If you want to share MIDI mappings you've set up, you can do so by importing/exporting them. To clear all of the mapped parameters, click the "Clear" button at the top of the dialog (next to the "Load" and "Save" buttons). Alternatively, press the "Clear" button next to the parameter description: Then hit the Backspace or Delete key on your keyboard. To remove a mapping, open the MIDI Mapping dialog and click on the mapped part of the Renoise GUI. This allows Renoise to estimate how the encoder works (guess the relative CC modes) and stop you from having to keep manually resetting the mode. Note: When using endless encoders, which may send one of the relative CC modes noted above, slowly turn it to the left in order to map it. Renoise will automatically map the selected parameter to the chosen key/button/fader of the controller. Send MIDI from your controller (press a key, push a button, move a fader etc.).Click on a highlighted parameter or button.Note that the highlighted colour may vary according to the current interface Theme. This only applies when Edit Mode is enabled. Record MIDI mapped parameters to automation: When enabled, any parameter changes you make with the MIDI controller will be recorded into either the Pattern Editor or Automation Editor.As an example, this could be used for cross-fades of two track volume parameters. Allow mapping the same Note/CC more than once: When enabled, you can assign the same controller button or fader (the same MIDI message) to multiple things in Renoise.See Set, Trigger and Toggle Mappings for a detailed description. Prefer 'Setting' instead of 'Toggling' On/Off states: Specify how the controller should change things that are turned On/Off in Renoise.Tip: Swap min and max values to reverse the controller. Max: This allows you to set up the upper boundary of the controller in Renoise.
Min: When mapping, for example, a MIDI fader or encoder to an effect parameter in Renoise, this allows you to set up the lower boundary of the controller.Relative two's comp: Increase at, decrease at.
Relative bin offset: Increase at, decrease at.Relative signed bit 2: Increase at, decrease at.Relative signed bit: Increase at, decrease at.Absolute 7 bit: Use the CC value as an absolute value.CC Type: The type of MIDI CC controller.CC No: The CC number currently mapped from your controller.Channel: The MIDI channel currently mapped from your controller.Selected parameter: Displays the currently mapped parameter in Renoise.Available & Active Mappings: Clicking the arrow will unfold a list of the currently available and active mappings.When clicked, "Learn Mode" will become "Test Mode", which allows you to test out what you've just mapped without having to close the MIDI Mapping dialog.Select a highlighted button or parameter, then press a key or move a controller to assign. Highlights all the parts of Renoise available for MIDI Mapping (see image below).Left: MIDI Clock (if enabled in the MIDI Preferences).If you are in doubt about whether your MIDI controller is set up and connected correctly to Renoise, then watch the green LED (input), which should blink when you use the controller. Next to the "MIDI Map" button you will also find two small LEDs which show the MIDI input/output that Renoise receives/sends. It can also be opened by clicking the button to the right of the VU meters at the top of the Renoise interface. The MIDI Mapping dialog box can be opened with the "Options -> MIDI Mapping." option in the main menu (or by pressing "Left Control/Command + M"). You have to manually (at least once for a Template Song) set up the controller.įirst make sure Renoise knows which device you want to use for MIDI mapping by setting it in the "Edit -> Preferences -> MIDI" panel. Renoise will never automatically detect your MIDI controller and configure the mappings for you.
MIDI mappings are saved along with your song, unlike the keyboard mappings in the Preferences, allowing you to create unique MIDI mapping sessions for every song and also share the settings by either using Template Songs or by importing/exporting common MIDI mappings in the MIDI dialog (see below). Nearly everything you can do in Renoise with the mouse or the keyboard can also be done from an external MIDI controller. With MIDI Mapping you can remotely control Renoise from your external MIDI controller or master keyboard.
