 |
|
Does anybody know of a program which will do the sorts of things that Acid does, preferably free- or maybe share-ware? I'm particularly interested in the "painting with loops" aspect, using loops that I've recorded myself; so recording facilities, MIDI etc. aren't important.
The ability to read saved Acid projects would be great, but I don't realistically expect to find that.
I used to use Acid Music 3, and got on well with it... I say "used to", because after reinstalling everything on a new computer I discovered that I couldn't find the serial number for Acid, and since mine was bought from Sonic Foundry I didn't reckon I stood much chance of getting it back from Sony.  In any case, I don't do music very much any more, but I do have a few old projects that I'd like to finish off if I could. |

Thanks userdude, Kristal and DDClip both look worth checking out, although neither seems to offer the loop-based approach I was after.
However major thanks for reminding me about Acid Express. See, I said I'd been out of the loop for a while (pun intended).  I should be able to open most of my projects with it, I don't think I went above 10 tracks.
I look like this now   |
