Gridshift, a project open in the app

Keyboard-First

130+ commands.
One shortcut.

Everything in Gridshift is a keystroke away.

Plugin Strip

See your
whole chain.

Every plugin renders its real interface in miniature, live: spectrum, gain reduction, reverb tails. Read the whole rack at a glance, no windows to open.

Grid Shift

Straight MPC Swing · 58%

The groove
moves the grid.

Pick a groove preset and the grid itself shifts. Snapping, playback and the waveform all stay locked to the same swing. Set it globally or per track.

Step Record

Write music
like text.

Step record from your keyboard. Type to add a clip, backspace to delete, just like text. Audio and MIDI alike.

Advanced Sidechain

Pumping,
with zero latency.

With integrated impulse or MIDI triggers the zero latency lookahead starts the fade just before the hit, so the duck never pops.

Sample Library

Every sample and pattern you import, in one window, with tempo and key detected. On your iPhone too.

Stamps & Pitch Snap

Pick a chord or a figure and place it with one click. Pitch snap keeps every note and every move in key.

Audio to MIDI

Turn a recording into notes, chords included. The model runs on your Mac, and no audio leaves it.

Ableton Live Import

Open a Live Set and Gridshift rebuilds its tracks, clips and arrangement.

Stem Separation

Split any track into isolated stems with a choice of separation models. The set keeps growing.

App Audio Capture

Record the output of any running app on your Mac. No routing, no config.
