I’ve been asked to create a midi file of a piano riff I wrote in Renoise, so that my mate can load it up in Logic and manipulate it (he uses Logic on his mac - for his sins!! LOL)… Now aside from going and getting a copy of Cubase just for that purpose (which I don’t want to do because Cubase is painfully slow to work with) I don’t suppose there’s an option of selecting the notes/chords in a single track and “right clicking” and being able to render to midi file or something like that is there? (I know Renoise can import a midi file accurately enough)
Otherwise its a long mission for me to create the midi file. Any advice would be great, cheers!!
you cannot directly export to .MID files (yes, you can only import them at the moment), but you can use a MIDI instrument (Instrument properties => MIDI Properties) and set the Renoise MIDI Output Device (Edit => Preferences => MIDI => Out Device) to a MIDI virtual cable such as Midiyoke, a nd you will be able to communicate with another MIDI-aware application by setting its MIDI input device to the same virtual cable
Martinal (a team member who has suspended his membership for an undetermined period of time because of personal reasons) was trying to perform such a task, but I have always thought he undervalued some big troubles he would have encountered.
at the moment there is no exact plan about this; all I can say is that we understand this would be a key feature.
