Supported Applications and Workflow Integration
Loadable as an instrument plugin within mainstream DAWs that support AU/VST3/AAX, it can be triggered via a MIDI keyboard or track MIDI data, and parameters such as brightness, dynamics, and pedal can be automated. Freeze and offline rendering can be used to speed up mixing. When collaborating with an AI assistant, the assistant can generate chord/melody MIDI that is imported into the DAW to trigger this instrument, or use virtual MIDI routing for real-time auditioning; afterward export audio stems for editing and mastering. Actual compatibility and performance depend on the host version, hardware, and system settings.
