MuLab is an inspiring music production studio for Windows and MacOS also featuring an integrated top-quality modular synth and effect engine.

MuLab is an easy, effective and rock-solid tool designed to create, record, edit and finalize your music.

MuLab 8 features Flexible Audio Sequences, Creative Time Stretching and many more improvements.

Thanks to the new Audio Sequences you can now use samples directly in a composition, without the need to plug in (multi-) samplers and MIDI notes to play them.

Audio Sequences also let you play samples at a different tempo without changing the original pitch. This is done by slicing the sample into discrete audio events and each audio event is time stretched as needed. You have perfect control over the transients, the quantizing, etc. so any piece of audio can be blended into a composition, even if it's at a different tempo, pitch and groove.

The sample events in an audio sequence are not limited to the original sample. You can switch each sample event to play another sample, at another pitch, with another stretch factor. So, for example, you can replace the snares in a sample loop with one of the snares in your sample library, or with a different sound.

MuLab 8 also supports high time stretch factors which let you make new sounds out of sample slices also within the MUX Modular synth and effect environment.

MuTools has updated MuLab and MUX Modular Plug-in to version 8.7.6.

What's changed:

Fixed an unintended nearing expiration issue.
Added support for importing / exporting FLAC files.
New "Note Key Zone Splitter" module.
New "Note On Upon Note Off" module.
New "Note Length Modifier" module which lets you control the length (= note-on and note-off pairs) of note events.

New "MIDI Controller Event Pad" module that can generate a CC event upon note-on and another CC event upon note-off. It can also be triggered from the GUI.
Sequence Player: Improved behavior when used inside a PolySynth.
Improved the Create New Grid popup menu.
Custom Grids: Now supports creating a custom grid from a sequence.
Custom Grids: Now supports drag-drop of a sequence part on the grid editor.
MIDI Controller Event Pad: Module could not yet be added to a MUX front panel. Fixed.
MIDI Controller Event Pad: When changing 'Mode' while latch was on, the GUI did not properly follow. Fixed.
When modulating a gain parameter at audio rate, but the modulator was switched off, this could lead to incorrect behavior. Fixed.
You can now drag-drop an audio part on a sample display. That will reuse the audio stream as a sample.
The Sample -> Replace function did not update the new sample name. Fixed.
When using multi-timbral instruments, the live MIDI input channel was not properly restored after reloading the project. Fixed.

Alt+click a slider or knob now purely sets it to its default value.
Parameter sliders and knobs: Context menu now includes "Reset Value" to set the slider/knob to its default value. (e.g. reset a gain slider to 0 dB).
MuLab for Mac: On Mojave and up, MuLab couldn't access the microphone due to the new MacOS privacy rules. This update now includes support for this microphone privacy setting.
Mac: Command+drag to copy parts or events did not properly work anymore but popped up a context menu. Fixed.
The Note Event Pad now also supports Latch mode: The first note-on will cause a note-on, the second note-on will cause a note-off.
Editing tempo changes did not take the time signature into account. Fixed.
