Sound Sources and Sample Library

The instrument's samples are drawn from Mura Masa's session archives and include both released and unreleased material, according to the developer. The bundled sets cover percussion, bass, synth and effect-style sounds, with 112 percussion samples across eight banks.

Each sample can be assigned to one of the 14 white keys and triggered individually. Key selection and sample randomise features help you find variations quickly, and samples stay synced to the host tempo.

Workflow, Sequencing and Editing

The main page handles playing and phrase launching. Black keys launch phrases or adjust properties, while four macros (Terminal, Peek, Angle and Side) shape the sound in real time. Five factory modifiers, including half-time, double-time, reverse and octave shifts, plus five custom modifiers for triggering sequences, add rhythmic variety.

The Edit page exposes sample-level controls such as playback direction, playback modes, playback speed, four choke groups, attack, release, pitch and formant. Five main effect parameters (Speaker, Reverb, Mod, Lo-Cut and Hi-Cut) give you control over the tone of the output.
