the tool works here in windows 11, in the shifter example that I can see in one of your screenshots it probably has to do with the fact that this particular process needs data in a textfile, through the arrowdown icon, if nothing is entered here which fits the syntax the process needs, no output will be produced.
I think the CDP tool should come with a disclaimer that these aren’t vst like effects that you can slap on a sound and it will just work after hitting process, some do (like a bunch of the distort processes, perhaps try these first?), but most need some reading up in the manual or text blurp in the tool window to understand what is needed. Then some processes might also not work because of a needed samplerate, bittype and or amount of channels of the sample in the sampleeditor. Processes that output multichannel also aren’t supported as this was never implemented and thus capped at 2 channels max. Then there can be a dependency of different settings, for example a set fft channel count can influence the max possible parameter ranges across a process. Hopefully in all error cases the terminal will give a hint for what needs to be changed. In other words, its not for beginners .
Luajit seems to have speed up processing time, not hindered the tool afaics.
Yeah on hindsight I think you are right it may just be a skill issue on my part, I’m not very experienced with cdp… I’ll continue experimenting. And yeah I did notice some reverbs didn’t work due to channel requirements, and I also did change the bitrate of a sample on one occasion which resulted in an output, so I can see what you mean.
Thanks a lot! At least I know it’s something I just need to learn and not simply dismiss as an error.
One of the error message that you’ve posted seem to stem from terminating a script after it has run too long? If a script takes a long time processing, Renoise will throw a pop up window asking you if you want to terminate the process, if you click ‘yes’ it will give the error from your picture. Next time try to be more patient, click no and see if this eventually gives a result. If it still takes to long, perhaps the source sample is already very long and you’ve set a pramater that multiplies the length with factor x , the renoise pop up is a safeguard to quit these kind of ‘mistakes’.
mmm yes yes, I’ll definitely try that next time I encounter that.
I must say now that I’m approaching it more analytically and actually reading the blurbs on the processes, it’s helping a lot lol. And being aware of the need for a text file etc for some processes also.
