Open Labs has announced StageLight 4, an update to its flagship, easy-to-use, music creation software.
The new version features SampleVerse (a powerful sampler instrument), MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) with touch controls and a new platform addition with iOS support.
“StageLight 4 is our most significant release yet,” said Cliff Mountain, Open Labs’ CEO. “We all have the ability to be creative. StageLight 4 gives everyone an easy introduction to creating music along with new innovative features. We can’t wait to hear what our customers make with this one!”
SampleVerse – New Sampler Instrument
StageLight 4 includes the brand new SampleVerse, a hybrid sampler and synthesizer instrument, to bring revolutionary new sounds to the mix. Play, arpeggiate, pulse, shift and filter sounds with complete touch screen control. Scroll through dozens of new preset instruments or dive into its unique workflow to create new blends of samples like never before in StageLight. The deeper a creator dives into SampleVerse the more control they’ll find. Sample any sound with automatic pitch detection and correction. SampleVerse gives everyone the power to design and combine unique sounds on any device.
MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) – Enhanced Expressiveness
StageLight 4 adds full MPE support. MIDI Polyphonic Expression blurs the boundaries between keyboards and stringed instruments. You can now control multiple parameters (pitch, bend, timbre) of every single note separately. With MPE and StageLight, all touchscreen devices transform into expressive instruments that anyone can play.
iOS Support – Cross-Platform Support
By adding StageLight to the App Store on iOS, Open Labs has connected every major platform together in a seamless user experience. Creators can now begin a song on their mobile device, regardless of platform, and finish it on their Windows PC or Mac computer.
