Please note that while AutoPad is highly versatile, it is important to understand its intended use before making a purchase. The pad sounds are primarily designed to be played softly and continuously in the background while live musicians perform. These sounds include the root, fifth, and octave, allowing them to be used in both major and minor contexts. For example, in worship music, it is unnecessary to change the pad with each chord change. If your song is in the key of E, you can simply play a pad in E throughout the song duration.

To learn more about how to use AutoPad effectively, please consult the manual. Additionally, you can access a range of helpful tutorials on the official YouTube channel.

Please be aware that while AutoPad supports the import of files of any length, it has real-time memory restrictions. Therefore, for files longer than four minutes, AutoPad only loads a 3.5-minute subsection and applies a short fade to eliminate pops. For further details, refer to the manual.
