# ABOUT RENOISE:

Renoise is a complete music production environment for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux. It features
full ReWire support, FX and instrument VST/AU plug-in support, automatic plug-in delay
compensation, multi-core load balancing, MIDI I/O, audio recording, flexible audio output,
graphical & numerical parameter automation, modular parameter routing, and much more.

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.

Renoise's rock solid stability makes it ideal as a live jamming tool. You can map almost every part
of the interface to a MIDI controller, run your guitar through a Line-In Device and distort it with
native effects, or just use it as a replacement for an MPC.

Due to its keyboard driven workflow, it makes the creation of music for new users far quicker than
in a traditional MIDI based sequencer. For experienced users, and those who don't necessarily want
to be bound to piano roll systems to music, it offers a refreshing approach to composing:

Instead of spending hours cobbling beats together with a mouse, why not do it in seconds with just
a few keystrokes in Renoise? Whether you're an audio veteran or just starting out, Renoise is a
fantastic addition to any bedroom or professional studio.

Make music? Use Renoise.
