Just a quick shout-out to @ffx for updating the hidden Native DSP effects for 3.3 - they are so useful!

heh thx, but the original was made by gova. I only tuned it for the new versions and added basic config.

Btw. if you are interested, I made far more interesting tools, which I personally use all the time. Those might be a bit difficult to understand by description 
I donāt know. Would like to have some feedback here from you, if it is clear to you, what these do:
you can jump thru send targets of a track with this, and also jump thru send sources, if you highlighted a send track. This saves my day in a project with a lot of sends, which usually make a Renoise song very cluttered and confusing.
This is something I use all the time. It allows you to ātransposeā aka increase / decrease any kind of value in the pattern. I use this for instrument number changes, volume changes, I move note-offs with this. Have the feeling that nobody else is using it 
This is only a collection of simple tools, but I use it for my regular master mono check, my block playing, and also to enable metronome/edit at once.
And of course this, because I like to record knob movements straight from plugin guis as in any other DAW.
Some of these are real spaghetti code, but it works afaik. Wanted to do a OO style framework for the Renoise API, but somehow I am never sure what for such an effort, if even some basics still are missing in Renoise. I think danoise already did something similar.

Iāll be sure to check these out - todayās gonna be kinda split up weird, but Iāll do my best! Thank you for sharing these 
@ffx Iām intrigued by the Unified Value Shift and Transpose Tool, but for some reason, Iām missing the menu items of where I think they should be. I have installed the plugin, itās showing up in the āTools Browserā, but I may be mis-interpreting the directions on the actual plugin page.
Iām going to explain now that Iāve got some brain damage from a few brain surgeries, and sometimes I donāt understand directions; would it be possible to share a few screen-shots of where I can find this tool? I think I remember this being a reason I had downloaded/given up on it before (in the past). I could not actually figure out how to use it. I try to use tuning on a variety of sampled tones, etc., and I end up doing a lot of it by hand.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
And thank you for sharing these with us -
Thanks for the feedback. Surely it does not have to do with any braindamage, but instead with my poor documentation.
The UVS tool AFAIK has no settings at all, it provides (badly readable) shortcuts in the shortcuts list:
Most important are āDecrease value under cursor by 1ā and āIncrease value under cursor by 1ā. I set those to ctrl + numpad plus / ctrl + numpad minus.
Now place the cursor on some notes of your pattern. If you have no selection in the pattern at all, it will affect only the note under the cursor, with a selection, only the ones within.
Some examples
Go to a track and select everything of it by pressing ALT+T. Make sure the cursor is on the note column. Now call the toolsā shortcut āā¦increase by 1ā. All notes within selection should now transposed by 1.
Move the cursor now onto the instrument number column and use the shortcut (inc by 1) again:
Move the cursor now onto the volume column, and do the same again:
And finally try the delay column (I left out panning, but should work, too):
Disable the selection now, set the cursor on the delay column of a single note, and use the shortcut āā¦decrease by 1ā this time 2x:
There are also a lot of other shortcuts, for example transpose note occurences. Letās say you have a sequence of repetitive notes, e.g. an ostinato, and now want to only transpose the C-4 to a C#4. Put the cursor onto the C-4 and use the shortcut.
Those āshuffleā shortcuts use the current step length you set and only then affect the rows within the step length.
Hope this helps somehowā¦ 
Should consider to name these in a better way.

Aha! Thank you -
I was expecting some sort of āpop-upā window to show up. That would be the easy way, what Iām used to, and why I couldnāt find it 
Dāoh! (imagine Homer Simpsonā¦)
Iāll give this a go - will be starting a new album eventually, and thereās certain things Iāve been wanting to do. One in particular is - detune the ENTIRE track or the actual application. Itās something I used to be able to do in Reason - you could detune the entire program by +/- 100 cents. Iām actually a bit surprised that itās not available here, would be very useful. So, Iām thinking that your tool, for now, would be a quick 'n easy way to detune lots of audio, instead of adjusting every instrumentās parameters. Weāll see.
Thank you so much for clarifying this - have you posted it also on your Toolās page? In case thereās other folks who might be like me and not able to figure it out.

I absolutely love this tool! One thing I noticed and Iām not sure this is intended behaviour:
If I use the +/-128 function on the note column it increases the note by one, same as the +/-1 function.
To transpose one octave you have ātranspose by inversionā, but this doesnāt work on the fx-columns. Ultimately this means that you need to map six commands instead of four to have ābigā note and fx changes.
IMO, +/- 128 should be +/-12 in the note column. Or is this just not possible with the way itās implemented?
In any case, thanks so much for your work, this is exactly what was missing from my Renoise workflow!
