

2024-10-07 - esaruoho

Feature: Paketti Dynamic View Dialog + 8 Shortcuts. There’s 4 Cycle slots per Dialog (1-4 Dialog & 5-8 Dialog). This lets you fully configure a cycle-based shortcut (Dynamic View 01 to Dynamic View 08) with full control over Upper Frame, Middle Frame, Lower Frame and Visibility (Disk Browser, Instrument Box, Sample Recorder, Pattern Matrix, Pattern Advanced Edit). you can set up your own preferred shortcut for the controls. I believe this is the maximum control that the Renoise API allows for ViewModes, and they are dynamic, so you can set a maximum of 8 cycles, i.e. one shortcut will start from the first slot, then proceed to the next and next and next. there’s also a system for saving and loading the presets. Enjoy.

2024-10-08 - esaruoho

Feature: Select 00…F0 in Instrument Box. if the Slot/Chunk does not exist, it creates it. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/585)

2024-10-08 - esaruoho

Improvement: Added BPM +1 -1 +0.1 -0.1 +0.5 -0.5 as MidiMappings This comes from the Renoise Forum request from October 2012 - https://forum.renoise.com/t/bpm/37363 (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/615)

2024-10-08 - esaruoho

Feature: Wipe&Slice now has a Paketti Preference for “Off”. this means that even if the original sample that you want to wipe&slice DOES have a beatsync set up, the slices will NOT have beatsync set up. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/611)

2024-10-08 - esaruoho

Feature: Create New Track&Load Random Device Chain/Preset this takes the DeviceChains/ folder already available in Paketti, creates a new track, and loads either a random .XRNT or a random .XRDP inside Paketti, onto the track. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/358)

2024-10-08 - esaruoho

2024-10-10 - esaruoho

Feature: “Clear all Track DSPs from Selected Track”. This will, well, wipe all the TrackDSPs from the Selected Track. that was simple.

2024-10-11 - esaruoho

Sidequest: In order to make it easier for me to “pick something to do” from the 120+ tickets on Paketti, I improved this script that picks a random ticket:

https://tobycm.github.io/random-issue-picker/?url=https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues&fetch

so running this resulted in me working on one long-standing ticket that i’ve been now tweaking for 1,5 days. Embedded Link

2024-10-11 - esaruoho

Update: I’m working on the same large new feature that i started yesterday morning and am hopefully gonna be able to finish it before Wednesday. Am making great progress with it. stay tuned. send a DM if interested in previews

2024-10-13 - esaruoho

Improvement: There’s a theoretically-working-with API5 build Paketti (older version), which might work with Renoise v3.1.1. I don’t have it available to me right now so can’t check. it disables eSpeak, BeatDetector and removes all font styling.

2024-10-13 - esaruoho

Improvement: more alterations to API5 Older build, this should now evade certain errors encountered

2024-10-14 - esaruoho

Feature: Paketti Groovebox 8120. this is a 8 row groovebox, 16 steps per row. each step count can be modified between 1-16. it will, in realtime, output to the pattern editor. youcan load instruments into it using Browse - meaning, one instrument can have max 120 samples. so you can load 120 kicks, 120 snares, 120 hihats, 120 claps, 120 rimshots, 120 rides, 120 toms and 120 randompercs in, and use the Selection Slider or Random button to immediately change to one of them. there’s also direct routing for automating pitchbend / cutoff / the Paketti Macro works. there’s a Random Gate which will fill the 16 steps across all 8 rows in such a way that only one of the 8 instruments will be playde on that row. there’s Global Groove controls. there’s mute buttons for muting them. there’s a Random Fill which will modify the Step counts and fill randomly. you can control bpm, play, follow pattern. when you move Select or Random slider, it shows the Sample Editor. when you click on Step-count of on Follow or Play, or a checkbox in the stepsequencer, it shows the pattern editor. when you click on Random Groove, or enable Global Groove, or Global Groove sliders, it shows you the Global groove. when you click on Show Automation, it shows you the automation. Here’s a little video demo of it:

https://www.loom.com/share/a6866eb0d331409ab092a7c13c5b357e?sid=2d20a67e-0d3b-4c63-810b-903ad21f1c99

