Renoise is a complete,
expandable Digital Audio Workstation (DAW).
Renoise is based
on mod trackers. Mod trackers are characterized by displaying
and editing music in an easily understood grid known as a
pattern. These patterns are akin to sheet music, but are
displayed alphanumerically instead of with musical notation.
Features
highlights:
-
ReWire and Jack Transport Support:
Connect and synchronize Renoise with other audio
applications. You can now combine the best things about
trackers and sequencers.
-
Automatic PDC (Plugin Delay Compensation):
Plug-ins and external inputs have varying amounts of delay,
making your tracks sound really sloppy. With Automatic PDC,
instruments and effects in your productions will be tightly
synced.
-
High resolution timing: With
the new timing engine added in Renoise 2.0 you can place
events with a maximum resolution of up to 65,536 PPQ. This
high precision allows live recordings to retain their
natural, human feel.
-
Multi-Core Support: Take
advantage of all the cores in your system to boost
performance, allowing you to add much more and heavier DSPs,
tracks, VST FX and VST Instruments than before.
-
Interface: Quick. Once you
get rolling with the keyboard shortcuts, there is no
stopping you. There are no annoying floating windows. Every
widget stays where it belongs.
-
Multi Platform: Renoise runs
on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. If you want to use Renoise
on all of them, that is possible too. No need to register a
separate copy.
-
MIDI: Connect Renoise to
hardware synths or VST instruments to send and receive notes
and controllers changes. Sync Renoise in either master or
slave mode.
-
Plugin support: VSTi, VSTfx,
LADSPA and AudioUnits: Plug-ins provides you a vast array of
effects and synths. With Renoise all that is within reach.
Why not map an external MIDI controller to a plugin through
the Automate Device and start tweaking for real?.
-
Low latency audio with Multi-I/O ASIO:
Soundcards with ASIO benefit from low audio latency and the
ability to route individual tracks through any available
hardware channel.
-
Integrated Sampler: Edit and
playback samples with the Sample Editor.
-
External Audio Recording: You
can record your sound card's line-in in the Sample Editor.
Capture perfectly synched or manually triggered external
audio directly into a sample slot. Or route the external
signal through the Line-In Device into the DSP Chain.
-
Instrument Editor: Turn VST
Instruments into CPU-friendly multi-sample Instruments with
the Instrument Editor.
-
Mixer: Renoise's flexible
answer to the traditional mixer. Also doubles as an
interface for the DSP Chain.
-
Built-in DSP Effects: Reverb,
delay, compressor, distortion, flanger, phaser, EQ. Use as
many of them as you like - or your PC can handle.
-
Track routing: The Send and
Master tracks pave the way for unique routing options.
Whether you route a single channel or 50 channels to a Send
track full of effects, your PC's CPU will hardly know the
difference.
-
Automation: Draw curves to
tell effects and instruments how their parameters should
change during playback.
-
Rendering to WAV: Export your
songs to WAV. Up to 32-bit, 96 kHz, with either cubic or
sinc interpolation. Renoise can also save the separate
tracks and patterns.
-
File formats: Renoise accepts
many sample and song formats.
