Add buzz styled sequencing to Renoise

[XG2003]

Regarding Redux, even if it isn’t released yet and we don’t exactly know what it’ll be like.
What we do know is that it’s built for bringing some of the instrument, sampling and tracking features of Renoise into other DAWs within VST/AU plugin format.

The purpose of this as mentioned in announcement is to be “useful for everyone to try out the Renoise tracking workflow without leaving your favorite DAW, or for Renoise users to bring your Renoise way of composing into other DAWs.”

I’d rather see the devs put the time and energy into making Renoise into something that’ll make current Renoise users think:

“Now Renoise has everything I need, I don’t need to look at something else to be able to do . I’ll stick with just Renoise forever!”

AND the potential new Renoise users out there using some other DAW think:

“Wow, Renoise just got this feature now that made me unsure to try it out before. I’ll give it a shot now!”

I know there are different opinions whether the current 3.0 changes and new features are to be satisfied with or not. Depends on taste and personal preferences. But I think it’s more important to work on features within the DAW itself rather than creating a new tool to build some small bridges to other islands when we aldread have Rewire.
Is this just me?

No, it isn’t just you. I can’t see the point in the devs spending their time on Redux. If users of other DAWs want to use the functionality of Renoise, they should just use Renoise. Why, when we have samplers like Kontakt, have the devs spent so much time on trying to improve the instruments within Renoise? When the Pattern Matrix and the whole way you use the interface needs improvement?

@krixa

Ask ten users of any software what there top missing feature is and you will get ten different answers, so your is a major cop out

Evidence?

I bet if the devs had actually bothered to give registered users a VOTE, you wouldn’t have ‘ten different answers’, you’d have ten or twenty possible improvements, and one or two clear winners…

However, we were never asked, so we have every right to complain.

Redux vst for people looking to incorpoorate tracking in their daw = perfect
But the most important reason why the majority is not using renoise is because it’s a tracker .
I can’t see why all of a sudden they would go berserk when redux comes out , it was the tracker interface that kept them away in the first place .
The new instrument design might be appealing , but they have to learn to use the tracker interface for that …and were back at the beginning …

Precisely!
Why are people who don’t like or know about trackers, going to suddenly want to use Redux in their non-tracker DAW? Why? Anybody know why?

The answer is - they WON’T want to use it, and they won’t want to buy it. What can it possibly give them over, for example, a sampler VST, which will have better sounds and better control, than instruments created in Renoise 3?
