sending MIDI input to an effect plugin

Hi,

is it possible to send midi input to an effect plugin? I have a vocoder plugin with an inbuilt carrier but I con’t make it work in renoise due to the fact it requires MIDI input.

Go to an empty instrument. Go to the plugin tab. Where you would choose which VSTi you want to load - you also can choose a category “VST Plugin Alias” (its right up at the top of the plugin list for me), inside should be a link to your vocoder plugin. Use the instrument to MIDI Control the aliased effect plugin. Further MIDI control/automation than notes can be done via the “inst.MIDI control” device, linked to that alias instrument.
