When recording, how I just use one wave line in the center instead of two lines? When I record mono the sound is recorded either on the top line or in the bottom line and in stereo, it uses both lines. I have seen tutorials in which they show the recorded wave in the center.
In all the videos that I’ve seen of acid, I haven’t seen anything related to accessibility for blind people. When it was cakewalk, Sonar, or the other mutation it has undergone, we used to be able to manipulate it with ease. Do we have those choices in this new acid??
Thank you ! I wish there would be more AP8 tuts available on the net. BTW: If this video used Text to Speech software for the narration, i really would like to know which software that was; although abit robotic sounding, i do like it very much.
You can not import mp4 videos. In acid pro 7 you can. I used that feature, to crop out certain sounds in movies, like fx, or vocal samples, phrases from movies. I have Magix Vegas 14, I can that in the video editor, it doesn't matter to me, but it's just another step for tracking on the fly.
can somebody help? it keeps streching my audio to match the speed of the song, but its REALLY bad at it. it speeds it up or slows it down like crazy and i cant figure out a way to fix it.
Does anyone else have an issue with tooltips not showing up on mouseover in this program? I can't find a single discussion about this anywhere, and it's really causing problems while learning the software. They show up occasionally, for some buttons, but it's entirely inconsistent which ones they'll show up for, for how long, and when.
PLEASE someone make a tutorial on how to use the Freedrum AcidPro kit..Not everyone who buys the kit is a music software and production graduate with all this MIDI and DAW etc...I'm just a drummer who wants to go off and not piss the family off on my real kit. Computer programs equal ancient Egyptian script to me...HELP
I'm a Sony Acid 7 user. In Sony Acid 8 there is nothing new. The midi chanel stil clips. They haven't fixed it. No option for side chain. Side chain is omportant to produce quality of music. They have ignored all these main problem.
bai thank you for replying. No is not that they don't know. Based on common sence they do it in purpose. Based on my reaserch and own conclusion. They lost the old Sony Acid and Sony vegas users. No one is buying the upgrades. So they came up with the idea to change the look and call it "The come back" to trick the new users. I'm a Cubase, Reason and FL studio user. Acid is way behind. Magix is killing Sony Acid. If developers put hard work on Soy Acid. Sony Acid would become powerful amongst its competitors.
Rofas Colas is right. I have been using acid since Acid Pro 4 . I am still using 7 and is identical to 8. Sidechaining is possible if you assign buses like A , B ..etc to individual channels and then use a sidechain compressor. However it is super counter intuitive and it slows down the workflow like hell. The sound engine, the main compressor is still the same ...and unfortunately it sounds awful. My old acid projects won't fully load as various pieces are not recognized by 8. It's just a huge let down, i have been using their product for almost 2 decades, and still...they give nothing back. The good thing is that after years and years of just waiting ...this release convinced me to move to ableton 10 ...and boy am i happy !
@tweaksism i totally agree, its just acid pro 7 with a new skin, so disappointed considering magix is known for their amazing sound engine in seq and samplitude, they really have done nothing and i feel like ive been ripped off for buying it. Plus its buggy.
I really need to learn how to speak like this more than I need to learn about acid pro which i have been using since ph1. i didn't really rate acid pro 8 and so I am now unsure about getting 10. acid 7 was best release imo. by that point sony had took over from sonic foundry and took all the bugs out from the stuff they added in 5 and 6..acid pro 8 was a real let down for me losing all sonys plug ins, colour fixed to dark and then crashes all the time so I went back to acid pro 7.. dunno why i even bothered with 8 as nothing new was added to it. it claimed to add beatmapper and 64 bit surround sound and support for vst but all of this was already in acid 7.. i didn't see anything in this video that wasn't already in acid pro 7. don't waste time with acid pro 8. skip this version and go straight to 10.. or find a copy of 7..would love to try acid 10, but not willing to take risk when i have a version that works fine..
Acid Pro 8 has a problem, it does not allow import of mp4. I make video for my tracks and import the video into Acid to line up video and music track. Any video has to be in AVI, I still kept Acid Pro 7, which it imports mp4 just fine.
ACID as other ex-Sony products needs the install of the plugin that makes you read and make the codec of mp3 and mp4. You may need to reinstall it or ask for support or, if you are lucky, it gets unlocked on its own as you work with it.
Fuck Acid I was thinking about getting this just for the hell of it but wanted to call technical support first because even in the demo version when I went to save a session it said “temporary directory is low on space” and wouldn’t let me save even though I have a 8tb drive in there and a fresh new drive. They don’t answer at tech support the phone will ring and a prompt comes on and then you can’t even leave a voicemail for someone to get back to you. Terrible service. Switch over to Studio One 4. I’m trying to learn that DAW and its powerful and has frequent updates and tutorials. Never again with Acid.
Who talks like this? Did the robots get inside the machine already and this is not a real person narrating this video?? lol Just talk normal bro, no need to get all robotic on us...just yet! Very nice and thorough video but the narration voice makes me want to run into a brick wall, lol
This guy's voice is very interested.
The presentation was clear and very informative.
Thank you, thank you!!
Is this commentator human or a robot? I can't tell. The voice is so ...artificial.
Why. Are. You. So. .........Interested.

You are welcome :D
@إسلام فانكي- islam. funky yeh....you can...find it in the audio effect option....or in my opinion use audacity software
I'm going to watch this video again next time I cannot sleep.
wonder if you could help me when i droped the vst on audio thw window doesnt show up even if i click show plugin
Thank you !
I wish there would be more AP8 tuts available on the net.
BTW: If this video used Text to Speech software for the narration, i really would like to know which software that was; although abit robotic sounding, i do like it very much.
Can you make a tutorial about how automation works in this software?
hello what is the best setting for sample rate(hz) and bit depth? I use 88,200(hz) and 24 bit depth for my acid pro mixes is this good?

Remember that this is the new version from MAGIX. They may not know all the history and the bugs of ACID. Let's wait for the first updates!

Not trying to hate but why does it look like it's from 2004??
ACID Pro has been almost a discontinued product until MAGIX has taken it. Let's give to these enough time to play with the graphics!

LoveIsTheAnswer I honestly think this guy just has some advanced text to speech software.
LoveIsTheAnswer I just looked in the description of one of video, and I've come to the conclusion that he hires people to do voiceovers.
Magix is so lazy they have to use text-to-voice software for their tutorials.
why does this guy sound like hes a robot?
