    OVERALL OPINION

    5-6 years since I use acid (beginning with version 2) I have many innovations apprci Submitted on version 4 (c'tait enjoyable to have the will integrate pm)

    l but frankly I think it's foutage Geul, must wait three years (the v4 was released in 2002) to have amliorations "logical" (rewire (not work well, like any sync with acid) compatibility VST etc ...), a lot of unnecessary Gadget (function "multi groove," media manager (which delayed the startup of the application which does nothing)) and the same problem of bug.

    short, the only things that are worth it to the integration of VST plugin, the possibility to make envelopes on bus (WITHOUT A BUG OR NOT SAVE) and the possibility of cr er tracks "folder" where you can insrer multiple tracks to group their display, mute, etc ...

    which is not much

    otherwise, we can still save multitrack (who said that an equivalent c'tait software cubase or protools ?????).

    and I have still not found a way to connect a Controller (which is essential now (I think))

    in brief: APRS output live 4 this year, the new version is really bad acid!

    thank you sony!!

    No single installation problem.

    The big Czech this app is the MDIA manager: useless, heavy, slowing Whereas the boot (more than 30 seconds to my collection of 10,000 samples "), and installing a lot of crap from home derrire by Microsoft. I uninstalled everything and I is much better: more slow, more than Microsoft SQL manager to Get You Started with the Systm ...

    Trs full manual as always ... Previous virtually copied on, which is normal because one of the strengths of Acid is that innovations are "invisible" and that the interface remains the same since version 1 ... Never change a winning team.

    SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

    Dell Inspiron 9100, PIV, 3.2 GHz, 1GB RAM, Windows XP SP2, audio interfaces: Novation X-Station, M-Audio FW1814 or Event Electronics EZBus as appropriate ...

    No problem running, no crash, except sometimes impossibility to start playing a song when I use ACID Ableton Live at the same time. C'tait apparently the driver of the asio Xstation who behaved badly with SP2, now I put days and it is impeccable.

    Always excellent performance. Unlike the previous ones opinion, in five years of heavy use I have never seen Acid plant or behave strangely ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have 5 years.

    It's not a squenceur which compares Cubase, Sonar or Pro Tools, it is not for a, do not confuse everything.

    I use it for loop-based composing. And it is unbeatable! Rsultats own productivities lightning, incredible power functions of loops edition ... When connate keyboard shortcuts is a drug.

    And once the completed song a couple of tracks recorded Manir classic poses no problem ...

    With version 5, the MIDI is finally usable and VSTi compatibility has opened doors. Before c'tait dj happiness today is ecstasy. I use to compose and intensment ACID Ableton LIVE for scne ... My fantasy would be to make the transfer more ais a soft one.

    Although it is a soft sr a bit expensive but it's not a scandal. I bought my ds reu annona the mail the new version, and it again for version 6. I would do without this choice hsiter.

    Version 5 has really reassured with the acquisition by Sony, because I feared the worst about other products I found that this brand could really make fun of the mouth of the consumer. But for now my fears were unfounded t. Version 5 includes dozens of small amliorations, not a big rvolution but ACID is a mature soft for a long time, you should not expect a total change. We could all rl.

    In the box, I find the CD, the manual in English and French.
    The installation went smoothly, just follow the instructions.
    The software registration is done online in minutes.

    No surprise on the interface that I already know well.

    SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

    Everything works with my configuration. (EMU 1820 card, 1.2 GHz Proc, 256MB)
    The software is very stable. No crash found despite hours spent on it.

    The interface is clear and it is a pleasure to deal with this tool.

    I'm using Acid since version 3.

    It's really easy to use and a formidable power.
    I use it a lot to make the soundtrack for the video and CD ROM.
    I'm not a great musician and Acid really helps me go further.

    The tempo of automatic saves me a lot of time.

    My machine would need a little more power to take advantage of the "media manager" but
    that provides a comfortable sort and search very interesting.

    Acid I recommend for all creators of music for the remix and especially for the illustration.

    - What is the particular feature you like best and least?
    I love the most: the theoretical contributions of the new version (VST support, etc.).
    what I like least: its instability!!

    It's crazy to have a product so promising, filling all the gaps in its prdcsseurs without thinking one second dvelopper a stable release!

    I'm using Acid since version 2 and 5 is the coming of age even more powerful and incredibly simple little will go a long way with logiciel.Dans hip hop up to the base of loops c coupled to a feast of MPC is really plaiz.
    I also think acids is intended to be used in artistic creation but if c of the recording and mixing you want then head to Nuendo or Pro tools.Et so each place ....

    SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

    With my 1G of Ram P4 2.8GHz and u, all is well.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I found it not too expensive (269) by buying it, but when I opened the bote, then I found carrment cheap. Judge plutt; Frun are in the bote:

    ACID *
    * A sample CD
    * 1 CD effects spciaux wonderful and good qualitbr /> * XPRESS Keyboards (Allgemeine version, ie with less presets, the B4, FM7 and PRO53 home NI)>> value: 99
    * AUDIO STUDIO (version dj Allgemeine but enough to complte SoundForge 8)>> value: 70

    Forcment So, it's really a good package.

    I like Acid a lot but I wish they would add control surface support and same track recording. You can render and bounce to one track which helps but that will only take you so far. I hear they are adding these features in 6 however.

    250

    Very easy to use. Easiest program on the market. I learned Acid before anything else on the market and I never read the manual until recently to see if I was missing out on any features. If you can play a cd player you can make classics with Acid.

    Its a Daw you get out what you put in.

    Have never had a issue with Acid quality wise and Ive been using it since 2001.
