3.8/5
note: i got mine for $60 in retail but it's supposed to be $120, so idk if it's worth the money really.
live mode: velocity sensitive pads shouldn't be pushed down, so hit them quick.
sequencer mode: great bonus, although tuning each note can be excessively tedious (especially when renoise doesn't record rests). knobs spin infinitely. there are selectable scales to tune to, though, which is especially helpful to someone who doesn't know music theory.
wires: usb (powered by), (aux to) midi, gate and cv, which is incredibly useful, apart from that you need a computer or other device nearby to use it.
pros (\-), neutrals (|-), and cons (/-) would be:
|- live mode pads are 1-2 octaves below the original note. this can be helpful, though, if connected to a computer with keyboard playing (ZXCVBNM,).
|- while sequencing, the first notch turn on a knob will playback the sound at the current pitch, which may be frustrating (but also helpful) while trying so sequence speedily.
/- pads are tough, but this is user preference. i don't mind
\- feels great. cold and sleek, knobs are top notch.
4.8 out of 5
very fun and great. not like fl studios where everything slides around and makes horrid noises, and not like ableton where...
pros:
- version 1.5.2
- solid and tight. hard to do anything you didn't mean to do
- you won't forget about automations
- multiple effects and whatnot won't mess it up
- looks really cool
- feels great to type music instead of click it
- great key combs for pattern control (ctrl+right, ctrl+right, ctrl+dn, ctrl+left. switched two sequences.
- great startup speed (fruit guy too slow)
- friendly tool tips (and no anime dance thing)
- 2005 great disc browser with quick playback
- customizable theme and key combs
- many time signatures (pretty much as many as you need, you 71/35 freakhead)
- speed control and tick system is great and in tact
- many transposes (and not just a knob eagh)
- beat slicing and GREAT pattern commands (0B00)
- stereoexpander and singlepole lp
- has toggleable backup saves
- idk how to buy 2005 1.5.2 ver instead of 3.0
neutrals:
- hexadecimal. helpful in having more numbers but sometimes hard to calculate.
cons
- 2005 sample editor is rather lame (no timestretch, etc)
- 2005 crashes
- 2005 playbacking samples sometimes stop because they long (reasonable)
- 2005 effects are ok
- 2005 reverbs are usually bleh
- clips sometimes (probably just me)
- 2005 hard to make GREAT sounds without vst plugins
anything with 2005 could either just be a problem from 2005 or maybe it's still there. download the demo, that's all i can use because idk how TO BUY 2005 FVERSON.]
overall, it's you. it's not renoise. renoise is a hot friendly smart caring guy and it's you. renoise has done nothing wrong, and never will. get the right sounds -- get the right sequences -- u ho.

nice synth, but it feels a bit punchy and warm. sometimes you need the cold ambient things, and the fuzzy knobs don't help.
pros:
+ sequencer is great and can go at very fast hasticities
+ patch matrix
+ good waveforms and they use knobs which is nice
+ small detail, but the filter has an env mod knob, which reserves space for 3 potential sends (vol, filt, misc)
+ feels great, steel cold and everything but the keys is fuzzy and inviting (strange wording).
neutrals:
- brute factor is an alright dist but it won't do in ruby my dear hardcore style acid
cons:
- MUSH KEYS
- fuzzy knobs too oblique hard for me to get just the right electrics out of it. but plucky sounds are fun
3.67/5
note: currently circuitbending. easy to circuitbend, would recommend to circuitbend (ic 4556 (all the way to the right when looking at the left of it) pin 3 to 7, 1 to 3 or 7 works nice too. i got creative and bent it to the other ic 4556 chips so try that but DO NOT get solder stuck in the pins.)
drum pads are really fun to smack. patterns are great to program. no tuning though, and i can't get my midi to work.
pros cons neutrals:
\- drum pads feel nice to smack
\- relatively easy ui
\- sliders are great
\- tempo button offers alternative to tempo slider
\- some steel on the sides or so
\- has alternative snare, hi hat (sounds great) and cowbell/shaker
\- has clap which is a nice alternative to the snare
|- toms are decent
|- many sounds are cheesy in some situations, but not too bad
|- unattachable power chord (won't lose, but short, but long enough)
/- sample technology (good for circuitbends), not an 808 if you're looking for that
/- corrosion causes buttons to spam on some issues
/- gets HOT
\- gets HOT for the winter
/- gets HOT for the winter
/- once again, i can't figure out the midi. probably mine since i got it for $60
but the sounds are good except for in demo
pros cons neutrals
\- sounds pretty good
|- compact (may lose, but won't not never un-bring with you)
/- ??????????????????????HoW to use ()P-16
4.0/5
recording samples and stuff masshupseESSd
\- ReaLLy good
|- ?????
/- idk the tracks get confusing i guess
