That’s actually a good idea, actually getting tired of having to wait 30 seconds for Renoise to hang while it resaves the entirety of the .xrns every time I hit ctrl s. If you’re using large .xrni’s, this gets old really fast. There’s a reason all the “Pro DAWS” do it that way. As long as Renoise had a tiny sample cap, it was ok-ish, because it was “just a tracker”. Since now they’re really pushing the sampler aspect of Renoise though, and the sample cap is thousands instead of 256, I really think it’s time this concept was revisited.

oh no,
that was a bad idea!

i love how it works with just one file - thats great great for me.

It works great as long as your .xrns is realllllly small. If your .xrns grows to 1 gb or more it’s a huge pain in the ass.

.xrns - whole project

.xrnn - only “note data”, only the xml stuff

.xrnd - only sample data in one file

.xrnl - interchange with .xrnd, but just containing local links to samples

.xrnn and .xrnd/.xrnl go hand in hand, and can be merged to an .xrns for transfer or backup.

This ought to be a good idea. But is probably deemed “bad” by many people. It might be more efficient, but complicates stuff up to a point where newbies would “leave this daw™” because they just don’t get it, or spam the forums with hate mails because they lost their work as they’ve backuped the wrong format.

But wanna Wollmilchsau?

Replace all the demo tracks with fart songs.

Ditch the personalised installers and use iLok.

Great suggestion, looking forward to it. Will probably kill myself. :stuck_out_tongue:

“Buy Refurbished Kitchens Online!” Spamming popups every third minute using Renoise. Opens up a new instance of your internet browser that gives you great deals on used kitchens. Has to be terminated in Task Manager in Administrator mode. The whole process takes just about 3 minutes.

Export, exports an image of the wav.

and the Render - rendering the track as a 3D scene with different depth options.
so you can print the track and wear it on your neck or put it on a shelf.

immediatly fix the problem of physical format needs.

Reason style patch cables for the mix view

( good bad idea?!?)

Ultimate bad idea: discontinued Renoise.

include spyware :wink:

  • a gobbler subscription model and taktik doing weekly promo’s dressed up as steven slate

  • shitloads of DC on the master and claim it as a cure for users fighting loudness war

  • nibbles? nah n64 emulator with inifinite superman64 ‘fly through rings’ level

  • NaN’s on output every hour of renoise being active

  • color scheme changing on every tick

  • add another language that you can use to tweak the functionality of renoise bigly with fast speed

  • add another layer of patterns so you will save time doing patterns and managing and more easy

  • bring back accordion

  • color scheme changing on every tick with subsample accuracy

Cortana integration. Let Cortana suggest sample ideas that have f*ck all relevance to the project you’re currently working on.

Preview samples as emoticons because sometimes you need to know the feels.

“Like +1” your samples which are automatically shared with all your social media stalkers on Facebook / Twitter so they can use them in their tunes too.

Oldskool Renoise theme. It defaults to 320x200 resolution with 256 colors and uses a dos extender.

@Hexen: brilliant!
