Supported Applications and Main Workflow Integration
Can be loaded as an instrument track in mainstream DAWs, played via MIDI keyboard with key switches and MIDI CC controlling articulations and expression; key parameters can be mapped to DAW automation, and custom articulation mappings can be created to improve writing efficiency. Projects can use freezing or offline rendering to manage resources; it can also be used alongside AI assistants for text-to-orchestration sketch workflows before returning to the DAW for final editing and mixing.
