Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
What's New in Prism
64-Trig Mode:
Go from 16 to 64 trigs in a full-screen view built for fast sequencing and p-lock editing. Hold shift and press the full screen button that appears beneath the main sequencer trigs.
Slim Sequencer View:
Drag to a narrow layout for a 32-step view that sits alongside your AUv3 plugin. Sequence and tweak at the same time.
Draw Your Own LFO Shapes:
Draw LFO waveforms freehand. Link the cycle to your sequence length and set loop count — great for risers and sweeps that stay locked to your pattern.
Smoother Pattern & Scene Switching:
Patterns and scenes transition musically now, whether quantized to bar or not. Long-press to preview a pattern or scene, release to snap back.
Drum Randomization:
Randomize a full pattern or just a section. Pick a genre preset, remix what's there, or go fully random.
GM Drum Type Tagging:
Assign a standard GM Drum type to each pad. Randomization and MIDI drum imports use these to map correctly.
Chromatic Drum Keyboard:
Cycle and layer drum pads on a single sequence with the keypad note button. Stack multiple pads, multiple hits per trig, full chromatic range at any position.
Melt Capture:
Hit capture on a melting track to write the results into the sequence.
Step FX + Melt Mode:
Step FX now works on melting tracks.
Drum Layering & Sidechaining:
Layer pads with per-pad velocity offsets. Sidechain support for drums added.
P-Lock Smoothing:
Per-trig parameter lock smoothing for more natural modulation.
Simpler Piano Roll:
Drag to select, drag to move, two-finger drag to resize.
Bug fixes, CPU improvements, and visual cleanup throughout.
