What’s new

Version 5.01 · Updated October 26, 2026

• Studio Mix: Console (with REEL, a studio tape machine), Room, Punch, 11 more chains and DAW automation. Listen before you buy; one purchase unlocks it in every Lumbeat app • Effects redesigned: new compressor, visual EQ, tempo-synced delay, limiter and 4 one-tap mix chains, with ‹ › to step through them, Bypass and Revert • Mixer: one SEND knob per track, level meters on the faders, and a button to maximize the mixer or the effects • MIDI controls: MODE # switches between Live Pads, Song and Sound Module; FILL ON CHANGE ON / OFF, ignored when already in that state; new END and END NO CRASH, one last hit on the next downbeat, then stop (no fill) • iPhone: the mixer's corner button turns it sideways, and the sideways mixer and drum kit have their own Play button • Live Pads remember Cross / Snare and Ride / Hats, also when you change them while the pad plays • SAVE lights up after toggling Cross or Ride on a saved rhythm, and saves that version as a new rhythm • Song Parts: new CROSS button next to RIDE, to play a part with cross-stick • Plug-in: Play and FILL ► after a stop come back in on the rhythm's own bar when its time signature differs from the host's (a 3/4 waltz in AUM) • Plug-in: steadier playback when you move the playhead, bounce from mid-song or rewind in the DAW • Live Pads: long press a pad to CLEAR it, or drag it to move or swap it. New sets go to the end of the list, so set numbers never shift • Songs can now be sent to Rock Drum Machine • Received grooves: with Jam up, Funk Drummer re-plays them in its own style • Performance and bug fixes
