Magix releases ACID Pro 11
Is it time to take another look at the classic loop-based DAW
ACID Pro is often viewed as one of the precursors of Ableton Live. However, Magix Acid Pro DAW is still very much in its own right. In fact, it’s just been updated to version 11. Now with Brainworx plugins and MIDI triggering of chopped-up samples.
It is still one of the easiest options if you want to sequence multiple audio loops of differing tempi and pitches, Acid Pro 11 comes with a whole bunch of plugins from Brainworx, including mixing and mastering effects, a vintage-style synth and an automatic tuner. The Morph Pads multi-effect, meanwhile, offers an XY pad for creative sound design.
In addition, there are more Acidized loops, as well, plus an app store that enables you to buy more. Plus, Acid’s Chopper now supports MIDI control, so sample slices can be triggered from your hardware.
It runs on PC and is optimised for Windows 11.
Acid Pro 11 is available on subscription ($8/£6 a month) or in Producer ($199/£149) and Suite ($299/£237) bundles.
