It would really simplify my workflow if I could do all the stuff I described above, as well as sync all my hardware to it with midi and track into it. I've read that Acid 7 has some midi sync problems, but don't have any experience with it myself. Easy to audition WAV or MP3 samples in the Explorer window. The pencil tool, which allows to easily paint a sample on to a track, or erase parts of the same sample. I like how precisely I can edit the samples after zooming in (pencil tool, erase tool, adjusting the start point, drawing volume lines or pan lines, etc.) The ability to zoom way in or out on the track window. The ability to easily grab the sample and move it a few milliseconds forward or back, in order to line it up with other events in the song. The ability to copy the sample (along with all the volume lines, pan lines), then paste it repeatedly on the same track.

It's easy to resize any of the Windows on the main screen, to fit your own workflow. I LOVE Acid Pro, and am incredibly jealous that you're beta testing right now.
#How to use acid pro 8 pro#
I've been using Acid Pro exclusively for the last 15 years, and absolutely love it over a lot of other DAWs I've tried. I LOVE being able to drop an mp3/mp4/wav into acid, have the beatmatcher come up, beatmatch my sample to the grid.
I love being able to quickly pitch samples up/down using the +/- buttons, and also LOVE the Acid Types (Loop, One Shot, Beatmatched), and the options within Beatmatched to stretch things using the Elastique/Pro settings (sounds reallllly good) when stretching. I also love the "preserve formants while pitching" option for creating some cool effects on pitched samples. I love being able to Bus tracks together, put FX on those busses, as well as put FX on individual tracks. I love the shortcuts for reversing tracks "simply press U". In addition to 64bit power and VST3 support I WOULD LOVE to see: I love the multitrack recording features in Acid 7, being able to record 16+ tracks at once. A beat quantizer more like Abelton's, where everything just 'clicks' in to the correct beat.
The Beat Mapping system is close, but could use a little work. Using a mouse to zoom/scroll up/down/left/right is easy and intuitive, but using a trackpad makes for strange commands - ie, "Zooming" on a track pad (like you would zoom in on a photo on an iPhone) scrolls Up and Down, rather than zooming in and out.
#How to use acid pro 8 upgrade#
Thank you for caring about Acid Pro! I've been waiting on a 64bit upgrade since Windows 7 came out and am SO excited about this!!! If you need any other beta testers I would LOVE to help out. #MAGIX ACID PRO 7 UPGRADES TO ACID PRO 8 UPGRADE# I've made every song I've ever done on Acid Pro, including creating, recording, mixing, and mastering this entire album -Īny benefits over ableton?Workflow ect?From my limited experience with Ableton about 10 years ago, it was not very similar to Acid Pro.Īcid Pro has more similarities with current versions of Pro Tools and Reaper, if you are familiar with those.Īcid is an excellent tool for sample based production, but can also do other things well, like record live audio tracks and midi.
