Bounce with Me.
Build up your song with more tracks.
At first glance, you might think 5 Moons 'only' has five tracks. But once you bounce down those five tracks to the first track of a new song, you'll have 4 more tracks to add to it!
Once those four new tracks have audio, bounce down again and you'll have another four new more tracks to play with! ...and on and on until your masterpiece is complete.
File Freedom.
Disk Mode makes it easy to transfer files to your DAW.
The USB-C port is used for both power and data transfer. Connect to your computer and copy your recordings for posterity and/or additional editing.
