Release notes
What changed in each Sympose Studio release, stable and nightly.
Sympose Studio ships a stable release every week or two. If you turn on Nightly builds in Settings, you get a new build most days, tested less than stable. Each list below covers one version.
Stable
1.0.4
October 23, 2026
New
- Local file browser with folder search, keyboard navigation, preview playback, and import by Enter or drag-and-drop.
- Load personal samples onto synth oscillators, drum pads, and the sampler.
- Synth modulation across continuous controls, with live visual feedback, broader routing, full-range depths, and improved editing.
- Whole-track duplication and multi-part MIDI import with choices to split or keep parts together.
- DAW-style piano-roll and clip editing, including grid-aware duplication, nudge, snapping, drag-copy, and clip overwrite behavior.
- Plan switching in Studio Settings and launch analytics for acquisition, billing, and agent usage.
Improvements
- Smoother playback during tempo changes and live edits, including continuous held notes while editing unison settings.
- Synth playback now follows the patch’s amp envelope and velocity response; held keys re-attack correctly after preset changes.
- More reliable instrument loading, playback preparation, modulation state, and one-shot sample playback.
- Automation lanes now offer clearer creation and retargeting, with complete parameter ranges and suitable curves.
- Selecting a clip sets the next playback start when looping is off, without interrupting current playback.
- Instrument selector scrolling stays in place while browsing search results or catalogs.
- Mix analysis and export now include every track, prepare instruments independently, and identify tracks that render silently.
- Audio diagnostics now surface render costs and dropout warnings, while spectrum analysis is limited to the focused track.
- Driver and native harness runs are hidden and muted by default.
- Humanize works on dense repeated notes without dropping them.
Fixes
- Loop playback no longer wraps twice or drops notes at the loop start.
- Tempo changes no longer revert after audio edits or lose a later local update.
- Large piano-roll pastes no longer disable Undo for the rest of the session.
- The hidden “Show tracks” control no longer blocks workspace restoration.
- Synth and instrument edits can now be undone and redone reliably.
- Removed the obsolete clipboard status pill while preserving copy and paste behavior.
Nightly
1.1.0-nightly.20261027
October 27, 2026
Highlights
- A refreshed Studio interface makes projects, tracks, clips, instruments, the mixer, and the agent easier to navigate.
- The agent can now start chats with a project picker when no project is open.
- Updates can install quietly in the background, with release highlights shown after updating.
- Undo and redo now preserve every track and clip created by split MIDI imports.
- Agent changes that create tracks and assign instruments can be undone reliably.
New
- “New agent” starts a chat in the current project or opens a project picker when no project is selected.
- Settings, sign-in, plan dialogs, instrument management, and About now use the refreshed Studio design.
- The agent chat has a redesigned composer with project and model pickers, attachment controls, clipboard access, clearer activity rows, and a calmer empty state.
Improvements
- The arrangement has clearer empty states, track controls, automation lanes, clip styling, and New track and Export actions.
- Piano roll, audio editing, and clip inspectors now share a calmer editor layout with clearer audio readouts.
- Synth, sampler, drums, effects, and the Add effect picker use more consistent controls and easier-to-scan layouts.
- The mixer now uses one shared scale, slimmer fader controls, and a clearer master strip.
- Sidebar navigation, headers, status information, dark surfaces, modals, menus, focus states, and keyboard hints now follow a more consistent visual system.
- The Settings sidebar stays aligned with the workspace and can be resized using the same remembered width.
- The synth modulation dot now follows the envelope and LFO curves correctly.
- Add credits opens at its full layout instead of briefly flashing a narrow panel.
Fixes
- Starting a chat without an open project now asks which project to use instead of producing an error.
- Undo and redo now restore all tracks and clips created by a split MIDI import.
- Agent turns that create a track and assign its instrument can now be reverted from Changes.
