  • The Limitation: After 20 minutes, the sound cuts out for 2 seconds.
  • Is this a dealbreaker? For live performance, yes. For studio production? No.
  • The Workaround: Load the demo on a return track. Bounce (render) your MIDI to audio within the first 19 minutes. If you need to tweak the sound, reload the project and bounce again. Many budget producers have finished full albums using this method, treating the "cut out" as a reminder to print the audio.
