MultitrackStudio

Bremmers Audio Design has released version 4.3 of MultitrackStudio, an audio / MIDI multitrack recording program for Windows.

4.3 features Cycle Recording, this works for both normal and punch-in recording. The punch-in mechanism has been improved: the existing track outside the punch-in region is now audible.

The Pro Plus edition has improved sidechaining capabilities for the Compressor, Dynamics and Noisegate effects. Other tracks can now be used as sidechain trigger source if these effects are used in a track.

Windows Vista WaveRT driver support, which was available as a separate download, is now included.

The new version is available free of charge for users who purchased the program less than a year ago. Older versions can be upgraded for $23 (Professional) or $39 (Pro Plus). A free “lite” edition is also available.

Bremmers Audio Design has released of the 4.0 version of MultitrackStudio, the audio / MIDI multitrack recording program for Windows.

MultitrackStudio, first released in 2001, has been designed with tape-based recording in mind, making it easy to learn, yet powerful. The 4.0 release focuses on working faster, easier and with more power.

Offline mixdown has been added to reduce mixdown times. The Overview Bar makes navigating through the song easier, as do the reworked editors.

Tempo can be extracted from audio or MIDI tracks, provided it contains “beat taps.” Data can be copied from one track to the other using drag-and-drop. Audio to MIDI or MIDI to audio conversion is done automatically if necessary. Audio to MIDI conversion works with monophonic audio only. Instruments like guitars can be tuned using the Tuner effect.

The Pro Plus edition features mixer and effects automation, and a Guitar Amp effect. The Wheel Organ add-on is now included with the Pro Plus edition.

• MultitrackStudio Pro Plus: $119

Requirements: Windows 95/98/ME/2000/XP, 600 MHz CPU
