Acid Pro 7 All Plugins

For those interested in recording electric guitars, the new Input Bus channels will be particular useful, allowing users to take full advantage of the Native Instruments Guitar Combos that are part of the bundled extras. The Twang Combo is one of three supplied with the NI Guitar Combos bundle.

Garritan's ARIA for Acid Pro is also supplied. Submersible Music's KitCore add some very useful drum sounds. The Analog Delay is a highlight of the iZotope Acid Pro Effects Rack. These provide three very decent amp models — AC Box, Plexi and Twang — and each is supplied with a good number of presets. The clean and crunchy sounds are all very useable, although I did find myself taking a little top‑end off some of the high‑gain presets to reduce some of the fizz.

A special version of Garritan's ARIA sample player is also included. This VSTi includes a range of orchestral, jazz/big band, marching band and GM‑type sounds, all subsets of samples taken from Garritan's other products. The player itself is simple but offers some nice features and, although there are not huge numbers of instruments provided, what is here is very good indeed. Everest ultimate edition rapidshare. This includes some nice key‑switched string samples (full strings and sections) and very useable Steinway jazz piano, vintage electric piano and upright bass. The third element of the bundle is the KitCore drum sample VSTi from Submersible Music. This is a cut‑down version of their flagship DrumCore package and it includes a range of different drum kits and MIDI loops taken from the various DrumCore libraries. While it perhaps serves as a taster for the full product, as with ARIA, the basic set of drum and percussion sounds supplied are good.

The final freebie is the Acid Pro Effects Rack from iZotope. This includes a flanger, phaser, 'analogue' delay and dynamics processor, all of which will be familiar to anyone who has used any of iZotope's full products such as Ozone. I particularly liked the delay, which is both well specified (it offers, tube, tape and 'bucket brigade' models), easy to use and sounds great. Sony Acid Pro 7 £250 $315 pros • Project mixing is easier with the new Mixing Console. • The new Input Bus feature makes for a better multitrack audio recording environment. • Includes an excellent bundle of free VST Instruments and effects. • Great fun to use.

Cons • There are still a few MIDI and audio editing refinements that might be added. Summary If your PC music production regularly combines loops, audio and MIDI, Acid Pro 7 provides a very capable DAW environment and is both easy and fun to use.
