Which version of ACID Pro is right for you?

 
What's New

• ACID PRO In-App Store - Your shortcut to inspiration: With ACID Pro you get all the sounds, instruments und functions of your choice. Customize your DAW and choose exactly what you've always wanted in the integrated store! Clear and straightforward.
  
• ACID Morph Pads - Experiment with sound in a playful way: The new ACID Morph Pads offer endless possibilities for your sound design. Simply assign audio tracks, instruments or busses to the pad with just one click, morph sounds and effects with various modulations of FX targets, and experiment in a playful way. Smash through creative boundaries with a unique approach inspired by legendary hardware audio effects units.
• Brainworx bx ACID Plug-in Package - The powerful state-of-the-art FX package from Brainworx:
• bx_oberhausen: The bx_oberhausen draws deeply from Brainworx Audio’s extensive experience of working with analog audio equipment to creatively craft world class mixing and mastering plugins. As the cutting-edge company’s highly-anticipated first Virtual Instrument, it effectively revisits an acclaimed analog synthesizer expander module much loved by generations of musicians for its sought-after sound. The sound itself is reliant on fully-analog, discrete circuits and a classic state-variable 2-pole filter. Some of the key features which have never been done before on this synth is a powerful unison mode, M/S Technology and the signature Brainworx Audio Tolerance Modeling Technology (TMT).
• bx_townhouse: Bus Compressor Built in 1978 by the legendary Townhouse studio engineers, this unique compressor was created using console components supplied by Solid State Logic (SSL). The only hardware unit ever made was now perfectly recreated by Brainworx. The bx_townhouse Buss Compressor is the ultimate companion for your mix buss, offering just a touch more vibe and mojo than a standard British console buss compressor. The original unit was built in a time when there simply wasn't an external console buss compressor available for sale, and was used heavily during the 80s and beyond by some of the biggest names in rock, including Queen, Sting, Muse, and many more.
• bx_delay: 2500 The bx_delay 2500 has been developed by Brainworx from the ground up and features a clear, intuitive interface that allows you to get to the delay effect you want quickly. Its glitch-free delays are perfect for automated delay time changes for stunning non-static sounds. bx_delay 2500 has all you need to create everything from simple delay patches to experimental soundscapes and crazy cool beats. This is your new go-to delay.
  
• bx_rooMS: From the masters of mid-side processing, bx_rooMS is a breathtaking reverb and the next frontier in simulation of acoustic spaces and mechanical plates. At its core, it features tons of realism, superb sound quality, and a huge collection of virtual rooms, halls, churches, plates and ambience. But bx_rooMS also empowers you to shape your virtual spaces in unusual and extremely powerful ways, adding mid-side parametric filtering, center-image panning and width control of the reverb's stereo field.
  
• bx_cleansweep PRO: A joystick control, much like an X/Y pad, helped facilitate intuitive and direct movements towards a cleaner sound stage. The bx_cleansweep design, like it’s bigger siblings – bx_digital V3 and bx_hybrid V2, features Anti-Crush technology. This analog model for filter curves prevents the harshness and aliasing found in many other EQs. Now, bx_cleansweep PRO is the third reincarnation of the beloved filter plugin!
• CELEMONY MELODYNE 5 ESSENTIAL - Real-time audio editing: Melodyne 5 essential allows you to edit audio in real time with the highest possible sound quality. Touch notes directly and change parameters such as pitch or timing of vocal recordings and other samples as you wish. The new, fundamentally improved Melodic algorithm makes your vocal edits even better than before. Quickly edit notes to match the song using the Chord Track and create note-based fades in polyphonic recordings and samples with the unique Fade tool. Perfect, natural corrections at the touch of a button - with Melodyne 5 essential, you have complete control!
• Transient detection in the MIDI Playable Chopper Better than ever! The revised MIDI Playable Chopper in ACID Pro 10 lets you play extracted samples, ACIDized loops or your own recordings with any MIDI keyboard and is more intuitive and functional than ever. Packed with the new time-saving Auto Slice function, the Chopper also features a brand-new transient detection feature for Automated Marker Placement.
  
• Create music with new virtual instruments: ACID Pro 10 comes with four brand new virtual instruments:
• 1957 Wooden Clarinet
• Children Choir
• Soloist Collection
• Handchimes, Bells and Glass
• On top of these, you now also have access to all the classic basses and tearing leads you need for electronic music production.
• Brandnew ACIDized loops for your music project: ACID Pro 10 comes with a huge range of fresh loops and one-shot samples, covering a range of music genres including Trap, Reggaeton, EDM, Rock or Score. Load them in, mix them with ease by key and tempo, add effects and sketch out ideas in no time!
