Visualize volume, frequency and phase for selected tracks. Take advantage of customizable interfaces and automations that will redefine efficiency in your own personal workflow!

Recording

Samplitude works using full bit transparency for absolute sound neutrality. The consistent use of floating point calculations ensures that your sound retains its character, even after extensive digital processing. The result – transparency, neutrality, retention of transients and spatiality.

Sophisticated recording
Samplitude Pro X8 stands for the highest level of audio quality and stability, even in complex recording sessions. With a total of 999 tracks and up to 256 physical inputs and outputs, working on large projects is no problem at all. Use common audio formats from 16-bit to 32-bit floating point as well as sample rates up to 384 kHz.

Take Composer
The Take Composer clearly displays all the recordings of a passage. This feature offers a specially optimized cutting tool to combine the takes in the context of the arrangement to get a perfect end result.

Editing

Editing is one of the core competencies in Samplitude. With time-saving workflows, flexible docking options and ultra-precise tools, users can work in a production environment that’s perfectly customized to their needs so they can concentrate fully on projects.

Edit objects in the arranger
In addition to standard options for track-related editing, Samplitude also features object-based editing options. Set fades with customized curves, decrease or increase volume using the mouse, and trim or stretch sections. For detailed editing options, you can double-click to open the object editor to discover even more possibilities for modifying your sound.

Virtual effects for individual files: Object editor
Focus on the object level and integrate individual clips in the mix. This way, you don’t need to create new tracks for short sections that are in projects with complex arrangements and longer duration. Apply effects or route objects to AUX and Surround busses. From fades to effect and pitch editing, all edits you make are non-destructive and are calculated during playback. So there’s plenty of room for experimentation.

Precise crossfade editing
The crossfade editor has been completely redesigned and now features an impressively efficient and modern design. It provides you with an optimal overview of all essential parameters, which you can access even faster through snapshots. You can also benefit from the new audio object view, which can be edited directly in the editor.

ARA2 support
Edit projects on a whole new level of musicality. ARA supports integration of Celemony Melodyne and others and enables the direct transfer of tempo and pitch values as well as volume and intonation. The new ARA2 lets you work faster and more efficiently in realtime, for simultaneous editing of multiple tracks and clean transitions between clips without crossfades.

Celemony Melodyne essential
Melodyne essential allows for pitch correction at the top level of quality. Specialized algorithms enable you to manipulate acoustic character, timing, duration and pitch for individual notes within your recordings.

Automation Shapes
Set curve types to simplify your workflow further. Use Automation Shapes to build gradual transitions between two points in an automation. Are there still issues with the audio? Not any more with Samplitude.

zplane algorithm
Use the latest zplane algorithm, élastique Pro v3, for time stretching and pitch shifting. This algorithm uses the latest findings from signal processing theory and combines these with psycho-acoustic models. Higher, wider or faster – great sound is always the result.

Copy content across projects
Easily copy tracks, even across projects. Switch between tabs for open projects and start copying content. Simply use the checklist to choose which settings you want to transfer – for instance VST plug-ins, AUX busses, or submix busses. This makes your arranging and editing workflow much more streamlined.

Custom modifications
You can customize the interface in Samplitude to suit your own workflow. For instance, VST instruments can now be renamed to simplify your workflow, regardless of manufacturer specifications. You can now also select multiple tracks at once and adjust their height simultaneously.

Music production

Discover a source of creative inspiration that never runs dry – with practical aids for composition, plus a huge range of tools for creating and modulating sound.

MIDI in Samplitude

A combination of extensive MIDI functionality and smooth workflows enables you to bring musical ideas to life on a professional level.

Support for MIDI VST plug-ins
The new Samplitude Pro X8 now allows you to use MIDI plug-ins. This opens up brand-new possibilities for music production. Make use of the wide variety of MIDI plug-ins available and combine as many plug-ins as you want. In addition, the new plug-in support allows you to freely route MIDI signals.

