Retrig Sample Over Multiple Rows

Help, Support & Bugs Beginners Questions - Renoise

Am I missing something with the retrig command?

The behavior I expect, that I cannot seem to recreate is:

at speed 6

C-401 0E24
0E24
0E24
0E24
0E24
0E24
0E24
0E24

to trigger the sample every fourth tick over these eight rows, dropping the volume by 2 each time without triggering it at the beginning of each row. This is how I get a triplet effect.

or an example

at speed 6, trigger the sample every 1.5 beats.

C-401 0E09
0E09
0E09
0E09
0E09
0E09
0E09
0E09

what am I missing?

you have to specify the note. if you want to keep the reached volume level on the next row, remove the instrument number by using the DEL key when the cursor is on the instrument number

  
C-4 01 0E24  
C-4 -- 0E24  
C-4 -- 0E24  
C-4 -- 0E24

Even with that method, the only result I can seem to get resets the retrig period every row.

I want to trigger the sound at ticks:

0
4
8
12
16
20
24
etc…

but the only result I can seem to get is:
0
4
6
10
12
16
18
22
It plays the sample at the start of every row and retrigging 4 ticks from there rather than delaying it 2 ticks into the second row, 4 ticks into the 3rd row, then at the top of the 4th.

huh sorry, yes, this is the intended behaviour of the command.

when you have 6 ticks per row (F106), 0Ex4 does the following:

  
tick   
00 C-4  
01  
02  
03   
04 C-4  
05  
  
00 C-4  
01  
02  
03   
04 C-4  
05  
  
00 C-4  
01  
02  
03   
04 C-4  
05

what you want to achieve in your first example has to be done like this:

  
C-4 01 0E24  
C-4 -- 0D02  
C-4 -- 0E24  
C-4 -- 0D02  
C-4 -- 0E24  
C-4 -- 0D02

wow, that wasn’t really a beginner technique! Think this might be moved to tips and tricks?

the fact that i know what we’re talking about here, and why you said what you said It-alien, makes me realize that i am no longer a beginner :D
