How To Send Midi To My Synth And Record The Audio?

Help, Support & Bugs Beginners Questions - Renoise

Hi there,

I’ve got an analog synth which is capable of recieving MIDI information. What I need to do is play my MIDI keyboard and have those midi notes send to that synth, then, that synth produces audio which will be fed into the audio input on my audio interface. How can I achieve this in Renoise so that the audio will be recorded?

  • Device: The MIDI device which you would like to send MIDI to. Without setting up a device, no MIDI data can be transferred, so this is your first priority when creating a MIDI instrument.

  • Instrument Type: Specifies how Renoise should handle latency (the delay until the sound is audible): - ext. MIDI: The MIDI device is routed to an external synthesizer, which then produces its own sound. - Line-in Ret: The MIDI device is routed to an external synthesizer, but the audio signal is routed back to Renoise via a #Line-In Device.

  • Channel: The MIDI channel that will be used to trigger the MIDI device.

  • Bank: When set, this is the bank number you want to apply before the instrument is loaded with songs. When disabled, no bank change information will be sent to the device. The bank number is a 14-bit value, so you have to enter combined LSB and MSB values when needed.

  • Program: When set, this is the program number you want to apply before the instrument is loaded with songs. When disabled, no program change information will be sent to the device.

  • Basenote: Transpose playback by setting a different base note.

  • Delay: A custom manual latency that all events will be sent with. This is sometimes needed to get external devices properly synchronised.

  • Duration: When enabled (not INF), the MIDI instrument will behave as if it has a finite duration, like unlooped samples have. When disabled, Note OFFs must be explicitly sent and added in order to stop playing Note ONs. This can be especially useful while playing drum samples, since you no longer have to manually turn every single one off.

I’ve been trying to figure out how to do this for ages.
