Trackers and traditional sequencers have different interpretations of tracks and instruments. Also, because the pitch dimension of the piano roll is represented alphabetically, multiple tracks can be displayed side-by-side at the same time in Renoise. The benefit is that in a lot of situations, textual notes are faster to navigate and record than lanes of blocks. In a way, the Pattern Editor is like a more abstract piano roll, with the notes being represented textually instead of graphically. Just listen to cutting edge electronic artists such as Venetian Snares, Cristian Vogel or Enduser to hear what Renoise is capable of. Originally a tool for game programmers to efficiently add music to their games and later on becoming the de facto standard in the demo scene, the tracker within Renoise has evolved and expanded to an inspiring and hands-on alternative to the ubiquitous piano roll. This particular type of editor, the tracker, has a long history.
The Pattern Editor is the main attraction of the program. There are four full-screen tabs, each of which represents an editor. Renoise has no floating windows, each component stays where it belongs. The top right hand corner contains the instrument selector, and to the left of it we see the spectrogram and the phase meter. Renoise comes with a large set of built-in effects, but also supports VST, AU, DSSI and LADSPA plugins. On the bottom of the screen is the effects chain for the selected track. Constructing a beat just makes more sense when you can punch in the drum hits with a keyboard rather than clicking and dragging lines with a mouse. The Pattern Editor takes the best things about text editors and brings them into the audio world: they are perfect for precise, repeating operations. It displays notes and effect codes in a grid that can be navigated and controlled with the computer keyboard. To the right is the main editor, the Pattern Editor. These views are handy for navigating around in the song. The Pattern Matrix gives you a more detailed overview of the song and speeds up the workflow by letting you copy/paste blocks. The Pattern Sequencer works like a playlist for patterns. They are intended for viewing and arranging the song structure.
The Pattern Sequencer and the Pattern Matrix are shown in the left half of the central section in the screenshot above. Have you tried discussing your issue on renoise forum? I understand you want some kind of "pattern" buffer outside of song (like idea placeholder)? From what i know renoise doesnt support such thing by default, but you can use lets say first 4 sequences for that and when rendering song start from 5th pattern.The Pattern Sequencer, Pattern Matrix and Pattern Editor are probably the areas in which you will spend most of the time. Have things changed in the decade since 2013? In my opinion, this is highly annoying and unwanted. And if you have created 4 patterns, and ultimately use only three in your song, then the unused pattern can only be accessed if you change the pattern sequence (that is, the song) to include it somewhere after all. It seems you can only create new patterns if you add them to the pattern sequence first (that is, your song). I read the manual, searched online, but all I could find was a discussion from 2013, where another user brought the issue up and other participants didn't even seem to understand the issue. I can't seem to access patterns which aren't used in the pattern sequence, without modifying the sequence. I decided to try out the demo of Renoise, but one thing really irks me: It's probably just a matter of getting used to. Then I can edit pattern 1, but the song structure has been changed as well, so if I want to save the edits to pattern 1, but want to keep the original song, I must edit the sequence again to delete the fifth scene. It must be included in the song's sequence first: the song pattern sequence must change from to for example. Like pattern 1 in my previous post: I cannot access pattern 1 without assigning a scene to it. I'd like to be able to access and edit any pattern, including those that are not associated with any scene. If by 'scene' you mean an entry in the pattern sequence, then no. You can copy and paste the patterns into new scenes though, you could paste the part from the pattern you want in a new scene? Sorry, not sure what else to suggest, I know that feature very well. You're changing the 'scenes' with the arrows and can't access the pattern without changing everything? I almost never used that feature when I used renoise.
