Monoplugs has updated B-Step Sequencer to v2.1 on Windows, Mac, Linux and iOS.
B-Step VST & AU are now more precise and solid and VST support is significantly improved for hosts like Live, Cubase, Nuendo, Sonar, FLStudio, EnergyXT2, Studio One and Bitwig. For Logic there is now a MIDI FX Audio Unit.
A user can create their own individual B-Step colour theme with the B-ColourStyler or choose one of the preset styles and switch through their favourite ones quickly and easily.
The new B-DataManager is designed to allow simple project and file management. It comes with a couple of bonus features like free downloadable presets and import and export of your projects via text or email. A user can also add preview audio samples and comments to projects and chords, or share work at the B-ProjectRepository.
The user manual embedded inside the program itself, which makes it very easy to get to the right information at the right time, for any feature. It's as simple as dragging the 'Question Mark' to the component a user wants to learn about.
