Improved
- Sound & Effects and Mixer adapt to panel size - knobs and strips shrink to fit a short panel and grow to fill a tall one
- Beat Grid scrolls instead of squashing pad rows when the panel is short
- Muted tracks are greyed out - this also applies to tracks silenced by another track's solo
- MIDI riffs and chords start on their first note - empty lead-in bars are removed when added
- MIDI loops come out at clean lengths of 1, 2, 4 or 8 bars
- MIDI riffs dropped on an instrument track leave out their drum part instead of playing drum hits as wrong notes
- Tour and walkthrough cards sit right next to the feature they explain, with an arrow pointing at it
- The session carries on when the host leaves - another player takes over
- Leaving asks Save & leave, Leave without saving or Stay
- Joining a session saves your own song to your projects first
- Live sessions use less CPU - the song is only checked for changes after an edit, not 5 times a second
- Store listing now shows Studio Box as 1-4 player co-op
- The mouse wheel over a knob scrolls the panel unless you rest on the knob first
Fixed
- Fixed a crash (IndexOutOfRangeException) in the delay effect
- A missing sound file no longer floods the console with hundreds of warnings; the preview stops right away instead
- Developer console commands no longer work in the published game, so other players can't rename your tracks or change your tempo
- Fixed a leftover UI reference after leaving play mode
- Browser no longer overlaps its own icons when the editor panel is made tall
- Long sound names no longer run into the length or BPM label in the browser
- Mixer track names showed as "..." - they now display properly
- Status bar velocity now matches the velocity box
- Tracks added during a session no longer disappear
- Joining a session no longer mixes your old tracks into the host's song
- A sound you play across the keys is now sent to friends in a session and included in share files
Removed
- Removed an unused duplicate scene (mp.scene)
Known Issues
- MIDI keyboards can't connect directly - s&box has no MIDI device support, so controller mode needs a key-mapper app (e.g. MidiKey2Key)
- Controller mode plays every note at the on-screen velocity, and the controller's knobs and joystick don't do anything
- MIDI import has only been tested with simple test files - files exported from other programs may split their parts differently
- Join only lists sessions hosted by your Steam friends
- Live sessions have only been tested on one PC so far, not between two players on different machines
- Your saved kits and instruments stay on your PC - friends hear them in a session, but they aren't added to their own My Kits or My Instruments.
Hotfix 10/6/26
Oct 7, 2026
Fixed
- Update – Piano Roll Crash Fixed
- I noticed some players were running into errors and did a deep dive to track down the cause.
- It turned out that moving a selection of notes that was wider than the current loop would crash the piano roll (and sometimes the whole tool). This could happen when:
- Selecting a group of notes that spanned more time than the loop
- Having a single note longer than the loop
- Shortening the loop after notes were already placed
- Dragging notes while the loop was shorter than the selection
- The fix now checks whether the selection actually fits inside the loop first. If it doesn’t, the notes simply won’t move instead of crashing.
Known Issues
- There are no known issues remaining with this update applied. Thanks for the reports and keep the tunes coming!
