I would like to see alternative sources for Impulse Responses in the Convolver DSP device, beyond disk-only. Being able to select a sample/buffer from the samples list from all instruments would be a good start.
This would enable users to truly build and apply impulse responses directly from Renoise without having to go a 3rd party editor.
Example workflow: capture “essence” of modular analog signal path
Make impulse sample in Renoise, say, 100 samples at 1, the rest at 0. Just a big click.
Apply sample to track for 8 steps
Sample the click passing through modular patch
Select New Sample as IR to Convolver
Profit
The limits of convolution still apply (linear, time invariant systems… so not all modulations will be captured).
As for the method of Sample selection, I have no specific requirements for this, but I assume the following could help:
filtering samples in the pool by a search term
organizing samples in pool by instrument, Set, etc
Was looking for a way to quickly get the sample from Renoises sample editor into the native convolution dsp device today. Would love to right click the waveform in the sample editor & select copy and paste it into a convolver device, but afaik not possible right now?
That would be sweet. I right click the sample I want as an impulse in the samples list, select “save sample as” then I have a shortcut to my impulse library handy, so it’s pretty quick… But yeah, would be great to have the option right there without the rigamarole
hi guys. this exists in Paketti, thanks for @Jonas for the original request pointed at me.
and for @OopsIFly for the help with base64 encoding.
you are provided with shortcuts and menu entries. how it works is this:
right-click on a convolver device. you can Export the sample inside the convolver device to sample editor. a new instrument is created. the sample is exported into it. the sample editor is displayed. you can now edit your sample.
then you right-click on the sample, or the convolver device, and select “import selected sample to convolver”.
you can also go to any single sample, and go “import selected sample to convolver”.