I’m still improving on this, but this is the thing i’ve been working on for 3-4 days. Will keep cracking away at it until it does everything I want and when using it in a jam session type deal, i don’t get any additional ideas. I’m open to any suggestions, out of interest, but let’s please not blow this out of proportion by demanding lots of more rows etc. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/448)

2024-10-14 - esaruoho

Improvement: I’ve been tweaking the Instrument Box and Tools Menu Entries and organizing them in a better way. also moved the WIP/Unfinished stuff to “Xperimental/Work in Progress” submenu, for better discoverability. also some copywrite tweaks (“…” = Dialog, “..” = Submenu). removed Clean Render menu entries from Instrument Box because they’re Pattern Editor/Mixer specific, and just in general doing more discoverability/readability tweaks. aka “instrument box shouldn’t talk about samples too much when they can be in sample editor/sample navigator”

2024-10-24 - esaruoho

Improvement: Removed “Add 64 slices to instrument” since 84 already exists. Added 84 to Instrument Box, Sample Editor, Sample Navigator. Some Menu Entries were tied to “Sample Navigation” instead of “Sample Navigator” so they did not get shown Removed Unison Generator from Instrument Box Menu Entries Tweaked Sample Mappings Menu Entries look and organization Added “Configure Launch App Selection…” to Sample Editor and Sample Navigator submenus Hid Coluga/yt-dlp (since it’s WIP) from Sample Navigator, Sample Editor and Instrument Box Added 7F/00 switcher to Keyzones tab

If you’re already in the nearest instrument, and Pattern Editor and Automation are showing, then show Track DSPs. (Related to some discussions at https://forum.renoise.com/t/sample-selection/20837, so 2007.. )

2024-10-28 - esaruoho

I pretty much ended up using most of today trying to get the Paketti Manual GitHub page working, didn’t make much headway, the markdown is not correctly parsed. but also filtered through tons of Renoise Threads

2024-10-29 - Improvement: Midi Mapping cleanup

Improvement: Moved the path of these so there’s no “Global:Paketti” for MidiMappings, instead Paketti: for these

2024-10-29 - esaruoho

Improvement: Unison Generator will no longer error out if being run on an instrument with multiple samples. it will instead make a copy of the selected sample, and start the unison generator process. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/662)

2024-10-30 - esaruoho

Updates: I’ve merged the paketti manual work with the brickwall of text into one article instead of multiple pages. and wrote some more stuff to the brickwall and did the first rudiments of organizing it a bit better. i’ll need to split it into little pieces and group them by themes and areas. It’s a longform project, would probably take me a month to get it done fully and properly Added some more Loom videos to it

2024-10-30 - esaruoho

Improvement: Added shortcuts and midimappings for controlling Automation playmode - so you can set it to Points, Lines or Curves at will. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/667)

2024-10-31 - esaruoho

Improvement: I’ve added 8 midiknobs that fit the 0…127 values into 1…8 for cycling through the Dynamic Views. if there’s only two cycles configured for a dynamic view - then 0-64 will change to cycle1, and 65-127 to cycle2. this means, you can configure a max of 8 different dynamic view states as per one Dynamic View number, and use one knob to switch between these views. so if you have a situation where you absolutely must quickly run from pattern editor to sample editor to sample editor with sample recorder showing to mixer to pattern editor with automation, to.. sample phrases.. to.. something - you can do it with the twist of a knob. (closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/656)

https://www.loom.com/share/7dc5d7710ad844f081e4af89a8d85af8?sid=d601b232-ea0e-44f5-a508-24a8023416ca

2024-11-03 - esaruoho

Feature: “Duplicate Pattern & Clear Muted Tracks” -> you’re on a pattern. you have a bunch of muted tracks. you maybe have some automation, and also some pattern matrix muted tracks. you run the shortcut. now, below the selected pattern, there’s a newly created (and selected) pattern, with the muted tracks(notes+automation) cleared, the pattern matrix mutes retained. and if the pattern had a name, then the name is repeated, with (mutes cleared) added, and if the pattern had no name, then the name is printed as pattern <number> (mutes cleared) got the suggestion from a thread in Trackercorps Discord.

https://www.loom.com/share/d5a591475e7c407ea25d43ebce1d9d9b?sid=20ff4b86-2014-4edc-b141-b64d84d6f946

2024-11-03 - esaruoho

Feature: “Nudge and Paste Selection” This will, instead of adding the padding of silence, instead, read the selection on the track, move the rest of the track down by the selection row count, then paste in the content.

