What’s New: A major workflow update focused on faster creation, live remixing, and smarter capture, with powerful new integration and meaningful performance improvements for larger projects. - Performance Mode: A live remix layer with MIDI effects such as stutter, repeat, and hold, allowing you to transform the output of all tracks simultaneously. Designed for improvisation and transitions. (Long-press SNG to toggle) - Song Mode Update: Cleaner visuals and a more fluid “build while you play” workflow for arranging without breaking creative flow. - Macro XY Pads (Global & Per-Track): Expressive XY pads that control multiple macros at once. Use momentarily for transitions (snap back on release) or lock for deeper sound design. Includes capture functionality to reassign target CC values and reset macros. (Long-press CC while a profile is loaded) - Immediate Ableton Live Integration (New): Prism works as a natural extension of Ableton Live via a dedicated control script. Instantly control Ableton macros directly from Prism Automatic mapping of the first 16 Ableton tracks Auto-captures track names, macro names, and drum pad names Per-track control of velocity and pan Automatic track color syncing Channel alignment is handled automatically in Ableton based on track order. For seamless play, simply set each Ableton track to Monitor: In as you add it. (Enable in Prism: Settings → Ext Control → Ableton) - Capture Button (New): Located next to Copy and Paste in the top bar. Instantly create a new memory instance (scene, pattern, or sound) from your current state so you can experiment freely while preserving the original. Double-tap for a smart, context-aware capture action. - Restore Deleted Trigs: While holding Capture, the last 16 deleted trigs appear on empty pads—tap any pad to restore. - Advanced Retroactive MIDI Capture: Phrase-based capture (up to 16 bars) with automatic phrase detection after a bar of silence. Capture from live input, pre-FX sequence, or post-FX output. Overwrite, merge, or add to a new pattern or lane, and select the exact region using the piano-roll view. - Rapid MIDI Import: Faster loading of drum and tone MIDI files for quick experimentation with large libraries. - True Multi-Port MIDI Output: Improved routing for advanced setups and DAWs such as Cubasis. - Looper Enhancements: Traditional bar-based looping plus a new page-based looping option. Sequencer shifts and drum randomization now apply directly to looped regions, making remixing faster and more playable. - Rhythm-Only Paste: Apply the rhythm of copied material to existing notes without changing pitch—ideal for fast groove exploration. - Performance & Stability Improvements: Better handling of projects with heavy MIDI CC usage Improved stability and performance when running in Loopy Pro Smoother transitions when switching between graphics-heavy views Overall improvements to CPU efficiency and MIDI processing

Hold shift and press the full screen button that appears beneath the main sequencer trigs. Slim Sequencer View: Drag to a narrow layout for a 32-step view that sits alongside your AUv3 plugin. Sequence and tweak at the same time. Draw Your Own LFO Shapes: Draw LFO waveforms freehand. Link the cycle to your sequence length and set loop count — great for risers and sweeps that stay locked to your pattern. Smoother Pattern & Scene Switching: Patterns and scenes transition musically now, whether quantized to bar or not. Long-press to preview a pattern or scene, release to snap back. Drum Randomization: Randomize a full pattern or just a section. Pick a genre preset, remix what's there, or go fully random. GM Drum Type Tagging: Assign a standard GM Drum type to each pad. Randomization and MIDI drum imports use these to map correctly. Chromatic Drum Keyboard: Cycle and layer drum pads on a single sequence with the keypad note button. Stack multiple pads, multiple hits per trig, full chromatic range at any position. Melt Capture: Hit capture on a melting track to write the results into the sequence. Step FX + Melt Mode: Step FX now works on melting tracks. Drum Layering & Sidechaining: Layer pads with per-pad velocity offsets. Sidechain support for drums added.
