What's New in Cue8
1.1.0
September 15, 2026
BAS and SYN now play triplets. Open the GRID page, pick TRIPLET, then choose 6, 12, 24 or 48 steps. The new TIMING tab nudges any BAS or SYN step earlier or later, and GROOVE SEND lets them ride the master groove. BAS gets an OCTAVE tab. The bass engine hits harder and the bass presets were retuned by ear. ACCENT no longer changes BAS and SYN levels. Note names follow your key. MIDI export carries triplets, timing and groove. Projects saved in earlier versions can sound different on BAS and SYN. Update Cue8 on all your devices before opening projects that use TRIPLET or TIMING. Fixes. BAS and SYN sends at zero are fully dry, and changing steps or resolution stops playback cleanly.
