I think it would make using renoise much easier in terms of navigation. My only real criticism of tracking is, that the tracks get out of control in terms of visuals VERY quickly. We NEED some sort of colour coding and grouping like this. It would be really really good to see this implemented.
Even if you dont get the ability to add an effect to a paricular group, I wouldnt mind. Just the visual side of this and the way it allows you to organise a track would be enough for me! Any extra actual control would just be a bonus
Good idea, I’d like to see the colour coding and stuff +8.
But… you can do something very similar with Send Channels already.
eg. I usually build the rhythm section on 3 or 4 tracks, and send them all in varying proportions to a compressor on a Send track. Then to control the vol of the whole drum section, just fade the send track up and down… innit.
I’m doing that stuff for some time already, i have all my drums in send channel where i can treat it as on a “bus” equalise, compress, send to another send channel if needed etc… if you divide your instruments into send channels you can mix much faster - in that case you’d only need to color send tracks, but usually there aren’t as many of them. Coloring of tracks sounds nice tho I support it
No, you misunderstood this. With show-stopper I meant something that is so broken that it makes the program useless. A crash, broken behaviour of an existing feature and so on.
This is not the last release. There are approx. 12732 features that could be done for Renoise. All of them are great to have, but if we start implementing more and more stuff, we never will be able to release something that was tested and tweaked in such a way that you could call it finished. Take a look a the alpha bugs forum to see how much effort is needed to get the current set of features complete and bug free.
New features introduce new questions, new finetuning and new bugs. If you never end adding features you never get something done.
Well I understand where both are comming from. Actually there is a lot that can be added to renoise, but I really don’t want all of it for this released. I’m really stoked and I’m also tired of clicking the “this version will expire, the full version won’t…” page. Just want to load up me sequencer and get on with it .
Wonder how long will it be until the next alpha’s of renoise 2.0 will be out?

It is all coming together nicely now and we all appreciate your extremely hard work to this (which is why most of us have paid for it, unlike all the other software we use!)
As a user, visible features are what gets me going, but I don’t undervalue the work that goes on under the bonnet.
Thanks for anything you can add, and ooops for the misunderstanding!
I will just use clever syntax for my track marking for the time being.
