Sometimes I’ll have an instrument selected in my instrument panel and I want to change it. I replace instrument OLD with instrument NEW. The problem is Renoise plays boths instruments on top of each other. What’s the proper way to replace so OLD is completely gone.
This behavior continues even if I hit delete instrument, refill the empty spot, and hit keys on my keyboard to listen. It still has the old instrument mixed with the new.
I suppose that your problem is:
If you load renoise instrument and then load vsti (or other way) you are stacking instruments (you can use some sample for adding attack to vsti instrument for example)…
So you have to delete samples / or vsti instrument if you wanna leave just one.
But the best way for me is this, you can undo anytime you want:
