Geist is a fast, intuitive software drum machine designed to create evolved beats and grooves, freeing you from the limits of pre-packaged loops and over-complicated DAWs. Geist fuses creative sample-sculpting tools with fast pattern step-sequencing and arrangement. Browse through sounds with lightning speed, slice and assign loops to pads with a single click; sample, resample and build beats in a slick unified environment.

Some new features:

- 64-bit support for MacOSX and Windows. When running a 64-bit host on a 64-bit operating system, Geist now appears as a native plugin so it is no longer necessary to use bit-bridges in such systems.
- Guru import improved – envelopes and tuning settings should be a lot closer now.
- Multiple spitters in a project should work correctly now.
- Dragging patterns out as midi should now give accurate results in so far as the graphs to CC's behaviour.
- Reverse and looping/gated modes now functioning correctly – with or without timestretch.
