Good timing indeed & also a very good way to get more comfortable with the software, again. Welcome & have fun with this one!
I may try to get in on this. Literally just registered a few days back and picking up where I left off a couple years ago messing around with the demo. Good timing I guess…
It’s just the name of an instrument that is used in the track.
Emre_k (Vorpalsound) made it and i just added a couple of macros and features.
This Vorpal Neuro Hack kills my CPU completely on my ThinkPad Laptop. Renoise even stops the Audio engine. Cool track though …
My desktop has no problem handling it, but if you set all the filters to 0 or 2x oversampling in the track it will probably run a lot better on a laptop too, without sounding very different.
Finally there’s a compo where I can actually make the deadline and submit an entry, I always stumble upon these things too late. I almost did now too until I realised it was extended and I managed to bang out something in time for consideration that did not suck. Bigup to El°HYM for the comp! =D
So I present you my submission composed with the default Renoise 3.1 resources.:
I hope you guys like it, and it was hella fun to work with a limited palette and did wonders for brushing up on sampleoffset and finetuning skills. =) The tune has a nod and a wink to the breakbeat rave of the 90’s as well as some big headbang to the big-beat of the 00’s. With a few dottet sprinkles of punk and laissez-faire here and there.
Good luck to everyone and I hope there are more entries coming in the days until deadline!
