Challenge
Noiiz is a Leeds startup that is revolutionising the world of music production by providing access to a vast catalogue of sounds & presets for a single subscription price. It's been featured in Music Tech Magazine, Sound On Sound and more, and has thousands of regular users. We've been working with Noiiz since the very beginning, bootstrapping their technology with the Rails web app that powers their main catalogue. Now they have their own development team and we've been working closely with them to develop features and enhancements, and consulting on the best ways to scale the platform.
Solution
Some of the technical features we've introduced to Noiiz include: A search & filtering engine for the catalogue featuring PostgreSQL tsvector technology. Deep integration with Stripe for recurring payments. Quota management for users on different subscription plans. An in-browser audio player with waveform display. "Infinite" scrolling on most pages. Administration interface with spreadsheet upload functionality for adding new sounds to the catalogue. A jobs worker that handles the background processing of sound metadata. A variant user interface that is integrated directly into their DAW plugin. A comprehensive test suite which now has over 800 test cases.
