1. What is «Travel Through Phrases» or «TTP»?
The Travel Through Phrases, also known as TTP, is a powerful and lightweight «dual data direction tool module» oriented for browsing, listening, creating, cloning, direct recording and configuration of instrument phrases from the Pattern Editor with multiple utilities, such as importing to phrase from the current line, importing to phrase by selection or even by adaptive live recording, allowing moving or copying data and even compress them (remove unnecessary note columns or empty lines, or even add final lines to complete the last step). It is also built to be able to deposit entire phrases into the Pattern Editor from the current line and the current note column, even in a continuous loop, thus providing a «two-way data system» between the Pattern Editor and the Phrase Editor of Renoise.
It offers multiple control capabilities, both for keyboard commands (specially designed for them), and for the mouse through a compact floating window (with click, double click and wheel), as well as for MIDI input (focused for a 16-pad MIDI pad or similar). The TTP tool is exclusive for the Renoise DAW (64 bit, v3.4.3) or future versions.
On the other hand, the Travel Through Phrases has unique features thanks to its «Phrase Monitor» panel, such as the thumbnail view of the current phrase, an instrument browser, a phrase browser, an agile mobile browser of phrases for previewing, a bar comparator on quantities of lines of the pattern-track of the Pattern Editor and the phrase, which allows better control of the loop copy. Additionally, the Phrase Monitor panel allows you to easily edit the properties of each phrase with the mouse wheel, including a quick timer to change a specific property across multiple phrases, such as the phrase’s «LPB» value or the «Base Note» of the phrase. In the instrument’s Keymap mode, it also allows you to quickly assign all phrases to keys by range cumulatively, greatly facilitating the process. All of this allows for more skillful visual and listening control on instruments with a large number of phrases, compared to Renoise‘s Phrase Editor and its own browser.
In addition, the «MIDI Input Controls» panel offers customizable and fixed profiles that change the complete configuration of the entire Pad x16 in a single step, allowing these profiles to be changed on the fly. This design allows you to quickly change all settings on the linked USB MIDI pad controller, without the need to re-route MIDI links.
Finally, the TTP tool has a sub-tool to export and import XRNZ phrases in bulk. Thus, it is possible to save all the XRNZ phrases of an instrument in a single step to a specific folder, or to load all the XRNZ phrases of a specific folder to the current instrument in a single step.
In short, with all this arsenal of specific options, Travel Through Phrases is a powerful tool, designed by and for the management of phrases, being able to skillfully use the Phrase Editor as if it were a data repository, even similar to a multiple clipboard, allowing not only to easily create new phrases, but also to get rid of them by depositing all the information in the Pattern Editor, resulting in a very practical and flexible 2 in 1.
This is another multi-tool for Renoise created and programmed by ulneiz that also includes a sponsor, which means that it has received previous support and encouragement from the «Community of Renoise» to be able to start developing it. This unified tool brings together most of the features requested by other composers for working with phrases and the Pattern Editor. Thank you very much for facilitating the expansion of Renoise with its ecosystem of Lua tools!
