I am just getting to know it, and I don't really have any idea yet how far one could go with it (though Renoise has a scripting language, I don't know if that is part of Redux or not at this point). The reason I'm posting it here is because Redux is a rather different, fast, and (at least to me) surprisingly powerful sampler. But in this case, you aren't you can sequence as you normally would in your DAW and practically ignore the tracker part of Redux if you like (though you'd miss some quirky possibilities that way). To me, tracker-sequencer part of Renoise/Redux would be unacceptably limiting if you were stuck using it for all of your sequencing needs (editing rhythmically free and complex polyphony in a tracker would be a tedious exercise in frustration, for example). The tracker part of it is a bit strange to me, but I can already see that the different paradigm will spur some new creative ideas and directions. There aren't really tracks with instruments assigned to them tracks and instruments aren't the conceptual paradigm here. There aren't really "tics" between the steps (though individual events can be offset from the step). As for the sequencer-ish part of it (tracker "Phrases"), time flows vertically, in steps, and events are placed in columns instead of tracks, with all events in the same row happening at the same time/step. Yes, Renoise is a "tracker," which is a rather foreign entity to most of us piano-roll, notation, and/or step sequencer users. I would welcome input from anyone who knows it better. I just got it, so the following are just some first impressions, not a review. Redux is an AU/VST that runs inside your host sequencer, bringing lots of the features and workflow from Renoise into your DAW. Head over here to find out more.I just bought Renoise Redux. The Single Hits Pack of the Yamaha Hybrid Kit is available exclusively from the Drumdrops store and is FREE.
