hi

Luckily for you, someone already made a delay plug-in to recreate this exact sound:

In the effectrix vst There is an option to do this very easily
with the x-loop function.

Good luck!

thanx appreciate your help :yeah: :D

that trick is really hard to get sounding right.

essentially you can do it all in renoise by changing the line speed logarithimically with each hit and pattern line and using retrig.

i haven’t tried doing this yet, though it works in theory. :D

yes i would love to get it right in renoise,but i guess i need more time to figure it out excactly :panic:

i got alot of samples of this effect,but would rather learn to make it the right way :D

I guess it’s made by automating loop points. Which is unfortunately not possible in renoise

You need:

  1. A ball.
  2. The will to bounce it.

If we could write metadevices, I’d code an LFO that bounced… not that that would really help in regards to delays. I’ll stfu now.

My very quick attempt at doing it manually:

bpm automation/delay fx automation/delay column.

I wrote something about this in another thread, but what renoise needs is a “smooth tweak” option for the Ex retrig command, like they have in psycle. We can get a similar effect by using high enough bpm’s in conjunction with the Ex command.

Automated effect commands could also solve this… so many ways to solve one problem! Must be the chrismas spirit…

So that means billiards is gay?

Revelation! That must mean that the french game Boules is about being as gay as possible… or making the other players straight… :blink:
