The optimization of the software is tailored for live looping and performance, offering functionalities that enhance its use as a performance tool. Users find it reminiscent of FL Studio's performance mode, indicating a strong focus on sequencing music and creating songs, though some feel they haven't fully explored its capabilities yet.
“The software is geared more towards live looping and performance, so the functionalities support that.”
“Hopefully you can see here it has very real and exciting function as a performance tool, and this is just the tip of the iceberg from what I can tell (I haven't used it extensively enough to detail its capabilities, but the short of it is you can sequence music and create songs).”
