Renoise

What is Renoise?

Renoise is a contemporary digital audio workstation (DAW) that combines the heritage of tracker software with a range of modern features. Its primary function is the composition of music using sound samples, soft synths, and effects plug-ins, and it also supports MIDI equipment integration. The distinguishing characteristic of Renoise is its vertical timeline sequencer, which is a hallmark of tracker software. This approach allows for a fast and immediate workflow, where music runs from top to bottom in an easily understood grid known as a pattern, and several patterns can be arranged in a specific order to create a song.

Highlights

• Support for a wide range of audio processors, virtual instruments, and effect plug-ins
• Extensibility through scripting to customize MIDI or OSC controller integration
