As a result, application A may again find less than ideal environment conditions while app B is happy.

Then there's the incredible complexity of the whole system "DAW", which has become somewhat manageable but still - there's software (the DAW software plus all related drivers) applying all sorts of voodoo tricks to pinch "realtime" out of an OS that's not particularily apt for "realtime" and of course a gazillion of possible hardware/software combinations. That's only 2 very simple examples of user error that look exactly like "app A is buggy" while it's actually not true. In other cases (I assume the majority) it may be plain wrong: The user may have applied and forgotten some seemingly unrelated OS tweak 3yrs ago that makes application A trip now, or a system DLL is slightly outdated because the user refuses to keep his OS updated and app A relies partially on the newer version. The equation "Application A doesn't work while application B works = App A's fault" is only correct in some cases (which may turn out to be a genuine bug in the application).
This is often not that easy, if not a common misconception and it's also being used to prove hypothetical points against Reaper. My final thoughts are, after spending $489.00 on Acid Pro 7, I'll be sticking with Reaper because it just works first time every time. When I did this test with Reaper, I didn't change anything on my Profile 2626 I just installed reaper and off I went.
I also found out that there is a major grievance between the developers of Acid and Sony, I guess being such a huge corporation, they'll go where the money is instead of looking after the Acid Pro Community. Yet the only difference is that Reaper works and Acid doesn't. The program I am referring to is called Reaper Version 3.104 rev: 8479Īs soon as I installed it, I saw frightening similarities to that of ACID Pro 7 and this kinda made me feel at home. I managed to prove that it was Sony Acid Pro 7 and none of my hardware. So I went and inserted the Ozone 4 Plugin to the Drum Tracks, then I went to pick on the 3 vocal tracks and I started to pile on the Ozone plugins as well as mix a few Waves Plugins this went on for hours and still no crash! I have now covered 28 Tracks all assigned with iZotope and Waves including a few Sony Plugins chained up in sets of around 4 to a track, yet still I wasn't able to make this program crash. The first thing I did was imported my 28 Audio wave files and I wanted to also push the envelope to see if my issue was elsewhere other than ACID Pro. I found this demo to have the similar look and feel to that of ACID PRO 7.

So today I did some research on the web and downloaded a trial unrestricted Demo which I am able to run for 30 Days. But when I added the plugin to a third track, Acid would splutter, snap, crackle and POP and eventually die a miserable death. With Acid Pro 7 I was able to run two instances of Ozone 4 across 2 separate tracks, this worked OK. With my latest findings, I think that many users of ACID Pro will also be astonished by this.Īs I stated in my previous Post, my favorite Plugin is Ozone 4 by iZotope, it has great Drum and Bass pre-set sounds which literally are the best I have heard. Re-Acid Pro7 running with 3rd Party Plugins. This is in reference to my other post I made earlier today on the ACID Pro Forum, I thought that you guy's may find it very interesting.
