AI Agents & DSL Console

AI agents that understand your session and generate commands in a built-in DSL. Cloud providers or local inference with llama.cpp — no API keys required.

Chord Engine

Real-time chord detection, key analysis, and context-aware suggestions — embedded inside the piano roll. Generate progressions from text with the AI tab.

Arpeggiator & Step Sequencer

Two new MIDI devices: a full arpeggiator with pattern, rate, gate, swing and latch, and a self-driving step sequencer with step recording and AI prompt-to-pattern.

Read more →

Time Bend & Groove

Reshape timing across the app. Time Bend redistributes notes along a curve; groove templates apply non-destructive feel. Both stack for phrase-level shaping.

Read more →

Modulation & Macros

Modulate any parameter at sample rate with LFOs and bezier curve shapers at the device, rack, or track level. Bipolar macro links.

Read more →

FX Racks

Build complex signal chains with multi-chain FX racks. Route audio through parallel and serial processing paths.

Read more →

Workflow

Hybrid audio + MIDI on every track. Bounce in place, bounce to new, freeze or flatten. Async BPM detection so large files no longer block the UI.

Read more →

Instruments & Effects

4OSC subtractive synth, the Drum Grid with per-pad plugin chains and multi-output routing, plus built-in EQ, compressor, reverb, delay, chorus and distortion.
