Supported Applications and Workflow Integration
Works within major DAWs that support the above plugin formats. After inserting the player on an instrument track, you can manage articulations via key-switching, MIDI CC, and the DAW's articulation/expression mapping features, and use automation to control dynamics and timbral details. When used with AI assistants or arrangement templates, MIDI can generate melodies and harmonies which can then be output as separate tracks into the mixing workflow, enabling a fast progression from draft to final.
