Although functionally similar to previous versions, it's visually much clearer now, and the refinement of REX file support is very welcome indeed, letting you trigger the single slices of a REX file (forward or reversed) or the whole loop, complete with basic envelope and pitch controls (although only for the entire loop, not per slice). The Studio page is where drum kits are constructed, giving access to a choice of synthesis, samples and REX file import for each pad. You can also set these chains to run sequentially from one to the next, for quick song construction. It enables you to string patterns together in chains, 16 of which can be triggered from the drum pads, facilitating complicated and genuinely spontaneous live arrangement. Next is Sequencer, which has also been enhanced, both visually and functionally, making programming automation (of pad and effects parameters) much easier than before. The first is Main, which mirrors your connected Spark hardware (we're using SparkLE here) with slight improvements on the previous verison (nicer graphics and helpful drum descriptions on the pads). It looks much better, and where there were previously three pages (Project, Kit and Instrument), there are now eight. Most obviously, the GUI has been quite brilliantly overhauled. The classic drum machine kits have always been excellent, the original electronic kits good and the 'real' kits below par, and all of them are triggered and controlled either by your DAW or the software's internal sequencer.
