## What is NoiseSpace?

NoiseSpace is an experimental sound generator based on simplex noise, which is then used in a granular synthesis algorithm. This design allows for the creation of a vast array of diverse waveforms rich in harmonics with a rich low-frequency spectrum. The generator is controlled by just a few simple parameters.

Despite its somewhat chaotic and atonal nature, it is great for creating rich noise, gritty textures, complex patterns and deep, dark, mesmerizing and tense backgrounds. It is especially suitable for creating ambient compositions, as well as sci-fi, industrial, post-apocalyptic and horror atmospheres. This app also serves as a powerful tool for noise art and sound design, offering users the ability to craft intricate and captivating sonic structures. With its focus on deep, hypnotic, and tension-filled soundscapes, NoiseSpace is an essential tool for musicians, sound designers, and artists exploring experimental and textural audio creation.

Starting with NoiseSpace is remarkably easy. The application features a dedicated "Create" button that generates unique and interesting presets ready for immediate use, requiring only minimal adjustment to suit the user's needs or ideas. Additionally, it includes options for generating sequences and patterns, and for simple tone and modulation creation for each generator, making the application user-friendly and ready for immediate exploration right from the start.

Key Features:

Five Sound Generators: Utilizes simplex noise and granular synthesis to create diverse sound textures.
Versatile Sound Options: Offers a vast range of sound variations with just a few parameters.
Advanced Filters: Includes both classic and complex filters for each generator.
Low-Frequency Modulators: Each generator is equipped with three LFOs that can control most parameters.
Dual Output System: Each generator has a main output and a special output for background sound.
Layered Sound Design: Generator outputs are combined to create two layers - main sound and background.
Pattern and Texture Creation: Features an internal sequencer / binary counter for managing generators.

NoiseSpace is a universal application for iOS and macOS. It can work on iPhone and iPad as well as Mac / MacBook with M1 chip (and later). NoiseSpace works on iPhone and iPad standalone, as an Audio Unit or Inter-App Audio module, and supports Audiobus and Ableton Link. On MacOS, NoiseSpace can works both as a standalone application and as an Audio unit (AUv3) with DAWs and other hosts that support AUv3 plugins. NoiseSpace has a built-in detailed description of all parameters also available as PDF file on the application site.

### 5/5 — Verified:  Works onMacOS perfectly

*2026-01-29*

Fantastic sound design functions…hours of sound experimentation to add to your tracks.  I have this on iMac, iPad and iPhone - all working.

### 5/5 — GET ALL OF IGORS APPS!!!

*2025-11-23*

I have all of Igor’s apps and they never leave my devices. Each app is unique in its own way as well as platforms for discovery. I cannot wait for ExoSphere!!!

### 5/5 — Horrifically beautiful.

*2025-09-04*

A thoughtfully designed, often surprising noisemaker. At 13MB, it’s about as light of an app you’re going to see for essentially infinite sample fodder. 

A sound designers dream. 

Add with SpaceFields and NoInputMixer for endless possibilities.

### 4/5 — Great sounds but dropouts when recording

*2025-05-25*

Loving the noise this app can make but the dropouts when recording are really frustrating. Often just as there’s a great bit of variation it drops out and ruins the record. Not sure why on an iPad Pro with no other apps running? Hence only 4 stars

### 4/5 — NoiseSpace experiments

*2025-05-11*

As a way to create and experiment , this app is astonishingly fun to use. If it is in fact supposed to be able to import audio files, I’m unable to do so. I’ve tried wav, aiff, mp4, at 44.1 and 48 k. So far, all I get is errors.  Rock solid and stable as well. Tell me what I’m doing wrong re the audio import and I’ll change this to A 5 star.

Thanks

Stephen

### 5/5 — Frustratingly Deep

*2025-04-25*

I have never been as deeply drawn to apps as much as Igor’s. I keep coming back to them and there is so much to discover in his universe that I will likely never discover everything they can do. I particularly love the Random button in NoiseSpace.  It is a great template to explore the depth of sound. I’m a lifelong fan.

### 5/5 — Astonishingly deep.

*2025-03-05*

From random generation to hours of intentional sound design, this app is amazing. As amazing as the rest of Igor’s stuff.
It’s very unconventional, and his “philosophy” on UI/UX design is obviously unconventional and somewhat iconoclastic, but there’s method to the madness under the surface.

### 5/5 — Advancing the science of noise.

*2025-02-26*

I've been playing with the pre-release version of this app for a couple of weeks, and found it not only easy to use, but also good at producing interesting mechanical and/or SciFi soundscapes.  For each of the generators, you can set random parameters, which really help in getting you started.  From there it is just a matter of tweaking the dials and settings until you find something that does what you want.  Alternatively you can go at it from a blank slate, which is a brilliant way of learning what it can do.  After you've used it for a few hours, you start to understand the relationship between the various parameters, and this helps in getting closer to the sound you really need or want.  The other thing I like is the fact that it is easy to dial back a setting if you find it is not doing what you want.  Sound Engineers, Sci/Fi musicians or anyone wanting something different you should definitely have a look at this app.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2025-03-13

With this update you can use NoiseSpace as an effect with other apps or even with real instruments. The new filter allows the input source to be modulated by the noise generator signal. It is something like ring modulation, but more varied and experimental. It is possible to use an external signal instead of a noise generator for one or more generators. The input signal will pass through the same filters and effects for the main and background layers.

Also in this update:

- Added the option to feed input signal to all generators.
- The phases of all LFOs are synced with the beat clock.
- Added generator number to the control panel.
- Fixed issue with MIDI controls for generators.
- Added several new presets.
- Ableton Link has been updated.
- A few more minor bugs have been fixed.
- The description has been updated.

### 1.0 — 2025-02-26
