0Y00 [MaYbe pattern effect with 00 -- mutually exclusive note columns]

  • Steps to reproduce
  1. Launch Renoise (3.0.beta3).
  2. Load an instrument as the instrument #00.
  3. Enable editor, add two additional note columns in the 1st track and enter something like:
C-4 00 .. E-4 00 .. G-4 00 .. Y00   
C-4 00 .. E-4 00 .. G-4 00 .. Y00   
C-4 00 .. E-4 00 .. G-4 00 .. Y00   
C-4 00 .. E-4 00 .. G-4 00 .. Y00   
  1. Click play.
  • Expected results:

Playing, at each line, one note: C-4 or E-4 or G-4 (randomly chosen; as described in http://www.renoise.com/release-notes/300 at the beginning of the “The Pattern Editor” section).

  • Actual results:

No sound.

  • Additional note:

The same problem is in the instrument phrases.

You also have to give each note a Yx maybe command that defines how likely it is to be chosen.

For example:

  
C-4 00 Y4 E-4 00 Y2 G-4 00 Y1 Y00   
C-4 00 Y4 E-4 00 Y2 G-4 00 Y1 Y00   
C-4 00 Y4 E-4 00 Y2 G-4 00 Y1 Y00   
C-4 00 Y4 E-4 00 Y2 G-4 00 Y1 Y00   

Ah, thanx for info, I should have seen the new “MaYbe Melodies” tutorial song first. Sorry.

can the Y00 be used in Phrases?

looks like no, but maybe i misunderstand (seems like phrase note columns are 1 column per “track”)

can the Y00 be used in Phrases?

Yes, no problem there. A phrase consists of note-columns, not tracks.

I made a little example:
