Roland Acquires Open Lab’s Stagelight, Launches Zenbeats

Music creation app Stagelight has been acquired by Roland Corporation. With the help of the music tech giant, the Stagelight team has developed a new music creation app called Roland Zenbeats.

The current Stagelight app will be phased out by the end of the year. Roland has a special offer for Stagelight users who switch over during the next three months.

Zenbeats features Roland sounds and a new interface that includes expressive onscreen instruments, 3rd party plugin integration including drag and drop support, collaborative jamming via Ableton Link, streamlined cloud support, and enhanced exporting options.

All Stagelight credits will be honored through December 31st, 2019. Users must spend their remaining credits in Stagelight before making the transition to Zenbeats.
