Renoise Tracker?

[nicholas]

It would be cool to use it side by side with Rewire/ Logic on My Mac recording setup.
It kind of defeats the purpose of using a tracker for me though since I want to use it
to get that distinct 8-bit paula sound to mix with my 24bit Logic sound.

I think midi syncing a real A1200 with my Mac is my only option for this.

A Paula VST would be interesting, perhaps the UADE code would be useful?

Or just MIDI sync to an instance of UAE on your Mac.

Ohh noo this is terrible, I think my days of OSS may be numbered. I just converted and old mod to .mod (protracker), swithced the time to BPM in OSS and saved. Brought it over to RN and it worked perfectly.

I had to manually set the LPB (lines per beat) to match the OSS setting. But that was easy.

My Athalon XP is one of the latter 32 bit CPUs and luckily supported SSE (an Intel specification) , I wonder if this has something to do with this success.

Then again I'm not trying to have full vocals and play guitar all stored in the mod file like did in OSS, well you could on Amiga! Who was going to stop me? :lol:

I have not pulled the trigger yet and bought it but, I may...

@spihunter Yep runs on Macs... with dual core it should be very workable.


Also just played some .mod files from an Amiga CU cdrom, an those played well too. It has some "Amiga/FT2" compatibility mode setting, that it switched on when it loaded these and my old mod.

You should install ASIO4ALL for best performance and stability.

I've always shunned trackers for "proper" sequencers, but you got me interested in Renoise so I downloaded the 64bit demo last night.

I'm impressed, very impressed! It's quite fun.
