oldschool 4 tracks (to begin with anyway, I usually end up with about 12 lol)
128 lines
8 lines per beat 140BPM (yeah, im a dubstep producer now hehe)
pattern sequencer from 0 to 64
pattern line highlight (or whatever it’s called) set to 8 lines, 4 to me just makes it look messy imo.
Very good question!
8 tracks because of the 8 buttons of my Nocturn (not yet mapped)
64 lines
I had written “Bass”, “Lead”, “Loop”, “Kick”… Even in the instrument section… Each with eq preselected but bypassed…
Start a new song. Set it up however you like, with your favourite master devices/plugins, commonly used samples and instruments, MIDI mappings, pattern length, tempo, LPB, etc. Now go to the Song Settings tab and save it as your template song. Now whenever you start a new song, it will instantly be ready to rock!
Hmmm…my template? I guess it’d be my desktop shortcut to start renoise, really. Actually, I use RocketDock and it’s in there in one of those fan-out menus that I have listing my audio apps. So I guess my real answer is RocketDock is my template.
I have no default song, but I have saved some templates which can help creating a song of a specific genre. For example, I have a song which loads an entire orchestra divided into several EWQL-PLAY VST instances, one for instruments kind (strings, brasses, percussions, and so on), pre-named tracks and instruments with aliases already set.
