What's new

The presets page is now a handwritten setlist: name your tone, press SAVE, and click a tone to play it.

Pay once and keep Rig 1988, with a year of updates. A new (i) button shows what you can click, a new AUDIO key opens your audio settings, and the presets page is easier to use.

Edit every pedal from the full pedalboard view, explore a gentler range of drive, and get clearer help with audio setup and licence activation.

Smoother performance, improved office resizing, and a fix for repeated macOS Keychain password prompts.
