What's New in MetaGrid Pro 1.7

By The MetaGrid team

MetaGrid Pro 1.7 is our biggest release yet — a new way to build grids, deeper Cubase integration, and a smarter setup flow. Watch the full tour above, then dig into the highlights below.

AI Builder

The headline feature. Describe the layout you need in plain language — "a mixing layout for Logic with transport and eight track faders" — and AI Builder assembles the buttons, macros, and pages for you.

It's grounded in your real setup: AI Builder only proposes actions that map back to commands your software actually exposes, and labels everything Verified or AI suggested so you always know what's real. Nothing is locked — every generated grid stays fully editable.

Cubase Plugin Manager

Browse, favorite, and load any Cubase plugin straight from your iPad. The Plugin Manager surfaces your full plugin library on the grid, so you can drop an insert or send without diving through Cubase's menus.

A smarter MetaServer setup

Integrations are now handled directly by MetaServer on your Mac or Windows machine. It detects the DAWs, automation tools, and companion apps you already have installed, connects to them, and keeps everything in sync — no config files to copy, no manual setup.

Get 1.7

MetaGrid Pro 1.7 is available now. Update from the App Store, and grab the latest MetaServer from the Download page. As always — back up your database before any major edits.
