ARMED

try anything,
lose nothing.

Every save becomes a version, with a line saying what changed. Two versions of one song can be merged back into one. All on your own disk.

The history.

Hit ⌘S like you always do.

ARMED writes the version and the sentence:

reverb decay 1.2s → 2.4s. drop moved, bar 8 → 12.

The merge.

Two versions. One song.

Live can't. ARMED splices both sets of changes into one.

Nothing is written until you say so.

The shape.

Every dot is a save. A variation leaves the line when you try something, and comes back when it works.

remix faster.
collaborate easier.

Put the risky idea on a variation. Keep it, or bin it.

Two people, two versions, one song — merged back into one.
