I got my Ableton & Renoise setup working rather well with Rewire VST. It was definitely worth the 25 USD for me.
The only problem is that Rewire VST doesn’t support Apple Silicon. I’m running my Ableton & Renoise in Intel mode, and so far everything has been working smoothly.
Anyway, it would be just awesome to get Renoise to run as a VST plugin. I sincerely think that it would open the tracking possibilities to much wider audience.
It would also solve very nicely the audio recording problem. Now it’s difficult to record vocals to Renoise track. If you could simply load Renoise into a DAW as a VST plugin (with tempo/position sync á la Rewire), you could very easily do the vocals or other audio recordings.
Fruity Loops showed us that this is definitely a doable approach.