2024-11-03 - esaruoho

Improvement: “Switch to Automation” will now actually switch to the Automation view, if you’re in the Sample Editor and you already had Automation displaying elsewhere (such as pattern editor, mixer, etc). so it will cleanly, reliably, always move you to the track automation.

2024-11-03 - esaruoho

Feature: Duplicate Selected Sample at -12/-24/+12/+24 menu entries, shortcuts and midimappings added. This will take the current sample, duplicate it, and set the transpose of the duplicate to one of those. good for doubling up a sample.

2024-11-03 - Improvement: Load new sample with current slice markers now also loads sample settings and all slice settings to the new one.

2024-11-03 - esaruoho

Feature: Randomize Automation Parameter. this is a global shortcut that will run anywhere, without needing you to focus automation just to randomize. if there’s no envelope, it creates a new one. if there’s a selection in envelope, it randomizes that. if you have pattern editor + automation displaying, and use ALT-D *2 to select, you get to select an amount of automation rows and randomize that. at the end of the gif i use the Paketti loader shortcuts to shoot in some track dsp fx and then start automating them (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/issues/665)

2024-11-06 - esaruoho

Feature: added the AKWF waveforms to Paketti at +2 pitch and -35 finetune - there’s loaders now that incorporate the default XRNI Instrument in the mix: a random file will be selected, with the correct pitch and finetune, and loop mode enabled. and you can stack them, i.e. load a max of 12 samples in and the volume will be reduced so it does not clip. same with “random 1…12” or just random 1. let me know if you need more changes and tweaks.

2024-11-06 - esaruoho

Feature: Sample Offset (dialog and shortcuts) requested on https://forum.renoise.com/t/gain-offset-in-sample-editor/74279/

2024-11-09 - esaruoho

Improvement: Paketti Gater had a bug where it would touch the notes and instruments i.e. if you had a 16 step gater, the first 16 steps would be repeated with notes. this no longer happens.

2024-11-09 - esaruoho

Improvement: Paketti Load Devices shortcuts + midimappings were no longer read when renoise was started - they are now read and applied. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/paketti/issues/679)

2024-11-09 - esaruoho

Improvement: I lately modified the Capture Nearest Instrument and Octave so that it would jump, on second run, to sample editor, on third run to pattern editor+automation and on fourth run to pattern editor + track dsp (this in case the nearest instrument is already selected). i’ve now made two flavors, one that jumps around like that and one that doesn’t

Improvement: ChordsPlus has now been added as menu entries like this:

2024-12-29 - esaruoho

Improvement: Paketti Timestretch Dialog now makes it possible to have AHDSR envelope for clipping the sounds really quickly (fast gate).. has controls for changing to sample editor for better wave display visibility, or modulation mappings to see the pitch settings and the pitch envelope has default Release and Scale for Release for the AHDSR sliders protection against going below C-0 and higher than B-9, no errors there anymore. various Reversed checkbox fixes

2024-12-30 - esaruoho

Improvement: Paketti Timestretch Dialog now correctly shows the millisecond/second value of the Release slider checks whether the instrument has been pakettified or not (i.e. ahdsr envelope release will not work), and suggests to run Pakettify on the sample. has a Pakettify button that makes an identical copy, but with instrument macros. which correctly sets the instrument valuebox in the interface to the new, Pakettified, instrument. no longer errors out if there’s over LPB32 (such as LPB56). correctly sets a 64 row pattern to 256 rows in order to print in the sampleoffset numbers. sets forward loop mode ON when enabling AHDSR, sets it off when disabling AHDSR.

2024-12-30 - esaruoho

Improvement: Paketti Timestretch Dialog will now write BPM+LPB to Master track.

