Use the wave as if it were a bubble gum!

This should leave you all freaking out! :open_mouth: :open_mouth: :open_mouth: :open_mouth:

At last we are going to have flexible control of the sample wave. It’s really a shame this isn’t built hunder the Renoise hood. Real atrocities can be achieved with all these controls.

I’ve finally reached the end of the road (a lot of work and a lot of testing to fine tune.). SMC is great guys!

Some of yourselves have sent me private messages interested in this tool and the news. Thank you very much for your interest! I’m sorry I couldn’t address it sooner. But it will be here soon.

The new features are already detailed in the user guide. It remains to add a demo song that teaches the control of the slices among other things. The new programming is practically finished and fine. I am very happy to have made it this far.

For those who do not know the history of the SMC tool. Part of the development had to stop at version 1, because Renoise had some internal problem with slices (the tool could return errors or it just couldn’t work properly). With the new update of Renoise 3.2.2 I have been able to advance to reach the end, which allows linking a panel to the instrument and at the same time to the sample as well. In this way, it is possible to anchor more than one panel to the same instrument and distribute the 8 macros. This allows for a much more extensive combination of controls from different panels.

I hugely announce that the new version 2.0 of Sample Multi Controller as just published! Read the first comment for more information. To know all the news, display the list of the new version in “Update History”.

To update the tool to the latest version for all those users who have their Personalized Use License of Full Version, please follow this steps:

  1. Uninstall the old version of SMC.
  2. Install the latest version of SMC.
  3. Reinstall your Personalized Use License.

Other considerations:

  • Remember to backup your custom songs and config files, before reinstalling the tool, so you do not lose them.
  • For the rest of users, they can try the free Demo Version.

Sampe Multi Controller 2.0 includes some corrections and improvements. This is a major heavy update. The User Guide has also updated.

The main feature is the support of the sample slices. This also makes it possible to use multiple instances on the same instrument when the sample has slices. In addition, this new version includes other capabilities and improvements. It is highly recommended to update it.

Please, if in doubt, take a look at the user guide. There are many novelties there…

If you are interested in the Full Version of SMC and in supporting the developer, get your Personalized Use License!

Thanks for the support and enjoy it!

Special thanks to @Neuro_No_Neuro for all their help and efforts!

Go crazy controlling the slices!!!

Thanks to @Raul for making this beast of a sample manipulator! It’s really something great :smiley:

Can the actual start point of a sample be changed or is it just the start point of the loop?

Just for clarification, SMC 2.0 is fully compatible with Renoise 3.3. As the Renoise API will not change substantially in the future, SMC will continue to be supported without any problem.

I’m sorry to answer so late. I didn’t really see this message. You can control the start and end of the loop and also control up to 6 slices.

A slice serves to trigger the sample at a given point along the wavelength. So you have not only one, but up to 6.

No probs for lateness, thanks for response :smiley:

Some users have asked me privately how to “bridge” the tool. As is a common question, here is an animated screenshot that shows the basic steps to do it:
1
Once the tool is bridged, you can assign other routings to the 8 macros from the “Macros Routing” panel.

Hi,

I’m just starting using smc. I can load the doofer chain from the smc and when I turn the knobs on the doofer the smc tool responds.

But, the modulators, configured in the prebuild smc doofer chains, don’t have an output. When there is an lfo, which should modulate the doofer, it doesn’t even show the output bar moving up and down, it has no bar at all. Anyone knows what I’m doing wrong?

Thanks !

Have you seen the comment above that I just posted?! Here is an example with LFO

You have the LFO device “minimized”. Press the center button to maximize

X V → this

I’m not a total n00b, just a little maybe, but I know how to minimize and maxmize device. :slight_smile:

See below what I mean, no movement in the lfo, so the doofer is not modulated by the LFO.

lfo no output

When I add a LFO myself on another track I see the output bar move like I’m used to. This is what I expect.

lfo with output

You have to activate the LFO device. You have it in Bypass. Hit the V switch

X V → this V

  • X: Close
  • : minimize/maximize
  • V: Bypass/on (or Off/On)

You’re right, I was so overwhelmed by everything that I didn’t see this simple thing anymore. Thanks a lot mate :slight_smile:

i have slices automated, and know how to set it up.When I automate the slice movement, the first (mother) sample has to be selected, cool.

Can i also automate the pitch or panning per slice, seperately? So one tool for sample 01 and a tool for a separate slice beneath it? Or am I thinking the wrong way?

In short, is it possible to automate slice movent and pitch for a single slice at once? And how would I manage that best?

Thanks again, I don’t even feel bad for asking, this tool is really difficult to get my head around, but I really want to learn it. :slight_smile:
