Noob Music lets you organize and play your Music Library and playlists. Noob Music uses NumRand a number generator based on chaotic motion for randomisation quality.
When closing the application, the application saves the library to database so please do not force quit the application even though it takes a while to close. Also when opening the application it takes a little while to load the library.
You can assign color-tags to each song in your library and shuffle grouped by tags so that you get a consistent "rainbow" spectrum of songs when you shuffle. For avid music listeners this feature is really useful, because organizing playlists can be time consuming. With the tag shuffle you get a playlist you can listen to without having to rearrange it after shuffling.
Noob Music also lets you shuffle without tag-shuffling if you have not assigned tags to your songs or you just want a totally random playlist. Noob Music uses NumRand a random number generator based on chaotic motion for the best random result. Because the randomisation method is complex it takes some time to shuffle large playlists.
Noob Music requires you to have all your music inside the Music folder of your home folder, in a sub folder or the root of the directory. You must choose the folder in the Settings section. And then index the folder. Music information is read from song files when you play each song and saved to the your library. Songs that don't contain information can be edited manually. Noob Music lets you create playlists and drag and drop songs to your playlist you can also drag and drop a playlist onto another playlist.
Noob Music supports mp3, m4a, wav, flac and aif.
If you have been using the UXP based application and you have started using the app store version you can copy the database file to the new Noob Music by first launching the latest version of Noob Music, then go to ~/Library/Application Support/NoobMusic/ open your profile and find noob_music.sqlite copy the file to your desktop or some convienient location and rename the file to NoobMusic.db (Make sure the Noob Music application is closed for the final step or else the db will be overwritten) then copy the file from your desktop to ~/Library/Containers/noob.software.noobmusic-macOS/Data/.local/share overwrite the db that is there (you can drag it to your desktop to make sure you don't overwrite data you want to keep.)
