Thanks to everyone for the feedback so far!
Is anyone using Renoise with MacOS Ventura or a MacBook Pro M2?
I’ve received a report of a setup on a MacBook Pro M2 running MacOS Ventura, where all tooltips and menus in Renoise are broken. It would be great to know if this is a common problem with MacOS Ventura or with the new MacBook Pro M2 machines.
A quick test here seems normal so far…
( Ignore the black rectangle in the center of the first screenshot, that’s just a stupid clumsy mistake by me fumbling with this damned annoying macOS image editor 
)

3 posts were split to a new topic: LoopMix VST3 crash, when loadied in songs/instruments in Renoise 3.4.3
A post was split to a new topic: Windows: Freeze/Crash when using dropdown menus in sandboxed Arturia VST2 plugins
I’ve tested Augmented Strings and Pigments 4 in Renoise 3.1.1 and 3.4.3 on Win10 pro and can confirm both VST2 and VST3 aren’t stable when using “Run all plugins in sandboxes”, I had one crash and else it’s difficult to clear the menu.
Out of curiosity why do you need to run in sandbox and do you still need it after Renoise 3.4.3? I had to run in sandbox before to get Soundtoys Effectrack to work better but that’s fixed in the latest beta.
Thanks for checking! Good to hear that this does not seem to be a common problem.

Thanks for taking a look at this. If there are also problems in VST3 the matter changes. I’m not sure if in VST3 dropdowns fail as well, so I suggest check it out.
We are supposed to use sandboxes because it allows Renoise to be more stable, if there is a problem with any plugin. But in this case it seems contradictory because when using the sandboxes thinking that it is more secure, it is in this environment when the plugin is more unstable due to the dropdown lists (in the case of Arturia plugins).
I know that Renoise + Windows 10/11 have “something special” about dropdown lists and window views. It’s kind of a touchy subject.
Yes same is happening with VST3 so don’t use Arturia plugins with the Sandbox feature on.
I don’t think we are supposed to use the Sandbox feature unless there’s an issue else I imagine it would be set by default, also Renoise got a bit sluggish when I had it on for a short period so I’d definitely have it off if possible.
The beta has now been released as a final/stable update in the Renoise Backstage. The Demo versions of Renoise and Redux have also been updated.
Thanks again for all the feedback!
If you’ve already downloaded the beta, you don’t need to download Renoise or Redux from the Backstage again. The final builds are identical to the beta builds.

Thank you so much for update!
thank you for the update! really nice to see small but irritating bugs i’ve encountered being addressed.
a bit sad that this is not fixed:
I assume it appears solved because it worked temporarily for the original poster but the issue still happens for windows users with multiple keyboard layouts, unfortunately.
thanks for all of your work taktik, i hope this one won’t escape you next time

Swish, will test the VST UI issues I had, cheers.
Sick, now the AIR Hybrid VST UI works normally again and the HW EW play VST does too after it suddenly started crashing last week.
Thank you!
Great work as always! Not really sure if this has anything to do with any of the changes made under the hood, but some of my plugins (primarily VST2, but some VST3), particularly those from what seem to be more niche developers, had always been somewhat sluggish opening their GUIs the first time in Renoise (regardless of settings in Renoise/Windows), but now initialize very quickly.
Always love to see a new Beta come out and all of the testing/support that springs into action.
Has the scanning for plugins been changed at all? Now that I installed the latest version there’s some weird behavior which Renoise hasn’t done before, it has crashed a few times when scanning for plugins (the whole program, once the screen went gray and waiting for it to recover never happened, and once it got stuck on a plugin forever with continous 75% cpu usage)
In addition to Renoise crashing at scan, some plugins which have never crashed crash at scanning, and when that happens, it sort of skips all the rest (or something) since there are plugins missing (they are not in the failed vst’s .db) which it might find on another scan. The previous version was rock solid.
Can you some one help me with how to run SysEx Librarian tool under new 3.4.3 ver of Renoise.
Can you make as integral part of program like was in Amiga and PC version of Octamed ? I really need tool SysEx editor build in the Renoise
In Redux the tooltips do not work for me on Ventura (Mac M1 native) in Logic Pro.
Also, it won’t load the GUI and has some incompatibility that causes the host to close the plugin anytime a menu is opened (which is on startup in Logic Pro)
If I trick it into loading the GUI by loading a preset, then it displays without borders or the usual Logic Pro header/footer on plugin GUIs and can’t be interacted with.
