| RapidComposer 6.0.1 Oct 27, 2025 |
Added "Mute all variations in all tracks" and "Mute all MIDI CCs in all tracks" buttons to the Track Inspector. Added "Copy variations to all tracks" and "Copy MIDI CCs to all tracks" buttons to the Track Inspector. Added "Copy progressions to group" command to the Progression Browser (right-click after selecting progressions). In browsers, both left-clicking and right-clicking now select all items in a group (use Ctrl to toggle selection). The Model files folder can now be specified under Settings / Locations. In the Tonnetz view, right-clicking now deselects all notes; Ctrl+click on a note deselects all others. Live Mode: when applying track offset, notes are now rotated instead of removed. Fixed hanging notes in Live Mode when quantization was set to none. Fixed an issue where some Live Mode settings were not saved with the composition. Fixed: the "Neural Phrase Engine" button was not displayed in the Phrase Editor when AI buttons were set to hidden in the settings. Fixed: using Undo in Phrase Editing after a change made in DAW mode caused the on-screen keyboard to disappear. |

Neural Phrase Engine: generate or continue phrases and multi-track compositions using local AI models trained on MIDI data. Available in the full edition. New LIVE mode: trigger and perform sections of your composition from a MIDI keyboard in real time, with per-track speed, transpose, and timing controls. Available in the full edition. Two master tracks (A and B) for experimenting with chord progressions; you can copy one track to the other or just selected chords. Each track can be assigned to master track A or B SFZ instruments supported; SoundFonts/SFZ page redesigned Note editing completely reworked: click to create, double-click to remove, Ctrl-click to select, Alt-click to split/glue notes. Alt key shows scissors/glue cursor over notes, phrases, or chords Click-and-hold on the timeline scrolls horizontally and zooms vertically New chords menu with operations on multiple chords: glue chords, change triad type, add/remove chord tones (5th–13th) Improved timeline selection editing with better visual indication Progress indicators when loading compositions and SFZ files Note length editing added to Rhythm Lab which makes it even more flexible New setting: 'Note editing with mouse' (the default tool is the pencil, so you can create notes immediately without pressing Ctrl) New setting: 'Note creation' (dragging during note creation can transpose the note) New setting: 'Show snapped position' (during note editing the snapped position is shown) 'Fill chords' menu added to master track inspector, useful for setting up live playback chords Master and soundfont gain levels are in dB Minor UI cosmetic changes |

New track type: 'Rhythm track'. Conversion between rhythm and MIDI tracks added to the track inspector menu New rhythm generator: 'Follow Track' to use another track as the rhythm track New variation: 'Follow Track Rhythm' to map the rhythm of another track to the current track Very precise, monophonic audio-to-MIDI conversion implemented with continuous pitch-bend and expression events Preview implemented for audio to MIDI conversion (both visual and sound) Additional AI service providers added: OpenRouter, Llama, LM Studio. It is possible to use locally installed models (LM Studio) and several free models on OpenRouter Optimized audio waveform rendering which became many times faster for long audio files Pitch bend sensitivity setting added for soundfonts and 'MIDI' instruments in the track inspector 56 soundfont channels can be used 'Minimum' and 'maximum' sliders added to CC lanes to allow quick adjustments of all CC values Bigger font is used for displaying the timecode and bar position when both are displayed Improved MIDI file import allows multiple note ons (overlapped notes) 'Samples' can be displayed as the secondary time format When using "Export as individual WAV/AIFF..." the track index is added to the filename, just in case more tracks have the same name. Fixed: "Export as individual WAV/AIFF..." did not handle solo tracks well It is possible to regenerate the shape only or the rhythm only for the selected phrase generators (with keyboard shortcut) Filtering by key is possible for keyboard shortcuts New menu item: Save as default for 'New Composition' Keyboard shortcut added to show/hide the composite track (Shift-C), and for the Idea Tool 'lightning' button Fixed: audio tracks are not shown in the composite track |

Data locking revisited to prevent deadlocks in the future (substantial changes) Minor UI improvements (pop-up menus replaced with OS-provided pop-up) NeuralNote (audio to MIDI conversion) updated to latest version Fixed: editing note length with the mouse under 'Note Forwarding' did not work properly Fixed a bug which stopped playback during rendering tracks using a 'MIDI' instrument Fixed: tracks using 'note forwarding' are properly updated when pressing 'G' [macOS, plug-ins] Fixed rendering and mouse issues when the render driver was set to 'software' [macOS, plug-ins] Fixed an issue on retina screens when inspectors were opened in a window [Plug-ins] initial window size optimized for the font size used, so that no window would be too small Other stability fixes |

New option in 'Melody Generator v2': 'Use master track scale'. When used, scale relative notes are created from the master track scale, rather than the chord scale Fixed scale lookup in 'Melody Generator v2' and when using 'Auto' scale An issue with random number generation fixed [macOS, plug-ins] Fixed: the 'Save composition?' window made the plug-in host non-responsive Other bug fixes |
| RapidComposer 5.4.1 Nov 10, 2024 |
File search fixed in the file browser 'Clear search' button added to all browsers Recent search items can be cleared in the browsers Improvement: when the search field is closed, the search text is cleared Optimized audio waveform rendering which became many times faster for long audio files Fixed audio display for large zoom ins Fixed crashing bug when assigning a MIDI key as a shortcut Fixed track duplication when soundfonts were used as the instrument [macOS, plug-ins] Fixed: 'Extend composition length?' window made the plug-in host non-responsive |

Audio to MIDI conversion added. Extended audio file support: WAV/AIFF/FLAC/MP3/OGG audio files can be imported. Drag audio files directly to tracks or outside the tracks. One-click replacement of composition chords. Enable the new 'link' button in the progression browser. 'Create composition from progressions' button added when right-clicking on multiple progressions in the Progression Browser with voice leading option. New export option: 'Export phrases from selected track as MIDI...'. Each phrase is written to its own MIDI file which is named according to the phrase name. When dropping an audio or MIDI file that's longer than the composition, you'll be prompted to extend the composition to fit the file. Shortcuts added for 'Convert audio phrases to MIDI', 'Export phrases from selected track as MIDI...', 'Export tracks as MIDI files...' 'Save selected phrases (replace mode)' added to overwrite phrases in the library. 'Set up structure' menu item added in the structure inspector and to master track inspector (with global keyboard shortcut: 'E'). Split phrases at line/part boundaries added to timeline inspector with keyboard shortcut. Improved phrase renaming: use special tokens {chords}, {chordsr}, {chordst}, {line}, {part} when renaming multiple phrases. A new 'info' button explains the usable tokens when renaming phrases or tracks. New setting: 'Line naming' (Auto/Manual). Rename lines is allowed when 'Manual' is selected. Bug fixes and stability improvements. |
