Description
The software features a highly intuitive, fast, and modular graphical interface built on QT 4, designed for ease of use. It includes a sample-based stereo audio engine that allows for the import of sound samples in a variety of formats, including .wav, .au, and .aiff, with support for compressed FLAC files as well. Users can take advantage of a pattern-based sequencer that permits an unlimited number of patterns and the ability to seamlessly chain them into complete songs. Each pattern can accommodate up to 192 ticks and offers individual levels per event alongside variable pattern lengths. Additionally, the platform supports an unlimited number of instrument tracks, each equipped with volume, mute, solo, and pan functionalities. Notably, it allows for multi-layered instruments, accommodating up to 16 samples per instrument. Time-stretching and pitch adjustments are made possible through the rubberband cli, which requires the rubberband-cli package for operation. The Director Window features a visual metronome alongside song position tags, enhancing user interaction. Users can effortlessly export and import single patterns into song projects, and MIDI learning can be activated with a Shift+MouseClick on various GUI controllers, facilitated by a MIDI settings editor. Moreover, the software includes unique functions for human velocity, timing, pitch, and swing, enhancing the creative possibilities for users. Overall, its robust feature set makes it an ideal tool for both novice and experienced music producers.
