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.

Automation
Automate any MAGDA parameter: draw curves in lanes, record moves with Write / Touch / Latch modes, or let the AI agent write curves from a prompt.

MIDI Controllers
Plug in a controller, focus a device — the eight macro knobs already drive its macros. Right-click anything to MIDI Learn. Profiles are community-shareable.

Parameter Customisation
Customise plugin parameters: hide the ones you don't use, give them proper units and ranges, or let the AI classify them for you. Learn mode finds any control by clicking it in the plugin's own window.

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.

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.

Modulation & Macros
Modulate any parameter at sample rate with LFOs and bezier curve shapers at device, rack, or track scope. Macros and modulators can also drive other LFOs' rate (new in 0.6).
