Features
You Got An Idea - Acid Has The Tools.
ACID Pro 10 is the creative DAW for today's artist and producer. Behind its refined and sleek interface lies a powerful, fully-featured DAW where sophisticated tools sit side-by-side with an easy workflow. 64-bit power allows even the most complex of projects to be handled with ease, while dozens of instruments and effects combine with thousands of ACIDized loops to result in the ultimate DAW for music composition. ACID defined loop-based music production 20 years ago, and now ACID Pro 10 refines it for today's creative musician.
Sampling is just the beginning - Get animated by ACID Pro.
ACID's many features include the Beatmapper and Chopper tools which make sampling and remixing easy. The Beatmapper helps you identify tempo and time signature information from external audio files. Analyze any sample and set up new projects to match its tempo.
Chop up audio samples with the MIDI Playable Chopper and create impressive drum fills, stutters and DJ effects. The combination of MIDI Playable Chopper and Beatmapper make ACID Pro 10 a powerful DAW for everyone who enjoys sample-based music production.
MIDI Playable Chopper
The all-new MIDI Playable Chopper brings MPC-style performance sampling and Hip Hop beat creation to ACID Pro 10. Play samples from loops, beats and from drum kits - perform and record the results as audio events for instant remixing. Packed with the new time-saving Auto Slice function, the MIDI Playable Chopper also features a brand-new transient detection for Automated Marker Placement. It is a perfect way to play around with drum loops and mark them with 8th, 16th or 32th notes. Play, record, jam - ACID is your new performance instrument!
Chopper
Chopper is a tool that allows you to slice and dice an audio file so you can re-order, remix, change its groove and replay it. It creates amazing rhythmic variations of the original audio and you can create many of your own customized samples from one original loop. Chopped events will play in sync with your ACID Pro 10 projects, and you can even use keyboard commands to drop events from the Chopper onto the timeline in real time.
Beatmapper
Beatmapper offers a super fast and slick process to remix music in ACID Pro 10. It identifies the tempo and time signature information in external audio files - including MP3s and complete songs - and allows you to label and edit the file with that information. You can then create Beatmap songs and when other clips are added, they all lock to the tempo of the imported file allowing quick and easy remixing. Beatmapped audio files can also have their tempos and pitches edited for maximum flexibility.
The next generation - In sampling music.
ACID has always used groundbreaking audio technology for producing music, seamlessly allowing you to mix and match sample pitches and tempos.
Now ACID Pro 10 brings the next generation of sampling to the masses with an all-new audio file separation technology.

MIDI - but without the mess - Audio control and MIDI in ACID Pro.
ACID Pro features some incredibly comprehensive, sophisticated and precise MIDI editing features. These include direct MIDI editing of data within the timeline, track freeze to audio, Keyframe automation and flexible drum editing. You get all the MIDI features you would expect from a high-end DAW - but: With user-friendly tools and clear editing environments. MIDI control in ACID is intuitive, fun and hassle free.
Inline Editing
Inline Editing allows you alter MIDI data directly in ACID's timeline within traditional piano roll and drum grid interfaces. You can edit note positions, velocities, pitch bends and controller information all on the main multitrack interface so there's no need to open another edit window.
Drum grid mode
ACID Pro 10 is easy and intuitive: The Drum Grid Mode is the way of editing beats directly on the software's timeline. The grid style edit window shows all the drum parts and you can easily move, add or delete beats.
MIDI track freeze
This allows you to turn MIDI tracks that are being triggered by software instruments into audio. Freezing a track like this means less instruments need to be running in real time so it conserves valuable CPU processing power.
