Version: 1.0.3
I love this app. Thank you.
Request:
-To layer sounds more easily than having to close the prefs window while preview is playing.
-To remember previously playing audio upon restart.
Noi kept hanging on my mac -- the icon was in the menubar but i could only get the beachball when hovering the pointer over it. I removed the Library/Noi folder and that fixed it. It may have happened because I manually removed some of the mp3s I had previously placed there?

I downloaded the very first version of Noi that was posted here and it was great, but since updating to Noi 1.0.3 it no longer remembers which of my sounds I've chosen to not be "Visible". Every time I restart all of them are visible, so I have to set the preferences over and over again.
This error did not occur in the previous versions.
I am using OS X 10.6.5.

To even out should JRodatus rating get deleted this is a fantastic app. Flawless, easy to use, does what it says. Works great. Would be great to see this become open source though.

This is the developer. Noi is tested only for Mac OS X 10.5.8. MacUpdate's screenshots suggest it may have bugs for other versions of OS X:
For example, there are 2 soundscapes packaged with the app, but the screenshots do not show them installed. Also, you might have to resize the settings window to make the scrollbar appear :-/
If you do or don't have these problems with your version of OS X, your input is appreciated.
