MusicDevelopments releases RapidComposer v4.0 with introductory offer
16th November 2020
After 12 months of development, the biggest update of RapidComposer is here. A redesigned user interface with docked browsers, improved workflow, revamped rhythm and phrase generators, new Melody Editor, rewritten VST/VST3/AU plug-ins, and folder tracks are just a few of the new features.
Intro Offer: Get 25% discount if you purchase RapidComposer v4.0 before November 29 (full edition for $149, light edition for $59).
Highlights:

- Browsers are docked on the right side, file browser added.
- Melody Editor tab added for motive development, melody generation and editing.
- All rhythm and phrase generators were revamped.
- New rewritten VST2, VST3 and AU plugins. The plug-ins are self contained, so they do not use the main application. You can use soundfonts in the plug-in.
