Riffer 4:

A MIDI editor tailored for plucked string instruments:

  • Dual View Modes: Seamless real-time switching between Piano Roll and Guitar Tab views — a first of its kind, offering two perspectives for reviewing and editing the compositions.
  • String Visualization System: Strings are now visualized within the Piano Roll, enabling MIDI writing that adheres to authentic plucked instrument techniques — automatically preventing polyphony on the same string and intelligently assigning fingering. The result is MIDI that sounds closer to real performance.
  • Full MIDI Import/Export Compatibility: Whether import external MIDI files or export from Riffer to DAW's MIDI or instrument track, the playback result remains identical and accurate.
  • Intuitive Technique Editing: Easily program fingering, articulation, legato, and expression — no need for cumbersome key switches or complicated MIDI CC programming.

This is a really good take on the amazing Jaco Pastorius sound in the earlier days of his creative run. Whoever did the sampling was deifnitely a fan.
