Documentation

Everything the app does, module by module, control by control.

NØISE is a single-screen guitar jam machine: plug in, press play, and a full band follows your chord chart. These docs describe every module, every control and every keyboard shortcut in the release build, plus how songs travel between the app and the community catalogue.

If you are new, start with Getting started. If you know the app and want one control explained, use search (⌘K) — it covers every heading on every page.
