hi, here are two import hooks.
One is for .REX - the legacy ReCycle format (no, not .RX2). We used to have this made by @mxb working on v2.8 - but it did not remove the headers before the slices, leading to manual work.
One is for .PTI - the Polyend Tracker Instrument format.
You can download this tool in it’s current form from
These two Import hooks are also a part of Paketti ( Paketti | Renoise ), fully integrated into the mix.
v1.03
Support for Loopmode detection (off, forward, reverse, pingpong)
PTIBreaks are now opened properly, i.e. if a wavefile has 50% audio and 50% silence - then the audio is clipped to half, and slices recalculated to match the actual wavefile content.
Wavetable support - will detect what the wavetable position + window is, assign 00-7F volume for that, and also extract every single other wavetable into the instrument, but muted (Keymapping 00 Velocity) + retains the original full-length sample too.
Cool, haven’t installed it yet, so don’t know all the options, but besides importing polyend tracker instruments, can it also export sliced renoise instruments to the polyend instrument format?
and this is for import only currently. i guess there might be a way of taking a sliced renoise instrument and dumping it to polyend…
but for that, i need to borrow a polyend tracker from a mate and have a bit of time.
i guess it’d be an interesting challenge. … i guess. i’ll think about it. if i start scripting it now without having access to polyend tracker, i’m working in the dark.
and i’ve just updated it to v1.02 - now it loads rex and pti properly without erroring out, and includes the 12st_pitchbend.xrni instrument, too, so the macros etc are there by default.
the only finetuning required is that it says “pti loading failed” on the statusbar, even though it succeeded. i’ll look at that a bit later.
@Jalex sure. ReCycle v2.5.1 is free, macOS, Windows. this script I’ve posted imports legacy .REX format (not .RX2) even with Linux.
anyway,
added support for detecting Loop Forward, Loop Backward (Reverse) and Loop PingPong for PTI - now i just need to extract it into the tool out of Paketti.
i didnt find anything, it is just a zip contains informations, projects saved to .ncs files, maybe its coded or custom. anything else is json as i see or wave files. This pack can be saved from Novation Components with a google account , for free.
i upload you one original: [TOKiMONSTA.circuitrhythmpack.zip]
Components used without the .zip extension, like this TOKiMONSTA.circuitrhythmpack
i try to get novation for help but they didiont answer anything about a year now… i think i didint reach the right doors or person…
you can collab with polyend. they working on mod and Impulse tracker exporter on the machine itself. so polyend users can load projects to renoise directly…
ok i’m working on a new version of this (the code is already working in Paketti, just need to isolate it into PakettiPTIREX.
there we go.

If you come across .PTI files that don’t seem to work, or if you have a .PTI file that has a stereo wavefile, please shoot them my way.
Am working on RX2 import. It will be Windows and macOS only. There is no SDK for Linux yet. I did get macOS import running. Wild. Gotta get it foolproof first before pushing out a release.
