The DDP format already replaced the Red Book CDR. This was only available in its “bigger brother” Sequoia before. The DDP export function was missing in previous versions, however this is an essential add-on if you are mastering for cd releases & duplication. The Suite version includes amongst others the full version of Sound Forge Pro 11, the loudness EBU meter (R128/ ITU-R BS.1771), the “Cleaning & Restoration Suite”, as well as the True Peak Limiter, a DDP export function, the ability to create Red Book CDR’s, a new “Encoder Preview” Plug-in and the “Analog Modelling Suite Plus”. Therefore a neutral judgement of the songs and audio material isn’t possible anymore. This is a big plus in Samplitude as other DAW’s have a clearly audible color. This is especially important when mastering, as the sound should not be colored through the audio engine. The used 64 bit hybrid audio engine is very neutral sounding. Projects in the 16 to 32 bit format and sample rates up to 382 kHz are supported. Samplitude Pro X3 allows it to create up to 999 audio- and midi- tracks with 256 in- and outputs. The VCA faders allow it to control grouped tracks the same way as you would on an analog recording console. or if you are planning to integrate an analog summing device.

Thats important for the usage of effects such as reverbs, delays etc. This could be helpful in various recording, scenarios and might be a real time saver.īecause of the new routing manager tracks can be routed pre- or post fader to different outputs. With the new mixer layouts it can be configured individually. It is built up very clearly and its usage can be described as intuitive. First of all we have been taking a closer look at Samplitude ‘s mixer.
