Load thousands of songs into your Gig files without depleting RAM resources, removing the ceiling on backing tracks available during a show.

Seamlessly integrate thousands of backing tracks into your gig files while preserving your precious RAM resources. The Streaming Audio File Player plugin, which supports multiple audio formats including MP3, WAV, OGG, and FLAC, lets you switch instantly from one song to another as needed, and, of course, it supports host automation for easy control via Gig Performer widgets.

This new Player offers remarkable playback and intuitive control while your tracks are running.

Load up to 128 standard MIDI files into the MIDI File Player Plugin. Enable or mute individual tracks. Route different tracks to different plugins for the best possible sound. Use Tap Tempo to control playback speed or let the song control Gig Performer’s global BPM.

Organize plugins with custom tags and keywords, to improve workflow and efficiency.

Gig Performer 4.7 provides improved plugin management, enabling keyword tagging for individual plugins and a filtering mechanism to find them instantly. Plugin collections, i.e., those used routinely in setups, can be added as “favorites,” which can then be recalled to quickly recreate sections of a system to streamline workflow with greater efficiency and organization.

Gig Performer’s new wiring view lets you layout your plugins neatly regardless of the size of your screen. Use a large virtual view, zoom in or out and scoll horizontally or vertically to position your plugins wherever you need them without squashing them together.

Gig Performer 4 provides a virtual view allowing you to spread out your blocks and connections to make them easier to see and manage, even if you have a very small screen. You can zoom in or out and you can use the Auto-Fit option to position your blocks to fit in the available space.

Share your most used effects globally and use them from all your rackspaces. Keep your looper or backing tracks running while you change other sounds on the fly. The Global Rackspace™ can pass audio in both directions. Preprocess all incoming audio before adding local effects. Create instruments that are always available.

The Global Rackspace can receive audio from whatever rackspace is currently active. Instead of inserting effects in every rackspace, simply insert them once in the Global Rackspace and all your local rackspaces will have access to them. The Global Rackspace can also send audio to the currently active rackspace. So you can insert a looper that receives audio directly from your guitar (say) and then send the looped audio to different effects in different rackspaces. If a particular instrument such as a piano or organ is needed everywhere (or almost everywhere), put it in the Global Rackspace.

Switch between your rack spaces – INSTANTLY and GLITCH FREE. Easily create variations of your rackspace. Switch between variations seamlessly – even while holding notes.

A new intelligent dialog makes it easy to edit or change previously learned MIDI messages. Easily define multiple MIDI messages to be sent out through MIDI Out blocks.

Select MIDI devices by name. Choose the MIDI message type and adjust the appropriate parameters for the specific type.

Control surface support has been strengthened with the addition of bidirectional MIDI control of widgets on Gig Performer rack panels, and the program now allows programming and transmitting sysex (MIDI System Exclusive) messages, commonly used with hardware synthesizers.
