Here's a Renoise song featuring 30 scales, each scale being declined to all the notes of an octave. All you have to do is open 2 instances of Renoise and copy/paste the desired scale to your existing tune.

Scales.xrns

EDIT : btw the scales collection is taken from the excellent Ravenspiral Guide

How does this work? The file 'song.xrns' seems to be empty to me.

How empty is it?
It should look like that :



On the left the pattern list shows the different scales and for each of them you have the 12 root note declension.

I have a c64 with a tracker cart, do all trackers work like this? It looked mental so I gave up, but some dubheads i talked to recently swear by trackers... worth furtther investigation?

Don't know much about the C64s but yes trackers work pretty much all the same way. Renoise is just the most advanced of them with all the features you expect from a professional software.
Definitely worth investigating closely

cheers, i'll let you know how i get on!!

great little file there dafty thanks!

Glad somebody makes use of it

Still, can't figure out how to OPEN the file. Is it just a song? It doesn't even show up when I select 'song' and then the folder where I downloaded it into.

I updated the link above, it should work fine.

DAFT tnuc YOU LEG END!!!!!!!!








Danke.

I dont use Renoise and have not heard of 'trackers' or 'scales' :s
Any chance of a simple break down of what this stuff is about?

Err, scales, you know... musical scales... doh-ray-me-fah-so-la-te-doh.

Trackers are another kind of sequencer. You're used to piano rolls and step sequencers (Redrum), trackers are a third type. The song scrolls downwards instead of across, and you input notes like a spreadsheet. They are an absolute tnuc to get a hang of when you're used to a piano roll, but they let you do some really cool edits and stuff that would take a lot of hair-pulling in a piano roll. That's why they're still really popular with jungle, breakcore and drill'n'bass producers, but you find guys using trackers in any genre.
