LowEnd Forge Community Edition is free to download and use.
LowEnd Forge now keeps its bass-transcription workflow intact while resolving optional Microsoft Store metadata from the live catalog.
- The Community workflow still imports local audio, performs bass-stem separation and onset and pitch analysis, and saves the reviewed transcription in versioned .lforge projects.
- Advanced note editing, quantization, MIDI export, and PDF export keep their existing capability boundary; bass-only and no-bass WAV practice exports remain in Community.
- StoreContext accepts only the exact durable add-on ID with non-empty localized catalog metadata, refreshes account ownership after the native dialog, and keeps restore independent.
- The bass separator returns to HTDemucs' native 25% overlap rather than the 75% maximum-overlap pass, removing two redundant inference windows from the five-second release canary while keeping the downstream quiet-note recovery and pitch-guidance stages.
