## What is Noise Maschine?

NOISE MASCHINE - a digitally controlled noise synthesizer

Whether you want to create powerful noise music or aural relaxation sounds for health and sleep phase improvements - with NOISE MASCHINE you finally got the tool you need. 

An easy to use noise machine dedicated to instantly generate continuous playing of feedback loops and drone sounds. The flexible and unique synthesizer engine can be used to produce harsh noise and power noise in the style of Japanoise artists like Merzbow, Hijokaidan, Masonna, as well as Aube, Prurient, Gerogerigegege and alike. 

To "turn" a knob simply touch the control and move the finger vertically.

You can also create beautiful masking background noises or ambient environments to reduce distractions while working in an office or at home. From pure 440 Hz sinus waves to white noise and pink noise the sound spectrum is specially shaped to support a wide range of sound masking needs.

Unique features of NOISE MASCHINE include a powerful delay section that can create dangerous and unexpected digital noises by an integrated LFO that modifies the delay time instantly and repeats alternating frequencies while playing to emphasize drone effects. 

NOISE MASCHINE features eight different waveforms and LFO types:

SIN = Classic Sinus WAVE
PLS = Pulse WAVE
NSE = Noise WAVE
NST = Chromatically Noise Tone WAVE   
WNS = White Noise WAVE
TRI = Triangle WAVE
SAW = Saw WAVE
SQR = Square WAVE

Touch the oscilloscope graph to control the OSC directly. Switch HLD off to play discrete note steps (to be used for any waveform except NSE and WNS Waves). Delay section includes a dedicated LFO and additional Filter. Control distortion range as is, no additional clipping or filtering applied to produce pure digital noize - no analogue emulation hidden inside.  

Control Overview:

OSC FRQ - Oscillator Frequency
LFO FRQ - LFO Frequency (targets OSC)
LFO INT - LFO Intensity (targets OSC)
FLT FRQ - 24db Filter Frequency (before Delay)
FLT RES - Filter Resonance
DLY TME - Delay Time
DLY FDB - Delay Feedback
DLY LFO FRQ - LFO Frequency (targets DLY TME)
DLY LFO INT - LFO Intensity (targets DLY TME)
FLT FRQ 2 - 24db Filter Frequency (after Delay)
FLT RES 2 - Filter Resonance (after Delay)
HLD - Note Hold 
DST RNG - Distortion Range (be careful with this)
VOL CTR - Global Volume Control

The dedicated NOISE MASCHINE synthesizer application can be used in homes, commercial offices, wellness areas like sauna & spa, medical facilities, court rooms, and in secure facilities to provide secrecy. It also can be used outdoors to entertain your friendly neighbours when attached to a Marshall amplifier or equivalent.

By fine tuning the oscillator or via the dedicated touch area representing the currently generated sound waves NOISE MASCHINE can be also used for active noise control (ANC), also known as noise cancellation, or active noise reduction (ANR), which is a method for reducing unwanted sound by the addition of a second sound specifically designed to cancel the first: It can work similar to Bose QuietComfort acoustic noise cancellation headphones except that the sound is not captured by the built-in mic and the user has to actively sculp the sound that should interfere with the source - NOISE MASCHINE is meant to be used as a musical instrument and a creative tool to inspire new experiences.

The interface of NOISE MASCHINE is easy to understand and to access and intuitive as on classic synthesizers like the legendary Roland SH-101 or TB-303 or drum machines like the legendary TR-808 and TR-909: By sampling its sounds NOISE MASCHINE can also elaborate phat pounding bass drum sounds at the very lowest frequencies. Use headphones or an external amplifier to experience the full capabilities of the application.  

Have fun & take care for your ears!

### 4/5 — I would buy the pro version if it would let me

*2022-06-27, version 3.0*

But this is old and probably unsupported at this point.

Great noise generator.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-05-02, version 3.0*

Doesn’t work

### 3/5 — This app is good, but it lacks one simple feature that would make it great.

*2020-09-15, version 3.0*

I love the way this app sounds, and you can really tear the house down with some of the chaos it can create.

That said, the one thing that really hurts this app is the lack of inter app audio or audio is, anything to really get this app to work with say, GarageBand or other similar apps.  This REALLY kneecaps this app’s potential.  

I would seriously be willing to pay for an add free, version that I could get to work with the music making apps.  I use GarageBand quite a bit and it’s such a shame that there’s no support for this.

This app has so much potential, but without that feature, it just feels like a major lost opportunity, and it’s a shame.  

I really do love this app.  But it really needs this feature.  It’s begging for it.

### 5/5 — Excellent sound mangler

*2017-09-21, version 2.9*

But effective way to get machine mayhem

### 3/5 — Cool but....

*2017-08-03, version 2.9*

Need to get rid of the hidden ads and have a way to export the recorded wav file. Not through iTunes! Audiobus/IAA or AudioShare compatibility would make it an app I'd pay for. As it is not so much.
