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.
