Impressive update to the venerable Acid
I am very impressed by Acid Pro7.0. For the price [...] Direct Box) I believe that Acid Pro 7 is a must have upgrade that makes it a worthy competitor in the DAW market. Its simplicity and ease of use, and at the same time overall robustness are a reminder that a no frills design can increase productivity as I found myself happily zipping along and having everything on the same screen only a click away.
Pros
Uncluttered interface
Best loop stretching in the biz!
Tempo Curves
Real time rendering
Plug In bundle with Garritan, iZotope, etc.
Can use any 3rd party audio editor
Price
Cons
Midi editing not very intuitive
No dedicated audio editor
As a long time Acid user (since ver. 2) I was very interested to see what the software had in terms of updates and improvements. Acid's time stretching and looping tools have always been flawless and in version 6 Sony added multi-tracking capabilities, thus making Acid Pro...
I'm a beginner with this...
Are you a creative musician, who also is a Home recordist? (is there such a word?)
Acid Pro is all you need in my book.
It records audio like an old school multitrack tape recorder.
It inputs midi-files. Wave files, mp3 files, and much more. You can mix them all together!
And it comes with a huge library of Drum, bass, ambient, sound effects, voices, ethnic instruments, loops!
These are in many musical genres.
So you can make a backup band, with real recorded instruments, or any wierd combination you like.
I bought Acid 6 awhile ago, and upgraded to 7.
My experience is from the fostex 4 track days of the 80's.
Those days everything was pretty intuitive.
I then "graduated" to a Roland digi 8track recorder. Brain freeze!
Drum machine, roland keyboard. I had to learn how to play basic chords on the keys, or bass lines etc.
Too much to figure out for my brain. More time figuring out instead of creative juices...
ACID PRO IS THE BEST
I love making music. Acid pro is one [actually, my favorite] music making software.
It's easy to use, and there's nothing wrong with it.
You just drag and drop loops from the program and then eventually - BAM! - you've got a song!
Another good thing is that you can make songs as long as you want and you can save them into Mp3.
I highly recommend this if anyone is interested about making music!
