I cannot emphasize this enough!! I would LOVE to be able to have a copy of Renoise running on a Pi (in my case, attached to my MIDI guitar, so that I could use my guitar as a standalone omnipotent sampler!)
MWAHAHAHA I can almost feel the Renoise Pi power!
Could you imagine, multiplexed Renoise Pi?! #dreams
I would be happyelatedenthused to beta test / build this from source
Count me in for an ARM64 build. It would be great to run Renoise natively on my Chromebook . I’d also pay for the extra license too.
Edit// when I say natively, I would still be happy with the Linux ARM64 build as I can use the Linux layer on the Chromebook, I’ve had good succes with Reaper, Waveform and LMMS ( Tho LMMS is quite an outdated build ).
Slightly off topic, but it would be great if Chrome OS wouldn’t have to be hacked so much to get things like audio and video to work on the Linux layer . And you have to jump through hoops just to try out a Linux distro from a live usb, possibly bricking the device.
I’m currently working on the Apple M1 port. Once this is done, it indeed would make sense to look into the ARM64 Linux port as well, as they are basically the same. Can’t promise anything here but definitely will give this a try.
Thanks for the pointer! If you really feel it’s a waste, I feel you underestimate to what extent this could blow the roof off renoise use cases. Renoise Eurorack, Renoise on Zynthian, Renoise handheld etc. Heck, I’d get a pi400 dedicated to Renoise for every one of my kids just for the fun of it.
I’m all for an ARM-based version of Renoise, but I wonder what the use case is for using Renoise on a Pi? Wouldn’t it just be a cheaper, less-powerful desktop experience, or are you thinking of using it in some more of a mobile application, like SunVox or LSDJ on steroids? I have always wanted to have Renoise on a small netbook or tablet to use in live performance situations, but if I’m honest, a full-powered laptop is plenty portable and can do everything I want. How would you use a Raspberry Pi version differently?
Just got a raspberry pi 400 to check Renoise on and have a long rabbit hole to go down in this weekend. Basically first time doing anything linux, so am struggling a bit finding a workflow. But love that almost everything you need is inside the small keyboard, will get the audio through hdmi and/or see if an usb soundcard works with it. Now first to get Renoise installed . It says it needs to be installed from root, but trying to paste the extracted tar inside, access is denied?
