Sony Media Software has announced the availability of ACID Pro 6 ($499/£285).
A significant upgrade to the professional music creation and production application, ACID Pro 6 software includes new multitrack recording and MIDI capabilities, transforming the software into a full-featured professional digital music workstation.
ACID Pro 6 software provides professionals with new ways to record, produce, mix and arrange audio and music compositions, far beyond the capabilities found in prior versions. The upgraded multitrack recording and MIDI sequencing platform allows you to create music using a fast, efficient and easy-to-master method that produces impeccable results, says Sony.
In addition to its significantly expanded feature set and new high-performance multi-threaded audio engine, ACID Pro 6 software also reflects enhancements in Sonys ongoing relationship with Native Instruments, creator of state-of-the-art soft synths and samplers. ACID Pro 6 software includes Native Instruments KOMPAKT Sony ACID Pro Edition, a configurable sample playback engine that includes a custom sound library assembled by Native Instruments specifically for ACID Pro 6 users.
Multitrack audio and MIDI recording lets you simultaneously record multiple tracks of audio and MIDI into the ACID timeline through a variety of methods, including step recording, punch in/out, continuous looping and more, while multiple media files per track lets you layout multiple media files per track, including one-shots, Beatmapped events, loops and disk-based files with new automatic crossfade capabilities.
MIDI data can now be manipulated directly on the ACID timeline, using either a piano roll or a drum grid interface. Edit all note position, velocity, pitch bend, and controller information using an easy, visual approach in the main multitrack interface. ACID Pro 6 now also provides processing of MIDI data directly on the timeline, including quantisation, swing, editing of velocity values, event duration changes, and more.
Using automation envelopes, ACID Pro 6 software provides increased mixing flexibility for VST instrument parameters, and the Drum Map Editor provides an intuitive way to create custom Drum Map templates, to make working in the Drum Grid even easier. ACID Pro 6 software now provides for the creation of project sections that lets you more efficiently rearrange time-based segments of audio and MIDI events located across multiple tracks.
ACID Pro 6 allows for hands-on mixing using external hardware control surfaces. Control record, transport, envelopes, faders, mutes, solos, pans, and effects automation. It includes native support for the Mackie Control Universal, however the generic control interface option allows user-customisable mapping of up to five generic control surfaces. Finally, the new multitrack workflow provides you with the ability to monitor audio signals with real-time track effect DSP during recording sessions.
