A brand new set of 15 photos from a recent bothying trip have been added to the Photography section of the site.

The Track Scopes and Spectrum panel allows you to examine audio signals in real-time by providing two different visual representations of your song.

Doofers enable the bundling of complex effect chains within a single device and provide easy access to the most useful parameters through macros. Automating a macro will change the values of all assigned parameters.

By placing markers onto a sample it can be sliced up. Those slices can then be used as if they were individual samples themselves. This process is non-destructive because the original sample is left untouched.
