 Loving it March 19, 2010
Kelley Smith (Redding, CA)
I'm completely new to the digital music recording world, so this was my first foray. I love it. I still don't really know how to use it to its full potential, but it's been supereasy to navigate through and just figure out.
I highly recommend it!
Super easy to use, lacking a bit in features December 4, 2009

ACID has to be the easiest sequencer to start out with. If you know the basic terminology of audio production, it will take you less than 5 minutes to be recording and arranging both audio and MIDI tracks.
If you're looking to create a demo or just record some of your own songs, this program is perfect. It still has its looping roots, so it excels at that too, but in the past couple of versions they have really beefed up the sequencer piece.
The included effects are useable. Nothing outstanding, but not horrible. They include a 3-band graphic EQ, a 7-band graphic EQ, a compressor, a delay, a chorus, a flanger/wah, a tremelo (amplitude mod.), and a reverb. There is also a distortion plug-in, but it is pretty useless as it sounds ugly.
Luckily, these effects can be easily supplemented with the vast number of free VST and DX plugins available around the web.
Effects can be assigned per track, or over the entire project. Busses can be created, but not saved. Apparently this is available in the Pro version.
The program is able to record in 8-bit or 16-bit (sadly, no 24-bit is enabled - you have to get the $200 Pro version for that). I would have loved to see 24-bit support, as my hardware supports it, but for $50 it's hard to complain.
Overall, if you're looking for a sequencer/DAW for under $100, this is the best of the bunch. If you're planning to move up to Cubase, Logic, or ProTools later, you might want to check out their "LE" versions, but for the amateur producer, it doesn't get much easier to start than with ACID.
 Good for Semi-Pro November 17, 2009

This product is excellent for what it's intended: semi-pro music loop creation! It is cost-effective and accurate, though compared to its revolutionary but retired grandpa Acid Pro 4.0 it lacks the 5.1 Surround sound option, which is a must for most modern video-sound creators. It can be used also as multi-track mixer for podcast, audiobooks, radio drama, etc. All in all, MS-7 is great for semi-pros.
great and cheap November 8, 2009

This software was only $48 and it has tons loops included. The workstation structure is useful. I think I got a bargain.
ACID Music Studio is great October 17, 2009

I purchased this program in hopes to start creating my own music. So far, it's worked like a champ. I'm not the most experienced, but I've been able to even create my own acapella songs. They're not great, but that's not because of the program. I need to learn to sing better. LOL!!!!
And the nice thing is, it isn't hard to use. I installed it, and within about 30 minutes I had created my first song. Short, but it did what I wanted.
I can also atest to the program working okay in that my other half now keeps complaining about all the racket in the computer room!
In closing, I do like the program and I do recommend it for someone who's looking to create their own music.