2025-01-05 - esaruoho

Improvement: Chordsplus shortcuts now match the basenote velocity column volume amount (

2025-01-05 - esaruoho

2025-01-05 - esaruoho

Improvement: some additional tweaks to menu entries and better organization

2025-01-06 - esaruoho

2025-01-07 - esaruoho

Feature: Normalize Slices Independently (apparently this was a feature in Propellerheads ReCycle - aka Normalize Each Slice) Before:

After:

2025-01-08 - esaruoho

Improvement: Paketti KeyBindings dialog now has a dropdown menu for sorting, much like the Renoise KeyBindings dialog. Renoise KeyBindings dialog now properly sorts the subcategories together (so “all Edit subcategories are together” etc instead of all over the place)

2025-01-08 - esaruoho

Improvement: Due to all the above KeyBindings fixes, noticed a bunch of “Paketti..:” format keybindings, tweaked them so they’re Paketti: instead.

2025-01-08 - esaruoho

Improvement: Sorting of Paketti + Renoise KeyBindings fixed (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/paketti/issues/763, https://github.com/esaruoho/paketti/issues/760)

2025-01-09 - esaruoho

Improvement: slowly renaming everything related to Coluga to YTDLP since that’s what it is and that’s how people are going to understand what it is and what it does

2025-01-09 - esaruoho

Feature: PitchStep Hard Detune, this creates 16 steps of PitchStep content, ranging between -0.05 to +0.05

2025-01-09 - esaruoho

Improvement: Added the same above (but 64 steps of PitchStep with -0.05 to +0.05 to Unison Generator, meaning: after creating an unison generator sound, a random pitchstep of 64 step length is added for further detuning

2025-01-10 - esaruoho

Improvement: I’ve added “Send Selected Sample” to the Main Menu Entries and finally introduced the separator for better readability in the sample editor

2025-01-11 - esaruoho

Improvement: Saw this request for “Menu Entry for Randomize Device Parameters in Mixer” at here so here it is:

2025-01-12 - esaruoho

Improvement: The “Sample NOW and F3” shortcuts have been renamed to Start Sampling and Sample Editor (Record) What this does: simple shortcut starts the sample recorder, and starts sampling. same shortcut stops the sample recording. after the sample has finished being saved and made available to Renoise, the Sample Editor is displayed.

2025-01-12 - esaruoho

Improvement: Added the above feature to Pattern Editor, Sample Editor, Instrument Box & Mixer, and it now has Autoseek set to On.

2025-01-12 - esaruoho

Removal: I have commented away the “Select Next / Previous ReWire channel” or ReWire features. if you want them back, please ping me.

2025-01-12 - esaruoho

Improvement: The Contour Shuttle Record Prototype has been renamed and is no longer considered a prototype. this is now called Contour Shuttle Record On/Off. all it does is display the Sample Recorder dialog, start sampling.. and if you run it again, it stops sampling. no extras.

2025-01-12 - esaruoho

Improvement: Contour Shuttle Record On/Off now sets Autoseek+Autofade to True. same for Start Sampling and Sample Editor.

2025-01-12 - esaruoho

Improvement: Contour Shuttle Record Off, Follow On, Record On, Follow Off shortcuts have been clarified. this is not a sample recorder feature. so the names have been changed too.

2025-01-12 - esaruoho

Feature: Record & Follow Flip. this shortcut + menu entry will enable Editmode. but disable follow pattern. if you run it again with editmode on, then it disables editmode, but enables follow pattern. so one shortcut will let you follow, until you’re ready to quit following and instead edit. same for midimapping button.

2025-01-13 - esaruoho

Improvement: Added “Set Track Volume Level (L00)” as a MidiMapping too

2025-01-13 - esaruoho

2025-01-14 - esaruoho

Improvement: I’ve resurrected the “Record to Current Track+Plus” feature and renamed it as Paketti Overdub . this allows, while Sample Recorder is set to these settings: (sync start stop: Pattern, Create a new instrument set to OFF) for recording max 12 new instruments per track, and auto-inputs the instrument at c-4 note and with 0G01 (glide) meaning you can record say 30 minutes of pads, and then have it play in your 16-64 row pattern (or any size pattern) and right at the end, restart the playback from the beginning. i.e. flawless loops. i’ve got two more improvements for this on my todo-list, after which it’s video-time.