MIDI Polyphonic Expression
Add expression: MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE for short) transmits only a single note per channel, but with all parameters. This way, compatible controllers such as the ROLI Seaboard can output at their full potential. Want to create a more rhythmic solo, or lower harmonies with sustain? MPE makes it easy.

Advanced MIDI controller editing
Transfer the extremely detailed modulation curves from your best takes to other controller lanes. Select the desired sections, e.g., for volume, and paste them onto any sub-tracks you want. Enjoy more creative freedom for highly expressive compositions.

MIDI editor
The MIDI editor integrates various applications, views, ranges, and tools. The MIDI parameter editing tool can be accessed here at all times: Selected events (e.g. velocity or pitch bend) can be moved, stretched or compressed and scaled in relation to each other in various ways. MIDI quantization is also possible without any additional steps.

Music notation
From initial idea to finished score: Music notation in Samplitude Pro X5 displays MIDI data as notes in realtime. Your edits are transferred directly to the MIDI editor. Notations can be edited using the parameters pitch, velocity and length. When you’re finished, you can publish the data as sheet music. If you import a MIDI file with lyric markers, the text is displayed in the score.

Drum Editor
This alternative to the classic piano roll view has been specially designed for programming drums. Transfer note settings to other channel strips and quantize individual elements or assign them a new output channel if necessary. The editor can be displayed in Matrix mode with conventional parameters or in cell mode. This way, quantization for note length and snapping to grid can be implemented more easily.

Mixing

Intuitive mixing, flexible routing and new automation functions for complex recording tasks – on up to 999 tracks. Practical for all productions, ideal for larger arrangements. Now with the improved Pan/Surround dialog!

Monitoring Section
A central hardware controller with a plethora of cables are now a thing of the past. The new Monitoring Section in Samplitude Pro X6 offers unprecedented flexibility. You can now access multiple monitoring paths, with or without additional effects. Play back your configurations and integrate talkback if you want – this can be done easily using the mouse or shortcuts.

Tempo Track
Tempo now has its own track and offers extra functions. You can automate tempo in a free and uninhibited way, whether to create a wild transition between a slow introduction passage and a faster verse, or build sound throughout a symphony in an inspiring way. Buttons above act as helpful markers for beat and tempo change.

Flexible rendering of project material with track output recording
When you record the output of a track, you usually record what you hear, not what you feed into the track. Samplitude saves your project material cleanly, giving you total control over the next steps. Enjoy full flexibility for rendering your project material and for experimenting with effects afterwards.

Easily search for and locate presets in the plug-in browser
The plug-in browser extension means you can now access the right sounds directly and quickly. Use the search function to find suitable plug-in presets for your sound. Save your favorites for easy access in the future and display all available instruments and effects using keywords and filters. Rediscover the potential of your entire plug-in collection – simply search, locate and then shape your own custom sound.

Improved user-friendliness
The mixer and plug-in browser can now be docked, making all elements easily and quickly accessible. They also scale to fit any window size. Not only can you now enjoy a clearer interface, but can drag & drop your plug-ins from the plug-in browser into your project.

Integrate external hardware effects as plug-ins
Samplitude Pro X8 enables you to make the most of new connectivity for external hardware effects, which can be integrated into your project as effect plug-ins. Not only does this simplify working with effect devices, you can also import as many external effects as you want into your project via the plug-in browser. You’ll also experience more creative possibilities and enhanced flexibility for routing, too.

Automation Lanes with advanced copy functions
Track automation in Samplitude Pro X6 can now be displayed across several sub-tracks, known as “lanes”. You can display and edit any number of track parameters such as volume, panorama or effect settings simultaneously. Select particularly detailed or complex curves and copy them simultaneously to any number of automation lanes on other tracks. For example, you can assign identical volume curves to any grouped instruments.

Vandal
Every component of the guitar and bass amplifier, from the tube to the speaker coils, is virtualized right down to the last detail. Physical modeling technology guarantees great sound without compromise. Vandal SE contains four stomp boxes, 50 presets and three different miking arrangements.

The essentialFX Suite
