splitting files for compression for fat32

the way to go would have been to use gparted to format to exfat
fat32 has a 4gb file limitation

// for rar
rar a -r -v3900m archive.rar /path/to/folder/

// for 7zip
7z a -v3900m archive.7z /path/to/folder/

// for zip
zip -r -s 3900m archive.zip /path/to/folder/

sunchop - a chopper for sunvox

sunchop on the sunvox forum eufex made this in pixilang. the demo vid said single sampler pitch mapping is broken but it does work for individual samples for each chop. (eggsem tool in renoise had the same problem) I prefer xrns2mod because then i can get then all self contained in one insturment.

The xrns2mod tool didn't work o. my other computer though so this is when it would come in handy.

best way to make drum kits in subvox

xrns2mod tool

running the cli version in a vm on windows actually is great.
The linux version kept saying my project was too new or something and the renoise tool version would render a blank xm.

My old method of building kits was to use openmpt to create xis out of sfzs made in renoise of groups of samples but the tuning would be off.

the eggsem tool to convert xrns to xm works at getting the pattern data and simple 1 shot insturments but it would mangle pitches on multisampled ones so the xrns2mod cli tool is my new go to method for now.

Deflemask chip tracking strategies

It lacks some important keyboard shortcuts i use all the time in Renoise because of this i've mostly used it as a sound module for ym2612 sounds sampling it and not dealing with the sequencer but i've figured out a few tricks recently to get around that.

no f9-f12 jump 1/4 way through or play from line and return. the play from line in Deflemask just keeps going from where you left off and play pattern always jumps to the start.

my work around is do each 16 ticks on its own channel and mute each one as i move 1/4 across.
this feels similar to using block loop in Renoise.

Another alternative is to use pattern break commands to jump to line zero. it reminds me of clipping in as you climb higher up a wall.

how to move nested wavs

Downloaded some samples that came packed into separate folders. This is annoying because there is only 1 wav in each folder making it a hassle to browse.

heres the fix:

mv -n */*.wav .

then to remove the folders

rmdir */

xm export from renoise

eggsemm

xrns2mod required something called bassmidi library which needed a license to run? tried and gave up this one actually worked for me but the pitches get screwed up in multi samples. still way better than nothing.

sunvox midi automations

in the cc column it starts at 80
so cc1 is actually 81 (also its in hex).

• 91 for reverb is db
• 74 brightness (cutoff)is ca
• 71 timbre (res) is c7

the interpolator tool can quickly create ramps for filter sweeps at a set interval like a tempo synced lfo

ringmod sidechaining easy and free

kilohearts compactor makes that nee ring mod side chaining technique easy

chopping samples in sunvox

Easily miss this setting because its hidden in the edit menu under misc as resample new length. set the number of lines to the end of your sample and it will adjust the pitch to play out to that length.

Then you can use the 7 effect to chop on offsets of 8000
snare on 4000 etc..

making kits in sunvox

• add your samples
• connect a multisynth
• options 75 7F

that sets multisynth to c5 and divides output midi note by number of inputs to spread the sounds across the keys. loading sounds it's probably easiest to use milkytracker to create .xi files and save them as meta modules.

making sunvox like octamed or renoise on an ipad

Im' using a logitech k480
hosting bs-16i in aum as an inter app audio insturment instead of auv3 because the auv3 version isn't multitimberal. I have drums, bass, jazz gt, and piano set to trigger on midi channels 1 through 4.

• space = stop
• enter = play pattern
• shift enter = play song
• shift space = play from line
• cyclic shifting up/down = shift alt cmd up/down
• esc = edit mode
• ctrl left / right = select patterns
• alt up/down = page up/down
• ctrl 9/0 = mark block

shift pgup/pg down is kind of broken you need to shift arrow down 1 line before doing pgup/down or home/end making it awkward.

phrase editor

You can get similar behavior to Renoises phrase editor by using a metamodule that contains a pattern with a multisynth in it that receives the midi input. For the multisynth you set the options to 7F Arpeggiator (base note c5). Make sure to correctly set the input module and play mode to loop. If it double triggers you need to probably change the input module one higher. The benefit of nesting your drum patterns in metamodules is you can sequence drums in double time while keeping your main sequences at a more manageable scolling speed by simply halving the TPL. you can quickly fill sequences by using ctrl p to place evenly after ctrl t to select the columns.

bash script to make .desktop launchers

cool to be able to launch everything in rofi with its own icon. wine apps, app images,

#!/usr/bin/env bash
[[ "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" != "$0" ]] && return

APP_DIR="$HOME/.local/share/applications"
mkdir -p "$APP_DIR"

# Minimal prompts
read -rp "App name: " APP_NAME
read -rp "Path to executable: " EXEC_PATH
read -rp "Path to icon: " ICON_PATH

# Sanitize filename
FILE_NAME=$(echo "$APP_NAME" | tr ' ' '-' | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')
DESKTOP_FILE="$APP_DIR/$FILE_NAME.desktop"

# Create .desktop file
cat <<EOF > "$DESKTOP_FILE"
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=$APP_NAME
Exec=$EXEC_PATH
Icon=$ICON_PATH
Terminal=false
Categories=Utility;
EOF

chmod +x "$DESKTOP_FILE"

echo "✔ Created $DESKTOP_FILE"

the nee chopper in koala is so good

this is such a good tip on how to use midi out to make multi sampled snapshots of synths in koala similar to renoises vst sampling or fls using directwave

cool thing is it has patterns and works with soundfonts