2025-01-15 - esaruoho

Improvement: Overdub now has a 12 note column per track and 1 note column per track flavor. so one instrument per track, or 12 instruments per track. (Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/paketti/issues/769)

2025-01-15 - esaruoho

Improvement: Overdub now returns cursor focus to middle frame so that you can reverse or normalize what you recorded and also cuts the sample by 3500frames so that it definitely loops

2025-01-16 - esaruoho

Feature: Tempo Calculator for IT2/ST3/Schism etc stuff

2025-01-17 - esaruoho

More work on Overdub including bugreports to Renoise devs - they’re looking at the bugs

2025-01-18 - esaruoho

Feature: Nudge Delay Output Delay +1ms -1ms and set to 0ms - shortcuts, menu entries and midimapping

Improvement: +05 -05 +10 -10 as menu entries, keybindings

2025-01-19 - esaruoho

Improvements: Retitled some Midi Mappings for easier discoverability: these focus on being able to clear or wipe a specific column, track, selected track below, or all tracks below current row

2025-01-20 - Feature: Step by EditStep (Forwards / Backwards)

https://forum.renoise.com/t/editstep-jumping/75076/2

2025-01-20 - Improvement: Unison Generator fixes.

if you used the Unison Generator on a sample that’s already been Unison Generator’d up, the panning was all wrong (not center, 50L, 50R, 50L, 50R, 50L, 50R, 50L - instead, all over the place)
If you Unison Generator a Unison Generator’d sample, the naming used to go wrong. (think New Sample 02 (Unison 7 [-2] (50R)) (Unison 7 [-2] (50L)) (Unison 7 [7] (50L)) etc and other such mess) - now, no longer. Fixes https://github.com/esaruoho/paketti/issues/748

2025-01-20 - esaruoho

Improvement: Pakettify Current Instrument now correctly assigns the pakettified instrument to FX01 samplechain instead of keeping it unassigned.

2025-01-21 - esaruoho

Feature: Note Switch Dialog this shows the notes in a dialog, and lets you select the instrument. meaning if you have 100 E-4 notes at instrument 3 and want to change them all to instrument 5, now you can. Closes https://github.com/esaruoho/paketti/issues/363

2025-01-22 - esaruoho

Improvement: Finally!! I’ve figured out the difference between Windows and macOS/Linux when it comes to Loading Paketti Presets. Windows now properly loads them when loading with “Paketti PitchBend Multiple Sample Loader” or “Paketti PitchBend DrumKit Loader”.

2025-01-22 - esaruoho

Improvement: In light of the above - I’ve removed all of the custom code + user-definable XRNI preset code from Paketti Preferences. since load_instrument doesn’t work in the same way with windows / macOS - and nobody has volunteered any details of what kinds of 3rd party .XRNI instruments they use for this – let’s just keep it in a functional state by defaulting to the Paketti specified XRNI templates.

2025-01-23 - esaruoho

Feature: Select Sample x[Knob] will now kick you to the sample editor, and show you the sample you’ve selected. same for Select Sample Next & Select Sample Previous (both midi mappings and shortcuts).

2025-02-16 - esaruoho

Improvement: Fixed 12st_Pitchbend.xrni so that it uses * instead of + for AHDSR device, for less buggy / blaring Envelopes.

2025-02-16 - esaruoho

Am going through a ChangesLog I was maintaining and realized I’ve neglected to mention bunches of things I’ve done last year. Here’s a catchup:

Feature: Set Quantization to 01…32 (Global, Pattern Editor, Phrase Editor)

Feature: XLN Audio XO opener - checks where XO is in the track, VST,VST3,AudioUnit - if it is found, opens the External Editor. If not, loads it to a new instrument and opens. If already showing external editor, closes it. Reason for being? because you can alt-drag a selected drum into renoise (!!!) and load it.

Improvement: If “Replicate at Cursor All Above Current Track”, and you’re on the first row, then it defaults to repeating that low.

2025-02-16 - esaruoho

Continuing with the “Didn’t I talk to anyone about this??” changeslog: The Paketti Stacker. This loads a sample, then lets you divide it mathematically into slices, then stacks them into a new instrument with velocity controlling which slice is played, then you can output a rising ramp (first to last), downwards ramp (last to first), then random ramp (any hit).

