How to record Macros' midi data in seperate FX Columns?

Is there a way to make Renoise record each Macro into an individual FX Column? Or record the midi straight to the appropriate automation lane?


A bit more in depth:
I have a sample instrument with a couple of macros assigned to it. The Instr. Macros meta device is midi mapped to my hardware controller. So far, so good. But when I record the automation it writes all of the midi data in the same FX Column in the Editor. Which makes it a pain to edit.

I know can record each parameter in a separate FX column if I record them one by one. But that rather ruins the performance aspect of it for me.

I’ve tried @Ledger Automation Single Slider. Which is great but also only gives me a single parameter to work with. But maybe I’m doing it wrong?

Renoise will accumulate the parameters recorded in the first FX column as much as possible.

But it is possible to create a LUA tool that separates all the parameters in the 8 FX columns of a note track, with a single action. The procedure would be:

  1. You record all the data without stopping.
  2. When done, run the tool, as a single later step.
  3. Ready!

If you want to register in the automation editor, turn on the third bottom switch of the pattern editor.

Thank you Raul! I’ve seen those little icons at the bottom of the edit page before. But somehow never considered them to be buttons. :grimacing:

I’m sure a LUA sorting tool would work, yes. As I have zero programming experience I am very glad that toggle to record to the automation lane feature exists. :sweat_smile:

Thanks again for your help!
