NOISE is the most expressive music app to ever hit the glass surface of an iPhone. Building on both the 3D Touch technology of the iPhone 6s and ROLI’s expertise in touch-sensitive music interfaces, NOISE transforms the surface of your iPhone into a powerful multidimensional instrument.
Make some NOISE
This free instrument fits in your pocket, and its expressive capabilities are vast. Modelled on the award-winning Seaboard RISE, the unique playing surface lets you shape sounds by striking the surface, pressing into it, gliding your fingers from side to side, sliding your fingers up and down, and lifting off. Five Touch Faders let you fine-tune the touch-responsiveness of the surface.
Explore a collection of sounds
NOISE comes with 25 exquisite sounds from acoustic strings to richly layered synthetic effects. Custom-crafted by ROLI’s sound designers, they are all built for Multidimensional Polyphonic Expression (MPE). Each one sounds - and even feels - different on NOISE’s surface. You have hours of exploration ahead of you.

NOISE is also the ultimate portable sound engine for a Seaboard RISE.

Select sounds for your RISE directly from NOISE, and use the iPhone speakers as the audio for your RISE.