To make this more sensible, I’ve added “Expand + Flood Fill” & “Shrink + Flood Fill”, Pitch Stepper controls (-24, -12, 0, +12, +24), and Instrument Pitching, Loop Modes to the Dialog.

This enables you to scretch valid loops into little pieces and have them tick tick tick tick through the pattern. Give it a try.

2025-02-16 - esaruoho

Feature: Set All Instruments All Samples Autoseek Off / On This queries all the Instruments - and sets all samples in each Instrument Autoseek state On or Off.

Unfortunately the addition of rex2decoder_mac, rex2decoder_win.exe, REX Shared Library.bundle, REX Shared Library.dll, REX Shared Library.lib adds a total of 16.5mb to the size of the tool, meaning that I can no longer ship to the Renoise Tool forum due to it’s size limitations. There are certain .RX2 files that still refuse to render, possibly due to volume issues in the .RX2 settings, but please get in touch if you have a .RX2 that should work but doesn’t, mail it to me via Discord or send via wetransfer to my email. Thanks!

Instead, 0.0dB volume and Center Pan. .PTI Export will name the .PTI instrument name as filename-you-save-it-as (so 002_try.pti instead of originalsamplename) Both .PTI and .RX2->.PTI Export will now correctly set to Beat Slice instead of 1-Shot.

No longer tries to hit over Renoise limits (B-9 note), fixed.

2025-06-26 - Feature: Delete Slices in Selection

2025-06-27 - Improvement: Paketti Stacker

Added “Auto Stack from Pattern” - this means, if you’ve used slices to create sequences, and suddenly want to transpose the slices, you can turn them from Slices into a Stacked instrument, and the selected track will be duplicated but written with velocity stacking.

2025-07-02 - Improvement: Paketti Steppers Dialog can now globally change all the Steppers to 256, or any other size.

under the radar stuff (forthcoming, still under works)

Feature: AKAI Import

This is a bit of a complex deal with S900 S3000 S6000 MPCLive etc formats and PGM SND S P AKP formats, i had something working but have hidden it for now until i can figure out the best logic for this.

Feature: Polyend Buddy

This lets you set up a Polyend Tracker path, which, when Refreshed, and the Polyend Tracker is in USB Storage mode, will populate two dropdown menus - one with .PTI instruments listed, one with .WAV files listed. Then you can load a .WAV file or a .PTI file directly. There’s also a Save .PTI and Save .WAV which will allow you to save files directly to the Polyend Tracker device. And detection on whether the user-set path is available or not, and then a recommendation to reconnect. There’s also a protection for when “Load PTI” or “Load WAV” would fail - i.e., before starting the loading process, verify that the path to the Polyend USB Storage Mode is still valid, if not valid, then show an error in dialog + statusbar. Also added .RX2 -> .PTI export. There’s also an Open Path to open .PTI dropdown selected instrument path, and Open Path to open .WAV dropdown selected sample path from Polyend Tracker path. and Open Path for Polyend Root Folder. And a Backup that copies all the files from the Polyend Root Folder (and all subfolders + hidden files too) to a user-specified folder. And a Browse bar for Computer PTI - with Dump button so selected PTI gets dumped from Computer to Polyend, and Analyze for Polyend Tracker PTI and Computer PTI selected files. and Dump to Device which lets you select any PTI from your computer (file browse dialog) and save it anywhere on the Polyend. And a Drumkit (mono) / (stereo) maker that takes 48 samples, sets bitdepth, samplerate and channel to same, merges the files together and outputs a PTI with 48 slices each triggering one of the 48 drums.

Refresh Dropdown Menus when Save WAV, Save PTI, Dump to Device, etc - basically in all sample saving situations, you should refresh the dropdown menus Improved the Save to SaveFolder (WAV + PTI) so Statusbar shows where it was saved and what was saved Fix the Sorting of Dropdownmenus so “FromRenoise” and “fromRenoise” are shown close to eachother instead of “capital letters first, then lowercase letters” sorting which looks like a bug
