Interesting.. How do vocals work in a tracker
environment?
What's the situation with plugins for renoise under Linux at the moment?
How does midi control work?

I'm currently in final stages of a CD project.
I started it in Renoise after hearing about it from Hitmuri (Freewheeling performer).
I enjoyed doing rhythm tracks and sequencing and playing with waveforms in Renoise and you
can do a lot from the computer keyboard. MIDI implementation is good.
However I did not like tracking vocals in Renoise so I exported all the tracks and
switched to Ardour.
Renoise is a vertical scrolling tracker with no visible waveforms in the main screen and I
am more comfortable tracking vocals with Ardour which scrolls horizontally with visible
waveforms so I can see all the parts coming up.
Then I felt guilty about getting a free ride on Ardour, after paying for Renoise, so I
made a donation to Ardour roughly equivalent to what I paid for Renoise.
Renoise is a great product with a great community with a great future.
Ardour is a great product with a great community and a great future.
Right now I'm sort of leaning toward Ardour coz it feels more organic and less bound
to beats and ticks, but I also really like the "tracker music" feel of the CD I
started in Renoise. Hopefully I can get final vocal tracks, mixing and mastering complete
by the end of the month and you can tell me if it works.
Oh, and I work in non-multiarch 64bit so I can't comment on plugins for Renoise. I was
quite happy with renoise' native sounds and FX and I'm enjoying exploring the
ladspa set in Ardour.
