New Pro Audio App?

If only this was a free iApp...

AppleMatt (the dreamer)

I've been using Bias Deck and they haven't had an update to their program for almost 2 years now. It's a nice program, very useable, but needs a lot of extra features to make it more efficient and functional for me---I'm ready to jump ship to a different program, but haven't found one that fits my needs. I like this rumor!!!!

I'm all for a free iApp or perhaps a slimed down version of Soundtrack - Soundtrack Express for $99 anyone?

this should be good, if its anything like FCP it will soon take over and be one of the dominant music apps in the industry

An engineer tool? Perhaps a Reaktor slayer? Would be sweet. No way from Apple though...

Isn't Logic FCP's audio equivalent?

I'd be curious to see exactly what this app is, and what makes it special. We already have Sound Studio, CuBase, Bias Peak, Logic, Soundtrack... What would set this one apart I wonder? If it's a pro app, it is competing with almost all of the apps I mentioned above. If it is an iApp, it won't be for power users, and Sound Studio essentially does everything a casual user needs.

as long as it can sync up with an ipod to take advantage of the *new line-in recording* introduced at MWSF.... :o)

No, no, no!

Sound Studio is a nice app for recording and destructive audio editing. What has been desperately needed for over a decade now is a nice elegant multi-track non-desctructive audio editing application.

For years I was forced to use Premiere for this which worked very well except for the lack of being able to view the audio tracks in a large enough size. Finally after 10 years of begging Adobe to give an option of large workable audio tracks, they do so, but then pull out of the Mac market...UGH!

Final Cut Express works, but again, the audio tracks are too small to work with and the timeline doesn't navigate well.

Really this is something that would be easy to whip up and would be very usefull for DJs and others who want to create mix CDs or do more soundtrack work.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by non-destructive audio editing software, from what it sounds like you want to do couldn't you just use logic? The size of the audio tracks is as big as you want and if you don't want to "destruct" the audio you don't have to.
