I LOVE Acid Pro, and am incredibly jealous that you're beta testing right now. It's easy to resize any of the Windows on the main screen, to fit your own workflow. The ability to copy the sample (along with all the volume lines, pan lines), then paste it repeatedly on the same track. 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. 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 pencil tool, which allows to easily paint a sample on to a track, or erase parts of the same sample. Easy to audition WAV or MP3 samples in the Explorer window. I've read that Acid 7 has some midi sync problems, but don't have any experience with it myself. 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 really want to get back to working with a DAW again, so I can incorporate more live instrument tracks and VST instruments too, and would love to use Acid Pro 8 for that. I kind of gave up on DAWs over the last 10 years, and have just been writing and tracking everything on hardware. I tried Pro Tools, but had lots of problems with it. Or sometimes I will take a longer section of a song that I want to load in my hardware (like a full intact drum loop, or other instruments), and use Acid to zoom in and set the exact start point and end point that I want to work with, then truncate the rest out. I mostly use Acid now to cut up drum loops into single hits, then load them into my hardware samplers. I used to just use the pencil tool to draw them all in where I wanted them.Īfter a while, I bought some nice hardware samplers, and my workflow with Acid changed. I liked to use Acid to audition my own samples from WAV or MP3, edit them, layer them, then arrange them into whole songs. I never really used the loop libraries, except for the first couple songs when I was learning. When you say "Please don't get over excited, Version 8.0 is meant to be an emergency reboot", do you mean that not many changes have been made for V8? I just recently got V7, but haven't spent much time with it yet. The last versions that I used extensively were V2 through V4. I am really looking forward to Acid Pro 8.
