- Polyphonic Legato and Slide Smoother: Enables realistic legato across any interval and speed.
- Drop tuning supported, with lowest note down to D1 .

Riffer 4:
A MIDI editor tailored for plucked string instruments.
- All-new Strumming and Chord System: The innovative “Strum Note” treats multiple sub-notes within a chord as a single editable object, allowing unified control over strum time, velocity gradient, and legato parameters. Combined with authentic guitar fingering settings, this makes strum creation more intuitive and efficient, delivering results that are closer to real performance.
- Dual View Modes: Seamless real-time switching between Piano Roll and Guitar Tab views – a first of its kind, offering two perspectives for reviewing and editing the compositions.
- String Visualization System: Strings are now visualized within the Piano Roll, enabling MIDI writing that adheres to authentic plucked instrument techniques – automatically preventing polyphony on the same string and intelligently assigning fingering. The result is MIDI that sounds closer to real performance.
- Full MIDI Import/Export Compatibility: Whether import external MIDI files or export from Riffer to DAW’s MIDI or instrument track, the playback result remains identical and accurate.
- Intuitive Technique Editing: Easily program fingering, articulation, legato, and expression – no need for cumbersome key switches or complicated MIDI CC programming.
- New MIDI CC and Velocity Editors: View and edit multiple MIDI CC lanes simultaneously with different colors and transparency. One-click CC curve presets allow fast and expressive automation.
- Extensive Riff Library: Hundreds of brand-new riffs to spark creativity and accelerate the workflow.
Strummer:
- Select and detect two chord modes, with the ability to define any custom chord.
- Strum SEQ allows strumming in any rhythm and at any speed.
