DIN Is Noise is a program for making sound, music and noise. Use
bezier curves to edit waveforms, envelopes, modulators and FX
components; use the keyboard (computer and MIDI) to trigger notes (or
noise), use the mouse to sound like the theremin, create drones on
microtones, launch, orbit and drag them around; bounce balls on walls
to trigger notes in a mondrian inspired drawing and also make binaural
beats. Supports MIDI input and scripting through TCL.

!+! what is fixed when modulating microtonal range?:
+ left, right or center
!+! voice is voice or noise on microtonal keyboard
+ voice intones the pitch under mouse cursor
+ volume of voice is mouse's height above the bottom of the microtonal
keyboard
+ noise makes noise with frequency content related to pitch under cursor
+ volume of noise is mouse's height above the bottom of the microtonal
keyboard
!+! presets for superformula geometry > waveform/envelope/modulation curve
plugin
+ Click on Browse on Superformula page on a curve editor
+ Mouse wheel or move up and down to browse the shapes
+ Apply or Auto Apply
+ toggle draw mesh outline
+ improved selection of point modulators
+ improved selection of sine mixer bookmarks
! modulate checkbutton set when Menu > Ranges > Toggle !
/!/ zooming curve editor when mouse captures are paused does not update visual
!
