Hi all, a few (unoriginal) ideas.
Previous sampler experience (Kontakt and E-MU X3)
A few things I think would not go amiss:
Automatic sample mapping with mapping options:
direct sampler to a pile of samples with some mapping information, then options if you want the distribution to be one shot, or stretched to fill in the gaps. i.e. 5 samples, marked sample c2, c3, d4, etc…, mapped to the correct key and options to distribute to the sample across the keyboard (c2 and c3 are stretched to meet somewhere in the middle).
Hardware Sampling:
Similar to the plugin grabber-but a hook to a midi output and audio capture.
Sample Conversion:
I don’t expect renoise to support more than XRNI, but it would be nice if some plausible formats could be natively converted to XRNI like SFZ, SF2, EXS - others? I think SFZ should be a priority.
Resynthesis:
Similar to what DiscoDsp and Harmless do, but with a renoise twist as I don’t really support the idea of a renoise synth, per se. Load up a sample, have an option to resynthesis across the keymap and convert to XRNI.
Well - there you go:)
