Apple's Soundtrack now Standalone
Per MacMinute, Apple announced that Soundtrack will be offered as a standalone product in August.
Soundtrack was originally introduced as an additional feature accompanying Final Cut Pro 4.
Soundtrack includes more than 4,000 royalty-free, professionally-recorded audio loops and sound effects, giving creative professionals such as video editors, DVD authors and web developers a powerful and easy-to-use tool to create high-quality music scores. Soundtrack scales to meet the needs of audio producers, DJs and remix artists who start their projects in Soundtrack and then migrate to a digital audio workstation, such as Logic or Pro Tools, for the rest of their work.
