Renoise is the next generation of music tracker software, combining studio quality sound and virtually infinite expandability with a clear and consise interface putting every parameter and option literally at your fingertips!

While using proven music tracker concepts and technology with a pedigree running back to the days of the Amiga, Renoise fully supports MIDI and embraces modern and limitless VST/VSTi plugin technologies, therefore achieving power and precision every electronic musician has been dreaming of, all in one affordable piece of software!

Through over 3 years of development we listened to our users, implementing their suggestions and considering their complaints. The result; powerful and reliable music software that suits your needs.

INTERFACE: Quick, consise and user friendly, offering the information you need, exactly when you need it, fully configurable, allowing you to truly personalise your working environment.

MIDI: Full MIDI and MIDI sync (master/slave modes) support. Will fit right in with your current studio setup.

VST PLUGIN AND VST INSTRUMENTS: Renoise offers full support for VST 2.0 technology, including synths, effects and DSP processors, allowing near infinite expandability.

ASIO SUPPORT: ASIO multi I/O cards support, giving users extremely low audio latency and the ability to route tracks to the hardware channels.

FILE FORMATS: Imports and plays most popular song / module / instrument / sample formats.

New in v1.9.1

• Solved CPU detection with some newer AMD multicore processors. Renoise could sometimes recognize those as single core CPUs with some energy saving settings enabled.
• The 2nd Pattern Editor "Delete" keyboard shortcut has not removed FX values, but just Notes.
• VST FX On/Off automation could cause unwanted delays when rendering songs to disk.
• Very high pitched backwards or ping-pong sample loops sometimes didn't played back correctly.
• The Mac "Jack-insert" VST should now work properly in Renoise.
  OSX Leopard: Hitting/releasing the Command or Control key while Caps-Lock was on could produce unwanted Note-Off events.

• VST plugins which are listed as FX but are VST instruments, will now automatically be "fixed" (listed correctly) after you've instantiated them and restarted Renoise.
• Import of Impulse Tracker songs skipped IT Note-off/Note-cut pattern events.
• Import of Fasttracker XM songs could lead to invalid sequencer loop ranges.
• Instrument envelopes in Fasttracker XM and Impulse Tracker IT songs are now correctly imported.
• Easier Drag and Drop in the Pattern Editor: You no longer have to hold the mouse button down a bit, before you can drag a selection in the Pattern Editor to move or copy it.
• Rescanning the folder & file contents in the Disk Browser should be a bit faster now.
• Zoombar in sample editor has been moved underneath the sample-view frame to fit to the current view.
• Added a "Draw Mode" and to the Sample Editor to draw new tiny waves by hand, or to retouch existing waveforms. A simple "Create Sample" option was added as well, so that you can create new hand-drawn samples.
• Added "Clear Muted Tracks/Columns" actions (shortcuts + context menu entries) to the Pattern Editor and Sequencer. This can be especially useful as an "arranging" aid in the Sequencer.
• Added a "Record Dry" switch to the Sample Editors recorder, which allows you to preview the to be recorded signal wet (depending on the selected Track FX), but enforces to record the dry signal (without FX).
• Added an info button to VST / LADSPA FX, which will show you some details about the loaded plugin.
