Wird besser und besser…

Tolles UI und tolle Features um Songs unterwegs zu kreieren.
Sogar mit nur einer Hand. Der Road Plan
sieht interessant aus. SAND hat definitiv Potenzial.
Was mich noch nervt ist, dass jedesmal die Record Funktion anspringt sobald man in das Midi Instrument oder sein geladenes FX geht.
Und das SAND keine Einstellung hat: SAND Immer in der Übersicht öffnen.

Scheint auch stabiler geworden zu sein.

Is SAND compatible with other music apps?

SAND can sync with other music production apps and DAWs using Ableton Link. This allows for seamless integration and collaborative workflows with your existing music setup.
