Re: [microsound] renoise



Yes, Reason is a "gaz-station" (we say it in france when a software is huge in terms of RAM and disk-space, don't know if it comes from english or not)

I see many defects in Reason (not really defects, but things you cant do), but it remains my main way to do my music, even if i prepare my samples with specialised pieces of software (soundforge or audacity).

I'm not really fond of reason, but i need to do tracks, it is really a urge, and reason is the easier way i've found so far. The easier doesn't mean the better, i know, but for the moment i need to do sounds that people can listen to. I know more or less how to use pd, but i still don't know how to make a pop song with pd...

Haha, this is a ridiculous large system though.

I know what you mean, I can do the same thing with my Korg MS2000, it has the same kind of oldschool sequencer as the 960 module from Moog (except for the skip/normal/stop modes) and in combination with the arpeggiator I can edit the arpeggiated sequence using the 'forward/reverse/alt1/alt2' modes from the sequencer and by changing the chords.

The way I discovered in Renoise works much better by the way..


Kind regards,

Arjen Schat.

Gosh, just when i thought my MS20 was quite complex!

what i meant is that you can change your arppeggios in Reason just by changing the notes you play live. Now you can really do it live. I don't know if it is as efficient as Renoise, I've been trying this software for only a week or so, and even if i use Reason a lot, I don't play live with it. But Renoise seems pretty cool.

This is not an arpeggiated sequence or something, I edit the sequence realtime. Check this video for a comparison with the Synthesizers.com Q960 module:

Well, I think you can do that kind of stuff live in Reason 4, using the RPG8 module... You just have to play your chords live, and it is appergiatted automatically.

I'm not sure if this is possible in 'normal' sequencers, but it works amazing in Renoise:

curious what kind of creative advantage/perspective this kind of sequencer might give over more modern sequencers, like ableton live or logic?

is their any reason to go down this route aside from an interest in its historical/gaming context? i know people like autechre and whatnot claim to use them... i think maybe venetian snares too... but i just don't see the advantage... it seems so archaic and unintuitive to me...

thoughts?
