Page locking helps prevent accidental edits during performance. ◆ Three Playback Modes Set the best playback behavior for each pad: • Polyphony: Layer ambience, BGM, and sound effects. • Monophonic: Switch cleanly between single audio sources. • Crossfade: Smoothly transition between BGM tracks with adjustable fade duration. Tap actions can be set to retrigger from the beginning or toggle pause/resume. ◆ Fully Customizable Pads Customize each pad with a display name, button color, loop setting, and volume gain from 0.1x to 1.0x. Clear names and colors help reduce mistakes during tense sessions. ◆ Direct Import and Cloud Support Import audio through the standard Share menu, Google Drive, Dropbox, or ZIP files.
